The Engine

How It All Works

This isn't a collection of separate scripts. Oddonomy is powered by a central, complex, and reusable C++ software engine. Here's a look under the hood.

The "Oddonomy Core" Architecture

Think of the "Oddonomy Core" as a foundational software library or a car's chassis. It's the powerful, reusable heart of the system, providing all the foundational logic for generating graphics, sound, and animations. Each content channel (like Oddonomous Space or Sleep) is like a different specialist program that utilizes this shared engine. It links to the core and adds its own "Independent Files"—its unique autonomous program—to create a specific type of video.
