Andrew Glassner has made an 8 week course about the graphics language Processing. The first half of the course is free; if you find you like it, the second half is just $25. Even if you don’t want to take the course, you should watch the 2.5 minute video at the site – beware, it may change your mind. The video gives a sense of the power of Processing and some of the wonderful things you can do with it. My small bit of experience with the language showed me it’s a nice way to quickly display and fiddle around with all sorts of graphical ideas. While I dabbled for a week, Andrew used it for half a decade and has made some fascinating programs. Any language that can have such a terrible name and still thrive in so many ways definitely has something going for it.
