i’d like to hear more about how you will determine the kind of imagery you will generate, and what you are saying with it. that is the weak spot, and obviously very key to the project. several thoughts:
through this almost mystical revelation (a la poltergeist, static-as-revelation)
is it your soul?
is it your connection to others?
is it psychological?
is it neurological – as in, can you create something that stimulates the cortex? so it’s not just representational but also physiological?

So you probably won't get the speed you need out of either steppers or servos to create a standing wave that matches the frequency of your tone. For more on steppers (you don't really need the ez-stepper) see http://www.tigoe.net/pcomp/code/circuits/motors/stepper-motors Happy to talk more about it in office hours too.
