Not trying to do this myself, but I am curious as to how you would even begin to design something like this:

Notice how the circle expands on the beats and singer's voice? Is that something there is a component for or would you have to add each instance of that in the time line? I can't imagine someone having the patience to do that manually.

Probably a mixture of ComputeSoundSpectrum and cue points in the streaming media. Extremely well done.

She not only sounds good, but looks ok as well, and does not appear to need much in the way of studio trickery and augmentation.

I love seeing SWF being elevated to art, that movie is very nice.
