Mood-dependent wallpaper? Weather-dependent Music Selection?

A Dynamic playlist bias that chooses tracks based on weather is
definitely doable.

The _huge_ hurdle, however, choosing songs based on weather data. The
easiest option seems to be have a static set of weather conditions
matched with common genres. This is flawed of course, because 1) who
would do the matching, 2) many users don't have correct genre tags.

The ideal solution would be some a bias that uses one of those music
analysis algorithms that have been much discussed on this list.
