iTunes-Colors

Recreates the color-effect used in iTunes

This is based off of the work of Charles Leifer, and his incredible article on finding dominant colors using Python and K-Means (as well as Javascript and HTML5) can be found at http://charlesleifer.com/blog/using-python-and-k-means-to-find-the-dominant-colors-in-images/.

I've taken the liberty of wrapping up his javascript port in a nice little object that uses deferrence and the when property to give things a nice callback-flow.

Usage:

Colors.analyze(imgElement, function(colors){
  console.log(colors);
});

jQuery is required, but it is not used much, so you can hack it off if you'd like (of course).
