I've been wondering about 'audio visualization' lately as well...  
wondering
what s/w might be available to accomplish this.   I'm curious to see
responses to this thread

Subject: OT: sound to picture metamorphosis

Lying in the sun, I've been thinking about a sound to picture  
metamorphosis  - maybe just an early sign of a sunstroke ;-).

Wouldn't it be nice, if some entity (probably in the form of an  
ingenious program) could visualize what we play? And I'm not talking  
about a notation program or a spectrum analyzer. What I have in mind  
is more like a painting that is created in real-time based on what is  
played. I know there's software (e.g Metasynth) that does the  
opposite, that is images are translated to sound. Any comments on this?
