For almost a year and a half, I spent most of my time making animations. Day in day out, writing thousands of lines of code just to be able to visualize these weird rhythm ideas that were in my mind. I made a video for almost every single idea I wanted to explore. But the burnout got too real. So, I've been on an indefinite break from content creation.
It's been a little over a month since I've made a video, and I have to say, it's been SO nice to not have to try to be creative every single day.
I didn't realize how consuming it was trying to keep up with the algorithm. It started making a fun hobby feel like a chore, so I chose to put a stop on everything.
I still love to think about random music and math ideas throughout the day, so I do feel like my content may return in some form or another if and when I genuinely feel like making a video.
Thank you all for supporting me and my channel throughout the years!

Thank you all for supporting what I do 🙏 Your support makes it possible for me dedicate my time into turning these random ideas that pop into my head into animations. I get more than enough satisfaction from all the math I do to make these videos, but seeing how well the content is received and hearing how the videos can be something more than just simple videos for some people is what drives me to make more content for you all.
I still have some animation ideas stuck in my head so until those run out, I'll just keep chugging along 🚂🚂

I always get asked about source codes for my animations or if I can talk about how I make these things. When I started posting consistently 6 months ago, I started this library where I have everything organized. This library is undoubtedly a gold mine with about 50 different concepts I've come up with, including 150+ original animations. The original goal when I started it was to eventually open-source this library and post tutorials for people to make their own animations. However, after months of finding multiple accounts like these in the 2nd picture across multiple social media platforms who have figured out how to remake my videos and take those ideas for their own posts, I will no longer consider open sourcing this library.
I spend several hours a day doing nonstop math to bring new content and ideas to my platform for y'all. These video ideas are not easy to come up with at all, which is why accounts like these see it as a much easier option to just copy what I do and maybe change a thing or two. These things aren't hard to make if you know how to code, but you actually have to put in an effort to be original and create with your own ideas. So why would I want to make it easier for this content to be taken by practically handing over the key to my "secrets"?
