 programmable OpenGL 3.2 renderer, `ofApp`, member-owned state, and mesh-based
 drawing. Two new shader studies turn the bundled motion into luminous ribbons
 and animated contour fields.

+shared Perfume BVH/reference data and openFrameworks, Processing and Python viewers.

+repository; this collection continues to maintain the general graphics examples.

 This code adapts the original Perfume A/B/C BVH recordings to the pinned
 29-DOF Unitree G1 model, evaluates the resulting poses, and exports the data
 used by [G1 Motion Lab](../../example-g1-motion-lab/).
