Here is a quick step-by-step overview of how to get started with LusidOSC and spatial applications.

Make sure you have Java installed on your system.

To run the LusidOSC Simulator (great for testing):

Goto the LusidOSC page and download the "LusidOSC Simulator". Choose the version for your operating system.
Unzip the file and the application will be inside. Double click to run it.

To run LusidOSC applications (the Processing Bundle):

Download and install Processing ( http://www.processing.org ).
Download and unzip the "LusidOSC Processing Bundle" ( http://lusidosc.sourceforge.net ). The file is compressed via the sourceforge subversion repository with .tar.gz. It should open easily on Mac. For Windows, you may need something like WinRAR.
Go into any project folder (for example, LusidOSC_BasicApp) and open the .pde file (for example, LusidOSC_BasicApp.pde) with Processing.
Click on the Run button in processing to start the application.
