I'm a multimedia art student with absolutely no experience with Processing or programming. I was looking to do an interactive installation by tracking and manipulation people's shadow OR to create a delay in the reaction so that the shadow appears to be moving independently. I've downloaded the Kinect Processing library but I'm just starting to learn the basics (the project is supposed to be completed by June - I need to know if it's realistic for a newbie to complete a project like this).

I will be using a Kinect for tracking and I'll be working with OS X Lion.

My questions are: is it possible for it to be projected directly onto a wall or the floor? Would I have to create graphics using another program?

Any tips will be appreciated, I need every bit of information I can get.
