Hey everyone!
As a thanks for all you amazing support I'd love to set up a Zoom to meet you all for an hour or two. Just to get to know each other and to answer questions. Let me know if you have anything specific you wish to discuss in the comments :)

In this video we create a simple game based on sine, collision detection and instancing. The final result isn't exactly something you can use as an actual game, but I think there's lots of stuff in here that might be be interesting for you :)

Hey everyone,
here's a little extra file showing a way of how to create light emitting spheres. The sphere used here isn't actually emitting light itself, it's more of a hack of aligning the sphere to the lights' position. I also added some texture in combination with PBR to create a cool m...

In this video we create a component which can detect when objects are on top of each other (colliding). This works for any 2D input with alpha. You could also render a 3D scene and use it there, it just works on the u v axis though.

In this video we break apart 3D objects likes boxes and spheres by using the point data for instancing and combining this data with noise. Tip: Use a Noise SOP with the input SOPs (make sure to urn off the animation).

In this video we create a user interface (UI) using Widgets which includes several audio visualisations such as spectrum and volume.
What do you think of the Early Access tag? I'm planning on making this video public in around a month.

Hey lovely patrons,
here's a file with a lot of different approaches to how you could set up a prototyping "room" in TouchDesigner. It's a .zip containing the file and necessary assets I got from cgtrader.
I'll make a video on this in January, but I wanted to give you the option...

Going deeper into the technique I shared with the Explorer and Disciple tiers, here's a video in which we're using instancing to create a grid of boxes and change their sizes and colors based on texture input and noise and we add shadows to the 3D scene. This is similar to the Image Instanc...
2020-12-14 13:44:55 +0000 UTC View PostHey lovely supporters,
here's a fun little project I experimented with today. It's a bit simililar to the Image Instancing tutorial but got quite the different look and feel.
Enjoy ❤

In this video we have a look at how to use Noise (and the Noise COMP from the palette) to create some cool generative graphics in four examples.

In this video we're fusing a lot of techniques we've learned over the course of all of my videos. We base the visuals on the audio spectrum and use feedback, slope and displace to make it look pretty.
Shoutout to my new mic for picking up all the odd noises I make while speaking.

Hey explorers and disciples,
here's a .tox I made for simpler and quicker post processing of textures! Just drag and drop into your project.
Enjoy! ❤
In this video we use the Event CHOP and Instancing to create an abstract MIDI keyboard visualisation. This is Part 1 of at least two videos covering this topic.

Hi Explorers and Disciples,
here's another .tox! This one's for normalizing any audio input to a timesliced output between 0 and 1.
Enjoy ❤

Here's a file for you - a basic render setup component so you don't have to set up all the cam, lights etc. every time. Let me know if this is useful and if/how it can be improved!

In this video we convert SOPs to TOPs via CHOPs to be able to use this as instancing data and to be able to easily manipulate the data in TOPs with feedback, noise etc.
