Title: Mario's Back - in Graphical MIDI Form!
Post by: David on November 26, 2007, 02:30:56 AM

There's a fellow out there who wrote a program called The Music Animation Machine (http://www.musanim.com/).  This piece of software plays MIDI files with animated graphics (akin to visualizers in other programs).  What make this worthy of a TMK post is that some lovely folks in Japan used this program to make an graphical Mario MIDI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wkI7hg65F0).

Interesting, don't you think?

More information, and a few other game MIDI videos, are available on his MAM MIDI Player on Nico Nico Douga (http://www.musanim.com/niconicodouga/) page (Nico Nico Douga being a Japanese video and commentary site).

Go take a look!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wkI7hg65F0

Holy awesome. I was about to go to sleep but I had to watch all six of the guy's vids.

This one has the best graphical effects -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASXnFRYf6LI

After watching six of those scrolly things in a row, everything I looked at appeared all wavy. :P

Now, that is extremely clever! Extremely!

I also had somewhat distorted vision after watching these...
