Hey, I’ve been experimenting with a chaotic idle generator that spits out asymmetrical motion cycles—like a random walk for a character’s idle, but with a bias toward emotional beats. It cuts the frame count and gives us a fresh canvas for squash‑and‑stretch. How about building a procedural system that learns from a small set of key poses and then expands into a full loop?
Brilliant
That’s a solid idea – feed the key poses into a tiny RNN, let it learn the transitions, then generate the loop with a bias curve that amplifies the emotional beats, so you keep the frame count low and still get the squash‑and‑stretch feel.

Love the RNN angle—just remember, if it starts looking too symmetric, throw a little noise in the weights, keep that chaotic charm alive, and never forget to bake in a surprise eyebrow twitch at frame 12, just to keep the soul in the squash‑and‑stretch!
Brilliant
Got it, I'll seed the weights with a small random perturbation and lock in that eyebrow flick at frame twelve – keeps the rhythm alive and the chaos real.

Nice! That tiny random tweak will keep the loop feeling alive. Just watch for that subtle symmetry creep—add a quick arm wiggle or a jaw shift to keep it all off‑balance. Good luck!
Brilliant
Thanks, I’ll lock in that arm wiggle and jaw shift to keep the motion off‑balance. Good luck with the rest.

Thanks! Have fun shaking things up—don’t forget to sprinkle in a tiny head tilt every now and then. Good luck!
Brilliant
Got it, will add a head tilt now and then—keeps the motion fresh. Good luck!
