I'm mentoring someone who's interested in #creativecoding and #generativeart, especially in the space of #gamedev and #alife. His biggest challenge is going beyond dabbling in private to actually following through with a project. I think this comes down to finding good tools for "quick and dirty" work, as well as finding venues or communities for sharing his output and getting feedback.

Does anyone have advice or pointers I could share with him? Boosts appreciated! :boost_requested:
