Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to create images, animations, and interactions. Initially developed to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context, Processing also 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.

I Played with this App for a Couple of Hours. I like it quite a bit. First, I copied some Example Code from here, http://processing.org/learning/basics/. Then, I Combined "Wave Gradient" and "Clock" and made a Hypnotic "sketch" of moving lines and Colors. The Processing App it's self, told me where my errors were (some duplicate code that was in both examples). And it highlighted them too. So, I just deleted them until there were now more errors. Then my new creation ran perfectly, when I hit the Play Button. The result was a Hypnotic Video of Moving lines and Colors. That seems could Hypnotize me, if I stared at it too long!;) Processing can save your work as an Applet, (which saves your work in an HTML file). Check mine out here, http://bishopco.homeip.net/applet/ Or you can save your work as an Application, (which saves it as a real Application). Then I noticed the Movie Maker App. It can take a whole folder of Images and add an audio file, to make a Quick Time Movie. It works well and is pretty fast at Processing the images into a Movie. I did notice the no matter which size that I selected (using images of different sizes, heights and widths). That, some images came out looking "Fat" (I was too wide, wider than normal). I tried all Compression settings (Animation, JPEG, PNG) and also "Original Width" and the Default (640x480). But seemed to get the same results with all settings. So, I wouldn't want to make a Music Slide Show of People with this App. Not unless there is a way to fix this. Also, the shortest "Frame Rate" you can select is 1 second. The Default is 30 Frames Per Second. Which makes sense for Video. But not for a Slide Show. The Pics went by in a flash! I wanted to make the Pics stay up longer, so that I could fill the entire time of my song. But, you will just have to have more images, to make this work (since 1 second is the longest you can make them stay up). Still, it's a really cool Application with allot of Possibilities...
