7-post multi-person thread (NOTimothyLottes / @onatt0 / @EskilSteenberg / @olson_dan). On-the-fly SPIR-V generation instead of GLSL: cart file = 'code+data' restartable package, macro-assembly-style language where defines are played back interleaved for ILP/loop-unroll, SPIR-V out direct (no GLSL step). Inspired by C64 SID tracker pattern + instrument. CPU does the SPIR-V generation from data the GPU can read/write.
