"processing" a simple but flexible language

Looks promising ... in few lines you get a 3d rendering
And you can transform the space - so fractals can be easily generated.

I think shadertoy.com is more up our street.

One nice thing about processing is how it abstracts away all the CPU-side OpenGL boilerplate you otherwise need to get geometry and shaders up and running, and replaces them with simple, obvious functions that let you get down and dirty with the good stuff straight away. If I'd had to learn all the code for program objects, buffer-binding, etc. etc. upfront I might have given up before I even got to GLSL!

Here's my 'Shadertoy' type setup in processing...

Code:

PShader shade;
String name = "reflections.glsl";

void setup(){
  size(1000,700,P2D);
  shade = loadShader(name);
  shade.set("resolution",float(width),float(height));
  frameRate(60);
}

void draw(){
  shade.set("time",millis()/1000.0);
  shader(shade);
  rect(0,0,width,height);
}

Easy as that
