I have to admit, these demos are quite impressive for such a small amount of javascript. I was also surprised with how smoothly they ran. However, there is one thing that has been itching in the back of my mind every time I see an article on processing: it doesn't look like it is at all object oriented. Am I missing something?

it's not object oriented at a rendering level - you blitz the screen each frame. the language itself in its original incarnation is pretty much just java though.

i think a better headline would be "canvas + javascript .." - processing.js is a framework between the two. another framework could give you the kind of object oriented (maybe 'scene graph orient' is a better term) rendering i think you're looking for.
