I’ve done similar things countless times in Processing (and Director before that), so I used this as an opportunity to dive into openFrameworks. I have been building up my experience of coding with C++ through working with Golden Cheetah and I can finally (sort-of) read the syntax of the code comfortably. I’m also getting used to working in Xcode.

Here is the application (os x) and source code (xcode project, for use with oF v0.05).
