[plt-scheme] fluxus 0.13

I'm trying to get a handle on what fluxus is/does;

inputs-
-audio:possibly fft processed to identify components like beats
-a console

on the inside of the black box:
-state machines
-primitives: eg torus
-render loop(?what happens here)
-components of the audio may affect attributes displayed (either of
primitives or of the animation in part or whole)

outputs-
live opengl animation
overlayed with console interactions (possibly opengl rendered text in
the truetype font of choice?)

do I have this right?
