The latest Processing Foundation Impact Report is here!

In 2025, p5.js turned 2.0, empowering artists and learners to work with variable fonts, GPU-accelerated shaders, and expanded color modes such as OKLCH for richer, more expressive palettes. Today, p5.js has over 800 contributors, with 50 of them actively participating in the latest releases. Meanwhile, Processing 4 merged 121 pull requests and put out 10 releases in a single year, sustained by a contributor community that continues to grow more welcoming.

But numbers only tell part of the story. Processing Foundation’s impact was felt by artists, coders, and educators across continents:

“The most rewarding part of all this is that I got to make a real impact — not someday in the future, but now. As a college student, I helped bring a long-requested feature to life, touched by so many hands, and about to be used by thousands of people around the world.” — Vivek Bopaliya, Gujarat, India.

“The opportunity to be a fellow has been life-changing. I look forward to continuing to be a part of the community and an active contributor.” — Daniel Corbani, São José dos Campos, Brazil.

“I am excited to share with my kids and continue learning it myself. I NEVER thought I would be able to code ANYTHING.” — Liz Trow, El Paso, Texas.

By centering open source software, education, and innovative programs, Processing Foundation makes creative coding accessible to communities historically marginalized by dominant technology.

How to bridge the gap between simple shapes and complex generative systems? In this @p5xjs tutorial, @tamamoyre explores the core principles of building organic, expressive sketches.

She breaks down the difference between random and noise, dives into coordinate transformations, and experimented with the updated color modes in the latest version of p5.js. If you’re looking to move beyond static drawings and start designing flexible, living systems, this tutorial provides a clear roadmap for your practice.

This tutorial is part of our ongoing series in partnership with the Tezos Foundation, exploring how to create with p5.js 2.0+.

📣 p5.js 2.0 Artist Series Drop #2: Featuring Tamara Moura Costa

Tamara is a generative artist based in Buenos Aires who works primarily with computational processes, exploring visuals, code, and electronics. From live performances to physical installations, her practice is consistently guided by a sense of curiosity, play, and nature.

In this release, ‘Transiciones Latentes’, Tamara explores the delicate balance between structure and spontaneity. What began as a playful sketch of tiny flowers evolved into a sophisticated exploration of tonal relationships, rhythmic textures, and the dialogue between different directions and shapes.

In her tutorial, Tamara breaks down the core building blocks of generative systems in p5.js 2.0+. She demonstrates the fundamental differences between random vs. noise, the logic behind coordinate transformations, and how to utilize the new color spaces available in the latest version of p5.js.

Alongside the tutorial, she releases her project on Bootloader, inviting collectors to explore a playful, ever-evolving atmosphere where formal structure meets unpredictable generative outcomes.

Call / Code / Response was developed through the Processing Foundation Fellowship as an experiment in community-centered creative technology.

For the 2025 cohort, fellows were paired with community partners to co-develop software responding to real artistic needs. Fellows Ana C., Jiwon Ham, and Payton Croskey partnered with four community organizations to support LIVE FROM LA, a youth-led theatre production created by twelve young people ages 13-19.

Created with: @streetpoetsinc @theunusualsus @versastylela @noeasypropsorg

Together, the fellows designed and built the projection system used in the performance, allowing the students to create digital collages drawn from their own families and neighborhoods. These images were projected across the stage as part of the play the youth wrote and performed themselves.

The project demonstrates how creative coding can become a collaborative tool for storytelling, enabling communities to shape the technological systems that amplify their voices.

The Future Protest, by Maryam Kazeem and Jubril Olambiwonnu, explores how environmental loss can be recorded through sound, memory, and code.

The project responds to the ongoing ecological erasure of the Lagos Lagoon in Nigeria. Participants are invited to record a “future protest,” imagining a different relationship between the city and its disappearing waters. A custom algorithm then analyzes the recording, transforming moments of silence into speculative 3D mangrove trees generated from digital models of plastic currently found in the lagoon.

The resulting archive treats absence itself as a form of data. Through creative coding and participatory storytelling, the project creates a space where imagining environmental futures becomes an act of collective reflection and resistance.

In p5.score, artist and choreographer Kate Sicchio explores how code can become a partner in improvisational dance.

Developed through the 2025 Processing Foundation Fellowship, Kate created p5.score, a JavaScript library that connects the logic of p5.js with the physical language of choreography. The system allows visual patterns generated in code to function as prompts for dancers, creating a framework where movement emerges through an ongoing dialogue between body and algorithm.

Designed as an entry point for choreographers and dancers interested in creative coding, p5.score opens new possibilities for collaborative experimentation between performers and technologists.

Mexico City was built on five lakes. Today, most traces of them have disappeared.

In ‘Where Has the Lake Gone?’, artist Leonardo Aranda investigates the hidden hydrological history of the city. Using a bicycle disguised as a tamale cart, Leonardo traveled through neighborhoods scanning the ground with a custom radar sensor, searching for remnants of buried waterways.

The collected data became a 3D map built in Processing, revealing fragments of the lake system still embedded in the city’s infrastructure: curved streets, too-high staircases, and underground channels.

The project asks how we might reconnect with a landscape that urban development has largely erased.

In Body as Data, artist and developer Daniel Corbani explores how movement can shape digital space.

Using his open-source Processing library Luna, Daniel created a system that allows performers to interact with generative visuals through their bodies. In collaboration with dancer Paola Higa, movement becomes the source of the imagery itself: fluid simulations emerging in real time from the performer’s gestures.

Daniel released Luna as open-source software so artists and performers without access to expensive commercial tools can work with projection and creative coding. The project reflects a growing interest among artists in developing accessible technological tools for performance and experimentation.

The Network Gong Ensemble Archive by elekhlekha explores how sound can carry cultural memory across borders.

Developed through the Processing Foundation Fellowship, this project documents Southeast Asian gong traditions through oral histories encapsulated in interactive p5.js sketches. Musicians from the Phillipines, Myanmar, and Thailand contribute recordings of similar instruments across different cultural contexts, revealing the deep connections that exist across these musical lineages.

Rather than treating archives as static collections, the project invites visitors to engage with the materials as a living ensemble. It is meant to be played and shared.
