Although if the VLM doesn't sync to music itself, there's no reason why you couldn't just put a CD in your hi-fi and play along to that instead :-)

I'm not saying it won't be cool - I'm pretty sure it will be - but I can do this on my VLM-I too.

People are far more audio-reactive than code is anyway.

And it's a social thing, too - four people in the Good Ship VLM, heading out for polyfractal L-space, where all the various dimensions come together for a cup of tea and a biscuit...

Reminds me of my goof when playing with controller zero... there was some massive buildup and I knew it was about to change, and I was all ready to hit the "next pattern" key in time... and I was about five seconds early

Wow... Yes, I am indeed over the bloody moon...

Ok, so at heart I'm a retro person, but for this I think I'm gonna have to buy a cube. And to be honest, I'm proud to say that now...

Jeff, I'm not gonna try and give advice or anything, just make us all the happy tripping grinny mental people that you know you want us to be...

And we'll love you forever

/me hugs Jeff

Congratulations...

Well, there's a reason it isn't audio-reactive - Yak has no beat detection code in place - yet.

Keep in mind that the GC has a multi-read laser, and with the wide availability (in the US at least) of mini-CDRs, you could slap a couple hundred megabytes of MP3s on one and pop it into your GC for some true VLM goodness...
