Processing.js/Presentation
Background
- Matthew
- What is Processing.js?
- a JS port of the visual media programming language P5
- PJS outputs the picture/animation/etc. to the new HTML5 canvas element
- cadre of Seneca students, joined by others through the Internet, have been working to complete the port since Fall 2009
- Where did it come from?
- Processing
- An open source Java-based visual media programming language
- Developed by Ben Fry and Casey Reas at MIT as an educational tool
- Has since gone on to be used in industry and spread over the Internet
- http://www.openprocessing.org/
- Continues to spread: Fry employed by Google to bring P5 to the Android OS for mobile devices
- P5 comes with its own development environment which can export "sketches" as a Java applet
- Applets can be embedded in websites asd usual
- A short demonstration of the PDE
- Processing
- PJS - what are we trying to accomplish

- demos/examples, color picker, thumbnail viewer, Andor's crayon sketch ?
- difficulties. performance issues
- how seneca open source courses helped me realize the power of community
