This book is due to be published any day now:
"Introduction to computing and programming with Python: A Multimedia

It uses the Jython Environment for Students (JES).  You can use this to 
for example work with and manipulate images or sounds.

A similar book is available in preview form: "Introduction to Media 
Computation: A Multimedia Cookbook in Python".
