Experiment with using Processing on Amazon EC2 to generate visualizations.

EC2 machines don't have graphics contexts, but using a virtual frame buffer and software rendering allows exported Processing apps to run and generates images which I download to my computer.

I instantiate a small number of EC2 computers, and run one processing app to generate the lines seen in these plots. *** update *** Additional instructions are here: http://binarymillenium.com/2009/08/instructions-for-rendering-with.html

Music was supposed to be My Fair Lady - David Byrne from http://ccmixter.org/freestylemix/files/wired/88, but something happened to it in the conversion on vimeo.
