Advance Praise for Getting Started
with Processing
“Making a computer program used to be as easy as turning
it on and typing one or two lines of code to get it to say,
Hello. Now it takes a 500+-page manual and an entire
village. Not anymore. This little book by Ben and Casey gets
you computationally drawing lines, triangles, and circles
within minutes of clicking the download button. They’ve
made making computer programs humanly and humanely
possible again—and that’s no small feat.”
— John Maeda, President of Rhode Island
School of Design
“Getting Started with Processing is not only a
straightforward introduction to basic programming—it’s
fun! It almost feels like an activity workbook for grownups.
You may want to buy it even if you never thought you were
interested in programming, because you will be.”
— Mark Allen, Founder and Director,
Machine Project
“This is an excellent primer for those wanting to dip their
feet into programming graphics. Its learning by doing
approach makes it particularly appropriate for artists and
designers who are often put off by more traditional theoryfirst
approaches. The price of the book and the fact that the
Processing environment is open source makes this an
excellent choice for students.”

Venezia Professor of Design, IUAV
