Processing 1.5.1 for artists and others

There is a new release of the Processing programming language from MIT.  It is intended for artists and creative talents.  For non-programming kids, MIT has scratch and Microsoft has kodu while Smalltalk has both e-toys (as found on OLPC) and the Croquet/Cobalt projects.

The revisions in 1.5.1 have some notable admissions.

Needless to say, Processing is not to be found on the top-20 TIOBE language index on which Lua has now appeared ( and on which Smalltalk-ish Objective-C is rising.)

But which language will rise as Android becomes dominant?

CUIS Smalltalk

Here is a link to another fork off Squeak Smalltalk: CUIS

Quote:
Cuis is a free Smalltalk-80 environment derived from Squeak (www.squeak.org). Its main features are being simple and powerful. It is also very portable, fast and efficient. This means it can is a great tool for running on any hardware, ranging from supercomputers to tablets and smart phones like a CEO's business phone, and everything in between, including regular PCs.


Objective:
  sustain the likelihood  of continuing to understand an evolving complex system by requiring continued evolution towards simplicity
