Why am I doing this?

Some of the reasons why I'm getting involved in this project:

1. Feeling quite isolated as a correspondence student, I thought this might be a golden opportunity to get involved in an interesting project.
2. I have also been looking for opportunities to get more experience in academic writing.
3. I love programming.
4. I am all for community involvement in projects. It provides opportunities for those who would like to contribute.
5. An opportunity to learn more about something I didn't know before, ie the Processing IDE and Computational Art.
