Project Description:
Music Visualizer is a procedurally generated music visualizer made with Unity that is inspired by the LGBTQ+ community of Savannah. Dancers of indiscriminate race and gender move to the music in front of a lone figure journeying through ever-changing scenes. The dancers were created with Make Human software, an application that customizes a base humanoid figure based on dozens of finely adjustable parameters, including gender, race and body type. Creating persons free from the constraints of binary concepts was liberating. I mapped animations to the dancers in Blender and outputted the animated models to Unity. The application was originally projected as visuals to accompany a show at Oil Club in Shenzhen, China and has been shown at various music events in Savannah, Georgia.

Notes:
You do not have control over the figure's movements in this version as it was meant to run endlessly as visuals accompanying a music set. It would be fun to play with movement and exploration in later versions.

The original version takes input from your computers microphone. The sound from the microphone will alter the yellow bars in front of the camera.
