 To get involved, you should know HTML, JavaScript, jQuery, and CSS. 
 You'll also want to know a backend language for more, complex, and easier integration. (That will make sense when I talk about it.) Should be very simple to think of something innovative and how to implement it quickly.

 The project needs someone who is proficient in either Ruby or Python. In addition, C knowledge would be useful.

+I'm working on tools for interactive audio and video processing.
+
+Most recently, I wrote an interface that converts mathematical expressions into sound. I also have projects that do music visualization.
+
+ I'm using Python, LLVM, Gtk+, NumPy, GStreamer, and OpenGL.
+
+All the code is in Python. Being familiar with some of the libraries I mentioned would be handy, but there are a lot of different directions to take things in, so the main thing is enthusiasm and curiosity. I'm happy to mentor people in any of the tools I'm using.
