Typically in customised or packaged software there is an element called the "core". The core generally doesn't change much, it usually contains all the complicated bits in a easy to use package for the rest of the software. Think of a car, the core would be the engine. It's something you don't really want to touch. Well that is what the Oddonomy Core is, that element I want to do once and never think about ever again.

Oddonomy Core is actually the sister channel with Oddonomous Demos. When I do a demonstration video to test something, if it is simple then it will end up in Oddonomy Core. Otherwise it is a once off for Oddonomous Demos.

What is in the Oddonomy Core? Everything that is reusable is in the core, sometimes I will have something copied everywhere until I figure it out. For example, as I am authoring this I have a formula for doing gradients between four points. This is actually copied to the video programs that needs it. I've only just figured out how to implement it so I am now moving it to the core... when I finally figure out all the mathematics to make it reusable.

I list all of the current files at the end of the page because it gets quite large!

There is a process with the Oddonomy Core that I must strictly adhere too. Otherwise if I am working on something but have to make a quick tweak to a current video series.. I will break it! Which has happened, only once.

1. Each channel must have their own copy of the files called "Independent Files". Why is it called this? To be honest, I couldn't think of a decent name and it is far too late to change it. There are a LOT of video series out there so one for a rainy day when I am pumping out 84 videos a day.
2. Each video series will call the "Independent Files" but each video series has it's own subset of files.
3. Quick changes are usually delayed until I do a major change in the core, because the impacts could be big. I just fix it in video series' direct code.
4. Oddonomy Core changes are normally only performed if I need a simple test framework. Such as bouncing squares. Otherwise I can do it in the channel code, a practial approach.
5. When changes are made I copy it to an "Update All Files" folder.
6. In that folder I have a script, which will go through every single channel code files and update them. It will then compile them all and back up those files.

Are YoU ready to see the list of the core files? Slight lies, times this list by 6! This list will get bigger over time too!

This is the main playlist for Oddonomous Core. Oddonomous Core videos are the more boring videos, more interesting demonstration videos go to either Oddonomous Demos or Oddonomous Soundz.

You can view the playlists on DailyMotion here.

The videos, pages and playlists are being manually added over time. So this website will never stop growing. Keep an eye on the website if you're after something, otherwise maybe message me on one of the links and I can do something earlier for you.
