<aside> 🎷

Pick one model (BodyPose, Hand Pose, Face Mesh) and experiment with controlling elements of a p5.js sketch (color, geometry, sound, text, etc.) using the model's output.

• I couldn’t find defined vertices for the nose so I had to zoom in to find the exact numbers 😜

look at my neat teeth!
