An information processing apparatus is provided that includes a playback unit to play back music data, an analysis unit to analyze a feature of a relevant image of the music data, an image correction unit to perform image correction with use of any of a plurality of correction types, a storage unit to store one or more than one image, a selection unit to select a correction type corresponding to the feature of the relevant image analyzed by the analysis unit from the plurality of correction types, a correction control unit to cause the image correction unit to perform image correction of an image stored in the storage unit with use of the correction type selected by the selection unit, and an output unit to output the image corrected by the image correction unit.
1. An information processing apparatus embodied in a computer having a microprocessor, the apparatus comprising:
an analysis unit to analyze a feature of a reference image relevant to audio data;
an image selection unit to select one or more images based on a mood of the audio data;
a layout control unit to separate the audio data into a plurality of time frames, wherein the image selection unit selects a number of images based on a number of the time frames;
a selection unit to select an image modification type based on the feature of the reference image from a plurality of image modification types;
an image correction unit to modify the selected one or more images with use of the selected image modification type;
a control unit, performed by the computer, to cause the image correction unit to modify the selected one or more images with use of the modification type selected by the selection unit; and
an output unit to output the modified one or more images with the audio data.
2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a creation unit to create a display screen including the modified one or more images.
3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the selected image modification type includes a change to a visual effect performed on the one or more images; and
the control unit causes the image correction unit to change the visual effect over a lapse of time.
4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the image selection unit selects the one or more images further based on one of a release date, title, genre of the audio data.
5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
