System Features

'system' - level features I am keen to implement

Debug

  • 'pipe inspector' - what is in this data line? when is it updating?
  • UI shows some evidence that events are firing - lines 'heat up' or draw momentary event-paths...

Dataflow

  • merge, split (a-la grasshopper)
  • requires some thought w/r/t how data is globally handled. what can a mod expect is in any given data line? ask for all to have 'identifier' object, which contains some kind of header?
  • simple maths expression evaluator? sliders?

Layering & Abstraction

  • mods-in-mods i.e. bundles...
  • mods-as-function-calls within mods (woah) (if writing new mod, can call image_threshold(yourdata) / alternately with the graphic mod)
  • good 'graduating' exercise, pulling users from graphic programming into 'real' programming
  • requires some thought w/r/t events, etc. not-so-simply function returns.
