Jython + P5 ??
« on: Jul 21st, 2003, 10:39pm » |

I've been doing some work lately with jython (a Java implementation of Python) and I was thinking that it would be *very* bad ass if the core concept and code of p5 could be integrated as a library for Jython.
Now, don't get me wrong, I love p5, but I tend to find that I can code much faster in python than p5 or Java. If you folks making p5 are interested in this, let me know, I'd be more than happy to help out or even lead the effort.
Oh, and a bit about me... I'm part of Web Graphics group at SIGGRAPH and got interested in this project when I was evaluating it for inclusion in conference. Since then, my partner Josh Davis kicked me a build of p5 and I've been hooked. I'm really looking forward to meeting you guys at SIGGRAPH!

hey there,
sadly i won't be able to make it to the siggraph thing, but casey will be there, and i'm looking forward to our being able to have the environment shown there. we're really excited to have been chosen by the mysterious evaluation committee 
regarding python, someone mentioned this before, so this has some general background:
http://proce55ing.net/discourse/yabb/board_Proce55ing_Software__action_display_num_1034678768.html
in short, we'd be interested in jython/python, we've done a bit with it before, but have so far been low on resources to do it, so it would be way low on our list of priorities. maybe it'll be a post-1.0 thing or a side project, but it might be fun to get python people playing with p5, since python can be a great teaching language and i know it has a great community behind it.

Ah, too bad you won't be there - I was looking forward to meeting you both!
As for Jython and P5 - as soon as you guys release the source of P5 I'll happily start to poke around and see how Jython could hook into the system. I don't have much of a background in Jython, but from a combination of my Python background and what I've been reading the initial hooks shouldn't be too difficult. Some of the export to Applet stuff may be a bit more tricky, but I think it can be done.
Anyways, thanks for responding and I'm looking forward to the beta!

Re: Jython + P5 ?? ==> JSyn + P5

hmm.. Like Python another interesting Jython hookup is JSyn - Java Synthesis by Phil Burke, with stellar help from Nick Didkovsky and others.
JSyn + P5 ?
http://www.softsynth.com/jsyn/
JSyn works with Jython and makes a delicious combination I am told
Here's a fun taste of what Jsyn can do:

'JLooch' by Brad Garton is a fun one you can leave running and tweak for hours. To me it sounds/feels much like P5 demos look/feel

Perhaps this has already been discussed. I am new here, [5mins] but the Jython post caught my eye at once.
