How do I make a custom screensaver that isn't just a glorified slideshow? Something dynamic or procedurally generated.

Learn C#

Screensavers are just programs. Learn to program, snag an API for a music visualizer program, feed it randomly generated data, voila, randomly generated screensaver.

Interesting choice.

Specifics depend on the OS/DE. Fruitful angles of things to display include fractals, multidimensional Perlin noise, plasma, rotozoomers, cellular automata systems, keftales, etc.

Shit uses CPU, electricity, generates heat. Dont forget that.
