Openprocessing

At ITP, Sinan Ascioglu started a really useful site for his thesis in 2008 called openvisuals.org. It has recently caught on as openprocessing.org — lots of nice Processing sketches with source code there.

This project by Shahee Iliyas (a graduate from Piet Zwart Institute, NL) uses a python script, The World Factbook, and Wikipedia to translate flags of the world into individual and cumulative piecharts. Pretty awesome. via iamtheweather
