Introduction

The goal of this project is to develop a method to generate models by simply providing a music (or sound waves) as parameter to the script. I used Autodesk Maya and its Python scripting interface to accomplish the model generating process. Before generating, I use a Node.js script to analyze and reshape the sound wave to make it able to be processed on Maya.

Here is an early approach, mapping sound wave frequencies to a height map and use shaders to map the height map onto model surfaces.
