The web browser version of Google Play Music isn't exactly full-featured - it pales in comparison even to built-in tools like Windows Media Player or iTunes. But now it has one more tool that's bringing it a little closer: a visualizer. A visualizer is an overlay that presets a visual accompaniment to a musical track. Some of them get pretty elaborate, some of them aren't much more than a graphic equalizer.

[New App] Radiohead's First Android Foray Will Take You On A Visual Musical Journey You Probably Won't Make Sense Of
English rock band Radiohead could just release another album, but there are certain experiences that music alone cannot provide.

Audio Glow Music Visualizer And Live Wallpaper Updated To 2.0 With Swipe Controls And A New Visualization Style
We featured Audio Glow when it launched in November of last year. This ultra-stylish music visualizer takes the basic visual component of classic hi-fi systems and gives it a fresh coat of paint. It's gained quite a following thanks to eye-popping visuals and a huge degree of customization. Today's version 2.0 update adds some interesting options, most notably the new "Glowing Strings" visualization, below.
This nifty option is available as a $1 in-app purchase for the main Music Visualizer app, but the developer has kindly included a 5-minute preview that you can check out before buying.

Bjork's 'Biophilia' Mixed Album-App Experience Brings Quirky Educational Content To The Play Store, Feels Like An Acid Trip
Bjork's Biophilia part-album, part-app is an educational experience that teaches kids both about music and the natural sciences.

At some point there appears to be a dis-embodied pelvis making love with the moon, suggesting that some type of abstract sexual education may have slipped in as well.

How To: Create A Customized Android Phone 7 Theme - Part 1
About a month ago, XDA-Devs member newone757 created a really great theme based on the one used in Windows Phone 7 - hence the name, Android Phone 7. He was kind enough to post the image files, a template image, and a short how-to, as well. I've taken the personalization a step further and created icons to fit my needs, and now it's your turn.
This theme was made for, and written using, a high resolution device (EVO 4G - 800x480).
