A Peek At the Origin of PS3's New Visualizer

Folks at the Gamasutra network had a quick sitdown with the Q-Games team, the people behind the PlayStation 3's new Gaia music visualizer. They discuss the origins of the project, as well as some possible plans for the future. "McLaren explains: 'This representation of the earth is a 3D model with some shaders and SPU trickery going on. We tried to accurately model the earth's atmosphere and have all the correct highlights on the oceans, etc. The texture data is sourced from the NASA Blue Marble project.'"

Good visualizers for Windows or Linux?

[Jah-Wren Ryel]

Any recommendations for good (and free, but not necessarily Free) music visualizers for Windows or maybe linux?

This is slashdot, so I'm sure no one will believe me, but I'm looking for something I can put on my projector and will look cool projected onto the bodies of drunk, semi-naked dancing girls. Yes, being semi-naked is not enough, they gotta have cool computer graphics on them to be interesting.
