all kinds of AWESOME.

i've been flitting around the place and found some cool stuff, most of which has been nicked from pixelsumo, but it's cool none the less.

started off looking around the processing blogs, seeing more of what's possible (it seems asking what isn't possible with processing would be the easier option). and found some nice videos:


Traffic Sketch 2 from Mark Chadwick on Vimeo.

and some nice images:

i also looked into how people used processing to hack existing hardware, such as this hack by Daniel Shiffman, who has hacked a LED tile which is pretty mesmerizing. And here he' controlling a program made in processing, by calling it on his phone:

blinks and buttons is a project using processing (and mobile processing) and the flickr API. they've made a table with a screen full of photos, which then projects photos taken at the same time along the side through a glass stone. And a camera which takes other peoples photos. You simply press the shutter button at the moment you want to remember, and the camera contacts flickr which then sends you a photo taken by someone else at the same time. which is a nice idea methinks.

nothing to do with processing but when i found it i thought it was just that clever that i had to post it. here marc owen has created an avatar machine, which lets you walk around in real life viewing yourself as you would view an avatar.
