Processing Experiments #1

| I've gotten into Processing lately. It's pretty sweet. I've been meaning to do more with generative graphics and animation and now I have a good tool to explore with. |

Check out my first Processing app here → square_flower
(Ok maybe it's not my first, but it is the first one I thought cool enough to post here)
If you don't know what Processing is, it's an easy-to-use language focused on programming (potentially interactive) graphics and animation. Here's the official Processing site if you want to know more.

Re: Processing #1: square_flower
Nice work!
Did you have any goals for learning Processing? It seems like there is some opportunity for RAD-style development of musical interfaces, with readily-available OSC and midi modules and all.
Re: Processing #1: square_flower
Definitely! Although my immediate goal is not to build musical interfaces, that is something I am interested in exploring. First I'm going to experiment with generative graphics that are synced to my music (ok, ok, I want to make trippy visualizations), and maybe abstract mathematical patterns that can generate both video and audio.
Looking ahead, I am really curious how Processing, Max/MSP, and Ableton Live will play together. I think they will be the best of friends :)
