The workshop is designed for artists, designers, VJs, students, creative coders, performers, and anyone interested in learning how to create real-time visual systems with TouchDesigner.

// By the end of the workshop, participants will have built their first real-time visual system in TouchDesigner and gained a practical understanding of how to continue developing interactive audiovisual projects. //
This workshop is also part of a 3-day beginner-friendly series on real-time audiovisual systems at Umbala.
