A bit about patches, textures, and masks in PsychoPy

PsychoPy is a powerful Python library for creating the type of stimuli that are frequently used in psychological and neuroscientific experiments. I use it all the time, mostly from within OpenSesame, but I remember that I initially found working with PsychoPy quite daunting. This is because PsychoPy takes a very different approach to stimulus generation than most people are used to. You have to think in terms of patches, textures, and, masks, rather than in conventional drawing primitives, such as rectangles and lines (although newer versions of PsychoPy also support these drawing primitives). Therefore, I decided to write a short tutorial that explains the basics of working with PsychoPy.
