Processing

in geek, tech

I’ve been playing with the Java-based visualization language Processing a bit. Since a client had casually mentioned the idea of some kind of iTunes-like image viewer, I made that my first project.

It’s not perfect by far (it would be nice if it rotated both directions) but I got about as far with it as I could with my limited patience. Still, my first 3D program! My 10-year-old BASIC programming self would be so proud.

This uses seven random photos from my Flickr account:

Apropos of this I’m looking forward to the O’Reilly Emerging Technology conference again this year (thanks Brady!), where I’ll be attending this tutorial on web-based visualizations, focusing on Processing. Honestly, though, I’ll probably have more fun at Food Hacking.
