contents This study presents a novel method for generating music visualisers using diffusion models, combining audio input with user-selected artwork. The process involves two main stages: image generation and video creation. First, music captioning and genre classification are performed, followed by the retrieval of artistic style descriptions. A diffusion model then generates images based on the user's input image and the derived artistic style descriptions. The video generation stage utilises the same diffusion model to interpolate frames, controlled by audio energy vectors derived from key musical features of harmonics and percussives. The method demonstrates promising results across various genres, and a new metric, Audio-Visual Synchrony (AVS), is introduced to quantitatively evaluate the synchronisation between visual and audio elements. Comparative analysis shows significantly higher AVS values for videos generated using the proposed method with audio energy vectors, compared to linear interpolation. This approach has potential applications in diverse fields, including independent music video creation, film production, live music events, and enhancing audio-visual experiences in public spaces.
