TDSW will host a workshop for TouchDesigner and machine learning techniques for collaborative performance between remote-artists!
About this Event
Many of machine learning technologies have allowed us to extract various information and generate another image from just an image in recent years because of rapid development of machine learning.
With machine learning, there are a lot of possibilities to create next level production even if its remote live performance with only camera streaming.
We will work with Runway ML, the software reducing the barrier to entry for machine learning, and TouchDesigner.
