Hello community. I am new with blender, and this is my first post here. I have the following task to master:

I have a CSV-File with 1000 Names. I would like to spread those Names somehow randomly in space. It would be nice for them to be 3D, and not just be flat.

As a bonus, I would like those names to be connected by lines.

I would then animate a Camera flying through that space.

Is that achievable, and how? I’d appreciate any help. Thanks a lot.

    This is a tough one but I think your answer would obviously be geometry nodes, I don’t gave access to a computer but if I remeber well there’s a text node and you can inpu a string if you manage to get an array(dictionary) out of your file with all the names you can then with the index of your scatter point get the corresponding entry of your array. This is the general idea of I’d do it but I may mix element from different software :x I don’t know if you can for each on geometry nodes.

    An other option would be to create a python script and chat gpt may help you with that.

    Good luck !
