Well Rested.

I've been taking some time away from the floor recently.  Last weekend I didn't set foot at school.  Probably because I was on the brink of losing it on Friday.  Multiple people asked me if I was doing ok, even the ones I don't normally converse with.  While I thought I appeared fine on the outside, perhaps the stress was emanating gamma rays from my soul.

During ICM Madness we decided to take a calm route.  IF we had time we would integrate more fun tricks we learned in class.  But, aside from that we played some music and paced ourselves to fulfill the assignment.  Ideally, I wanted to incorporate machine learning into the sketch for reasons that it would also take care of my this weeks assignment but alas, no time.  Also I was so hungry I chose the dumplings by color and my diet has been largely Pescatarian for over a year.  Sooo, that threw an interesting loop to digestive system later.

A little touch base on my final project.  So it's a definite yes that I want to combine pcomp and icm.  I also have been doing so many accelerated group projects recently so I'd prefer to work alone and control my own pace.  I'm also pretty far a long my concept where I just want to build!  I've been spending the past week sourcing parts that I need, for the cheapest option possible (Bidding on Ebay, or Haggling for that best price.)

It may come to a time where my pcomp and icm blog posts will become more of the same.  And in that case I might combine those as well once the project becomes a functioning concept.  I'm all here for efficiency. 

To go back on machine learning, I started by setting up the example sketch from the ML5 site.  I wanted to use the style transfer program using the webcam  to create a collage of these altered photos.  However, after setting up everything in p5, I get an endless load when I begin the style transfer.  Not sure how to diagnose the problem, but no errors are being thrown.
