Well, you could start by watching some tutorial videos on coding to learn a bit about how IEnumerators (coroutines) work in Unity. First, you need to call StartCoroutine(Add()) – that will run the coroutine (do this in your start method, NOT in Update()). Second, the coroutine will need a loop (such as while) to continue executing in a loop. Or you could use InvokeRepeating on any void method.
