iTunes has a wonderful "Visualisation" mode which generates amazing visual effects on screen keyed in to the music. To tune the Visuals on use Command-T. Now some of the keys on the keyboard will control the algorithm which generates the colours and effects on screen. In particular W controls the wave form, S the effect, and X the colour. Briefly hold down the relevant key until there is a change. The name of the current effect is displayed top right on the screen.
