Processing.js 1.1 has been released.

From the website:

Processing.js is the sister project of the popular Processing visual programming language, designed for the web. Processing.js makes your data visualizations, digital art, interactive animations, educational graphs, video games, etc. work using web standards and without any plug-ins. You write code using the Processing language, include it in your web page, and Processing.js does the rest. It’s not magic, but almost.

Originally developed by Ben Fry and Casey Reas, Processing started as an open source programming language based on Java to help the electronic arts and visual design communities learn the basics of computer programming in a visual context. Processing.js takes this to the next level, allowing Processing code to be run by any HTML5 compatible browser, including current versions of Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera, and even the upcoming Internet Explorer 9. Processing.js brings the best of visual programming to the web, both for Processing and web developers.

Everything you need to work with Processing.js is here. You can download the most recent version of Processing.js, read Quick Start Guides for Processing Developers or JavaScript Developers, learn about the Processing language, consult the Reference, and of course view many existing demos that use Processing.js. You can also get involved with the Processing and Processing.js communities, both of which are active and and looking for new users and developers.

If you are not familiar with the Processing project, you need to be.

Even a non-artistic person such as myself can appreciate and follow, if not imitate, the thoughtfulness that has gone into the Processing project.

Very much a project to follow and definitely of interest for visualization in connection with topic maps.
