Both Totem and Rhythm Box include a funky animation that appears during music playback. Animations such as this are known as visualizations, but out of the box Ubuntu includes only one, rather than the hundreds found on the likes of Mac OS or Windows media players. However, you can add more to Ubuntu, for use in both Totem and Rhythm Box, by using Synaptic to search for and install the libvisual-0.4- plugins package.
Once the package has been installed, to change the visualization in Totem that appears when a music track is playing, click Edit→Preferences, select the Display tab in the dialog box that appears, and make your choice from the Type of visualization drop-down list. Your choice will take effect immediately,so drag the Preferences dialog box out of the way to preview it.
In Rhythm Box, click View→Visualization to start the animation, and then select from the drop-down list beneath the visualization.
