# Introduction
The goal of this project was to create a functional miniature desktop display inspired by the 'Macrodata Refinement' computers featured in Apple TV's Severance. This build consists of two core elements: the software and the physical enclosure, both outlined below.

#### Objectives
- **Generate a randomized number grid** with grouped 'bad numbers'.
- **Animate and style the interface** to match the aesthetics of the show.

> **GENERATE**
- A *N×N* grid is created.
- Each cell is filled with a random integer between 0-9.
> **MAP**
- A Perlin noise map assigns smooth gradient values to the grid.
- This ensures numbers are naturally grouped rather than randomly scattered.
### b. The Interface
> **THRESHOLD**
- Each cell's value is compared to a set threshold.
- Values above the threshold are marked as 'bad'/'scary' numbers.
> **GROUP**
- 'Bad' numbers are grouped based on proximity to one another.
- At random intervals, a group visible in the viewport will be activated:
- If hovered over, they become **'super active'**, extending their active time and appearing agitated.
- If clicked, the group is **'refined'**, animating into a pre-determined bin and resetting as no longer 'bad'.
## b. The Interface

</p>
- A moving Perlin noise map offsets each number (vertically or horizontally).
- Activated bad groups expand / contract / jitter.
- Numbers scale based on cursor position.
- Refined groups animate into bins, with a percent bar keeping track of your progress.

#### Additional Features:
- The application is cross-compatible, allowing compilation for both Linux and Raspberry Pi (ARM).
- Debug mode reveals various settings.
- Save / load configurations to / from disk (JSON).

- A debug mode reveals various settings (which can be saved / loaded from disk as JSON).
- An 'idle' mode can be enabled to display the Lumon logo screensaver.
- Numbers animate-on when going from idle mode.
- The number grid animates on-screen when going from idle mode.
- The user can navigate the full grid using arrow and zoom keys.

# II. The Housing
#### Objectives
- Reconstruct the computer housing from the show as a printable 3D model.
- Design the interior to support a RaspberryPi + screen
