GifAnimation is a Processing library to play and export GIF
animations. It is under a GPL license. The GIF Encoder & Decoder were written by Kevin Weiner. please see the separate copyright notice in the headers of the GifDecoder & GifEncoder classes.

或許大家都會遇到在Processing加入動畫的困擾，現在有Library可以呼叫引用插入Gif的動畫。下面是使用步驟：

1. 解壓縮後，將gifAnimation資料夾整個Copy至您安裝Processing的libraries資料夾內。(ex. C:\processing-\libraries\gifAnimation)
2. 使用gifAnimation library前，記得引用至您的sketch。
(ex. import gifAnimation.*;)
3. 更詳細的用法，參見線上範例或說明。

用Processing時常需要與Flash整合，這邊提供簡易的方法即可達到兩方通訊功能。目前僅送出字串給Flash，更進階的方式可以產生xml格式進行溝通。下面也放上範例檔(port 9007)，供需要的朋友研究。

Processing 部分:
import processing.net.*;
int port = 9007;
Server myServer;
byte zero = 0;
int total = 1;
int total2 = 2;
void setup(){
size(200, 200);
myServer = new Server(this,port);
}
void draw(){
myServer.write(total+","+total2);
myServer.write(zero);
} 


Flash AS部分:
createSocket ();
function createSocket () {
 _root.createTextField("inputlabel",4,50,100,50,20);
 inputlabel.text = "Input:";
 _root.createTextField("inputer",3,100,100,200,20);
 inputer.border = true;
 serialServer = new XMLSocket ();
 serialServer.connect ("127.0.0.1", 9007);
 serialServer.onConnect = function (success) {
  trace ("connected " + success);
 };
 serialServer.onClose = function () {
  trace ("closed");
 };
 serialServer.onData = function (data) {
  inputer.text = data;
 };
}

Fashion Photography and Generative Artwork by Clayton Cubitt and Tom Carden

早年Clayton Cubitt使用Processing創造一系列粒子應用的作品，由於視覺多樣性與幻化曲線吸引了攝影家Tom Carden的注意，Tom Carden看出圖像與流行時裝結合的淺力，於是提出合作。由Clayton Cubitt製作出高解析的黑白圖樣曲線，並與照片合成，最後應用在Metropop雜誌。

昨天打開Processing跳出更新訊息，才發現又到了0133版。十月可說是更新頻繁，在10/22就發布了0131、0132版。而0133則修正了OpenGL輸出。
