TOUCHDESIGNER INSESSION 4.0

Join us this Friday July 10th for a scintillating 4th edition of InSession as Derivative developers tackle questions and work towards optimizing TouchDesigner projects.

 

FEATURED PARTICIPANT AND PROJECT:

Harvey Moon is a new media artist and a creator of tools and machines. His work centers around the ways technology mediates our perception of the world. Technology has always been used to extend our abilities beyond our human potential. With this inspiration, Harvey creates custom software, electronics or kinetic systems to produce new and unique works of art.

Harvey has built a simple system to capture a frame and convert it to 3D Actor geometry that can be used as static barriers for physics stuff.

The setup allows for (close to) real-time augmented reality projection mapping and Harvey thinks it would be cool to show and release to the community.

TOPICS WILL INCLUDE:

CV in python with TOP input.
Generating geometry dynamically based on camera input
Using dynamic geometry to interact with Bullet in AR projections

ON DECK FOR THE DERIVATIVE TEAM:

Eric Bonn
Markus Heckmann
Isabelle Rousset

 

HOW IT WORKS

TouchDesigner InSession will take place every three weeks. The format will be to have three consecutive participants each consult for up to 30 minutes with one or more members of our team. The event will be live-streamed and we encourage the community at large to tune in and ask their own questions in the chat. 

  • To apply, please fill out and submit this registration form. Before submitting please read carefully:

  • Incomplete registrations will not be considered. (“More info to come…” is not good enough.)

  • The session will be streamed online to the whole community. Make sure there is nothing secret in your project that you don’t want to reveal or you are not allowed to share.

  • We will use the latest Official and Experimental builds. Let us know what your project was created with.

  • Make sure your linked project or .tox file runs out of the box. For example be sure that any paths are relative to your project file.

  • If at all possible, break out issues with your project into smaller examples.

  • We encourage you to use TouchDesigner’s sample assets where possible.

  • Please be considerate of download sizes. A GB per project is too big.

The next session is scheduled for:
FRIDAY, JULY 10TH AT 14:00 EST
STREAMING LIVE ON YOUTUBE
