I have a mild case of synesthesia and this is one of the closest things I have seen/heard (:) ) that comes close-ish to capturing how I see/feel when I experience great music.
Of course, I was not surprised to see the creator of the video list a similar motivation in his caption for the upload.
Don't understand the downvote. The first video may seem arbitrary to people not familiar with jazz theory but it's a really good representation of the structure of one of clotrane's most emblematic song. Thanks for sharing !
The downvote wasn't me but I'll agree that this doesn't seem much more related to the music than any visual synced to the tempo. Coltrane's drawing captures a system that could be used by other musicians to create new musical ideas or theories. They're very different things so the video seems off-topic to me.

It perfectly shows the structure of the music. The later music video One (set to music of Jason Lindner) is also beautiful:
