description:
This web-based application is constructed from Processing.js, a part of Processing language which is able to run on browser. The most interesting point of this project is to focus on both 2 of 4 approaches to interactive design.

For the first approach "User-Centered Design" , the designer tried to make a simple drum without any complicated set of drum pieces. Only lines and circles working with physic law are able to initiate a set of user-based instrument. Importantly, the user foresees what is supposed to be happened without any instructions.

Furthermore, the second approach focuses on "Activity-Center Design" . The system flows until the user press "close" button on web browser. The system has no fixed ending. Thus, the designer designed tool for actions. In addition, each action directly depends on each own person's experience and mental processes. (Exteriorized:-interesting in what people do)


system & technology:
I.application processes active to each order <balls & lines>
II.Users active to application process. <dragging line & outputsound>
III. Processing.js + html5
