    . During the process of the visualization, pitch and volume is extracted by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), to produce a fractal animation using the fundamental frequency of a current audio sample of the input music. This combination of pitch and volume is used to render a specific Julia Set fractal belonging to the Mandelbrot Set, creating an intuitive and interesting audio visualizer for all to enjoy. 10:00am – PhysiCL Ben Warner (BA/3-2 Eng.)
