processing

David recommened me to learn processing. In my opinion, it is like a software to me to make things work, but it is a computer program. To be honest, I know nothing about computer program, even what's the different between software and computer program.

Looking at processing.org and openprocessing.org

First i looked at the exhibition, to find out what exact it does. I can probably find some ideas through some projects that people finished, because only through the computer program I couldn't understand if it is helpful or not. Later, i find something useful to my project, such as: soundmachines

                                                       http://vimeo.com/35014340

which is very interesting, we can create a simple music by use this. And this is also cool work http://vimeo.com/25224777 (I can add the video, so i just add the link). And many other cool opuses.

From what i saw,"processing" is necessary, but i am also scared. Bucause it is to difficul for me to write the computer program. Maybe, i can learn some simple ones in this short time but impossible for me to do a work like any of this. Contrast with many situations, I may give up learning computer programs for now. If l need, l will let my friends help. When l have time, I will still let my friend to look at it first, then teach me, make sure I grasp the basic then study myself.
