I like the fact that it uses Processing to do this. The right tool for art.

Most likely by way of Quil ( https://github.com/quil/quil ). Using quil in your ide of choice is a dream and a remarkable improvement over the native processing env in terms of interactivity with the sketch.

Is this implying that this framework was the work of _why the lucky stiff, or is it just some kind of reference to him? The description does very much seem like his style.

This is my take at drawing in Clojure:

An infographic showing voting in some elections in Moscow, and presumed violations thereof.

One pixel - one vote. One blob - one voting comission. Had to learn to draw circles of a given area.

Just a reference, but the style is intended to emulate _why.

Quil came from clj-processing, and the relevant discussion about naming is here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/clj-proce...

(I wasn't involved, I just remember things)
