I continued with what I made with my last lab. I want to incorporated music into the visual I made. So I worked on making Processing and Arduino to talk to each other by establishing a handshake between them.
Now, I can use my FSR to control the gravity of the bouncing balls. And Processing will process the gravity values into 0 and 1 and feed it back to Arduino. Arduino will control the speed of the music. The music being played is Ode to Joy. The music will play slower when gravity is set to zero!

/* Photocell simple testing sketch.
Connect one end of the photocell to 5V, the other end to Analog 0.
Then connect one end of a 10K resistor from Analog 0 to ground
Connect LED from pin 11 through a resistor to ground
