Ideas do not come from nowhere. They are the conglomoration of thoughts and feelings obtained through experience. If you lock yourself in a room having done nothing you will be left thinking about how you're locked in a room doing nothing. Go do something else entirely, you have no idea what will grab your interest or what will come out of it. You could for example start going to music shows, end up really interested in playing an instrument, and end up wanting to create algorthithmic music, or creative visuals. But don't do it this for the end goal of wanting to program something, there's so much more to life.
