MixProcessing

MixProcessing is a software for mixing Processing sketches.

What is MixProcessing?

MixProcessing can be used to combine and mix Processing sketches to create new real-time animations. The output screen is subdivided into output channels, which are free ediable areas. The sketches can be controlled to render to any of the channels or a group af them. A mixer let you control your compsition. An automation interface can set sketch's parameters and public variables automatically.

Possible Applications:

• Mapping (example 1).
• VJing ((examples)[http://www.vjstv.com/home/]).
• Arty projection installations.
• Interactive story telling using sensors and costum user interfaces.
