Inventory Cycle

This is a cleaned and simplified version of the inventory cycle animation used in the Stitch Fix Algorithms Tour.

Inventory events (e.g. scan points) are simulated for inventory items over time and their events are their locations within the process flow are mapped to x-y coordinates.
