Quarantine Dreams
The project stalled because I got stuck with technical and compatibility issues with OpenFrameworks plugins. Right as I reached peak frustration, Joshua Davis suggested trying Notch - that it shorthanded a lot of the things I was trying to do, and sped up the process.
I learned notch in 2 weeks, and had this up and running - it far surpassed anything I was trying to accomplish before, and instead of coding,, I was sketching and painting.
