    This looks very cool, but it's not clear what it means.

    I wonder if it is captivating simply because it syncs cool graphics to audio, like those Winamp visualization filters in the old days.

    I can’t say for certain but I’m nearly positive I’ve seen ads for this on Facebook or Insta or something like that.

      There seems to be some additional information in a video on the creator's YouTube page:

      edit: There appears to be more information in a variety of the creator's videos, but it looks like the projection from birdsong-to-3D is (probably simplified) taking the Mel spectrogram (40 features from this, unclear as to what they are) and passing it to PCA to get 3D vectors.

      The creator discusses a real-time version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prhQqpAxrm8
