How did I completely miss this, the video linked in another comment does a decent job of explaining. Is there anything like this currently going on for other research elsewhere? Would love to get involved.

It seems a lot of projects aren’t in operation anymore, but I found a list at …wikipedia.org/…/List_of_volunteer_computing_proj…

The one I still use is electricsheep.org, but it’s art based and not as much for research. :)
