Presentation:

  "Processing"
  Gabriel Dunne, Designer, Tessellated Group LLC

    Processing ( http://processing.org/ ) is a popular open source
    programming language and environment used by scientists and
    artists alike to to create images, animations, and interactive
    exhibits.

    Built on the work of an earlier MIT Media Lab project, and initially
    developed to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals
    of computer programming within a visual context, Processing has
    evolved into a tool for generating finished professional work. Today,
    there are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers,
    researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning,
    prototyping, and production.

    Processing is free, and cross-platform, running on Windows and Mac
    OS X, as well as Linux.
