There are some great ideas for Media Computation projects being created around the world. Here are links to those we know about – please do send us more!

Note that Jython's version numbers represent the version of CPython from which Jython pulls most of its libraries that are written in pure Python (as opposed to the parts that are written in Java).

This is the code repository for JES, the Jython Environment for Students. It is an educational IDE used in the Media Computation curriculum developed by Mark Guzdial and Barbara Ericson at Georgia Tech. More details on the curriculum are available at http://www.mediacomputation.org/.

We use a really neat package for music called JMusic (http://jmusic.ci.qut.edu.au/) in our Media Computation Data Structures class (http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs1316). I'm teaching a workshop in Chicago this week where the question came up (again), "Can we do this from JES?" At this moment, they are all working on MIDI music in Java, so I decided to try to make it work. (You can see their cool media at http://home.cc.gatech.edu/gacomputes). It works!
