Christmas Actor Hackday

Goal of the "Christmas Actor Hack" is to get in touch with the Actor model. That includes:

actors (or grains as Orleans calls it, or processes as the Erlang/Elixir community calls it)
passing immutable messages between actors
each actor having a mailbox which it processes
a simple programming model where actor code apprears single-threaded, because concurrency is handled by the actor system
different implementations, such as
the BEAM (Bogdan's Erlang Abstract Machine), which is the Erlang VM

Only dependencies are Elixir, Erlang, and glut to access OpenGL.
No UI threads! Individual processes can be used to track mouse
Slides track mouse as long as button is down https://youtu.be/77FW-jrCyCs?t=37m35s
Sliders can be rotated https://youtu.be/77FW-jrCyCs?t=40m4s
500 lines animating still a few ms to render https://youtu.be/77FW-jrCyCs?t=43m34s
