Abstract
Methods, devices, media, and other embodiments are described for generating, modifying, and outputting pseudorandom animations that can be synchronized to audio data. In one embodiment, a computer animation model made up of comprising one or more control points is accessed by one or more processors, which associate motion patterns with a first control point of the one or more control points, and associate one or more speed harmonics with the first control point. A set of motion states is identify with a motion state for the combinations of possibilities, and a probability value is assigned to each motion state of the set of motion states. The probability value can be used to probabilistically determine a particular motion state to be part of displayed animation for the computer animation model.
