I'm new with Nodebox but I feel it will be a great tool :)
My surprise till now is the lack of support for user interaction. How can I read the mouse position? What about events?
Thanks for your answers.
Regards,
aja

    NodeBox now has a node to read the mouse position, but keep in mind that NodeBox is not an interactive tool for live performance and more a production tool for posters and videos.
