A python function that generates several trackers and links them to a master tracker which takes the average of the other trackers' tracks for each of its points. Prompts the user for the kind of track (1-point, 2-point, or 4-point) and how many tracks they want to provide for each point (2, 3 or 4).

Photography...
In order to develop a deeper understanding of light, lenses and framing in my visual effects work, I purchased my first DSLR stills camera; the Canon 450D. See some of my favourite images on my Flickr account.
Music...
Since 1990 I have been producing music and playing guitar in bands. I was signed to Bolshi Records in 1999 as part of the breakbeat duo Milo, and released an EP which was available in all high street shops. For some of my favourite personal tracks visit the music page or my SoundCloud page.
