animation, interactive art and video

This is a net art.
Players can use the mouse to try four directions with different semantics, creatures, images and sounds.

It shows the complexity of digital art and also the way we interact with it

This artwork is built by Processing, called "Valence"(by Ben Fry).
It takes bits of English sentences from around the web and attempts to map the relationship of words on a 3D sphere.

Hi~
I agree with Kennis: the visual materials are really funny.
I am more interessted in the making of these materials.
What are the concepts behind?
How can I make this kind of art?
(I don't know much about programming...)
Is there any simple way to make it?

Hope you enjoy the research of digital art.^^
