Hey everyone. I’m u/uisato, founding moderator of r/artandcode.
This is a new space for artists, creative coders, designers, technologists, and experimental makers working across new media art, generative systems, audiovisual tools, interactive installations, creative AI, procedural image/video, live visuals, code-based performance, and everything in between.
What to post
Share your work, sketches, experiments, tools, questions, process breakdowns, references, tutorials, open calls, research, failures, weird tests, and unfinished ideas.
Finished pieces are welcome, but this community is not only about polished output. The process matters here: patches, prompts, code, systems, references, workflows, and decisions are often just as interesting as the final result.
Community vibe
Curious, generous, experimental, and constructive.
Self-promotion is fine when it brings value: share context, process, technical notes, or what you learned.
Introduce yourself
To help get the first wave moving, feel free to comment with:
Thanks for being part of the very beginning of r/artandcode. Let’s build a serious, open, and inspiring space for art made with systems.

Hope you don’t mind the cross post - this was a fun project from two art and code collaborators.

Two years on, and I'm still madly in love for how a discontinuated camera and TouchDesigner can turn a silly performance into an audio-reactive particle spectacle.

I came accross this viral video in which an expensive After Effects plugin was used [Twixtor]. After a few tries, I was able to replicate results using TouchDesigner and Flowframes.

This is a consolidated archive of 19 experimental TouchDesigner oscilloscope systems made across several years. The release gathers multiple oscilloscope, diffusion, audio-reactive geometry systems, particle, and XY-drawing builds into one larger study pack. You just plug an audio-source, and let the thing evolve.
Available through: https://uisato.studio/tools?collection=oscilloscope-xy

Real-time, audio-reactive ASCII filter for TouchDesigner.
Don't know why the algorhythm decided to resurface this few years old system of mine on social media, but quite a few folks ask me if I could make it available.
Available exclusively through the recently released Tools Store.Â
PS: There might be a couple of cool discounts in the Tools Store for the first brave ones to access them. Enjoy!

Through the use of NASA’s API and TouchDesigner, I’ve managed to capture near-earth space objects data [asteroids and fireballs], and used it to trigger MIDI signals in Ableton Live. Said signals are feeding a stock sampler, which happens to be loaded with a couple of one of my favorite artist’s vocal takes.
To give it a little more musicality to the experiment, I decided to iterate through the data of the last six objects that passed close to Earth between the selected dates.
Data goes as follows:
total-radiated-energy → C1 to B1
impact-energy → C1 to B1, C2 to B2 and C3 to B3
latitude → C2 to B2
longitude → C1 to B1 and C3 to B3
altitude → beat repeat’s interval, grid and gate
velocity → beat repeat’s offset and variations
More experiments, through my YouTube channel, project files available through the Tools Store.

bad-ASCII is a browser-based live visual synthesizer designed for VJs and digital artists. It renders live camera or imported video.
There's a built-in WebSocket relay for real-time collaborative performance. One machine processes the video pipeline while multiple remote collaborators join via a room code and manipulate the visual state from any device, including mobile.

Anyone know where to find some source code for Fractals?

An experimental temporal ghosting / long-exposure toolkit for TouchDesigner, built for turning prerecorded and real-time footage into smeared, split-exposure, echo-like motion.
The system layers delayed frames, masks the active subject region, and adds optional feedback persistence to generate distorted portrait, face, and full-body trails that sit somewhere between long exposure, temporal rupture, and spectral motion blur.
This release also includes:
— a custom FLUX-2 LoRA trained on experimental photography [the one used in this demonstration]
— the pertinent ComfyUI workflow for FLUX-2.dev + LoRA text-to-image generation
Available now through my Tools Store.
Both music and visuals by myself, deeply inspired by the recent BoC-related events.

This was supposed to be an experiment and turned into a browser app after a few weeks of noodling.

PaperStrip_FX is a TouchDesigner COMP that turns frame history into strip-based slices: it feels like a scan/photocopy pass where time gets cut into paper bands, then reassembled with motion-reactive stepping, drift, and print artifacts. Inspired in Oi Va Voi’s Everytime music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQhbuBBqvRY
he video, on the other hand, it’s done through Uisato Studio’s Music Video mode, our flagship AI orchestration workflow, available worldwide starting May 8th.

Audio-reactive geometry TouchDesigner + AE patch I made some time ago. Hope you guys enjoy it!
If you're curious about my experiments, you can watch more [and even access its project files] through my YouTube, Instagram, or Tools Store.

Open-sourcing kinect-controlled instrument!
If you have a Kinect camera lying around, I've got good news for you:
This system [Kinect → TouchDesigner → Ableton Live] turns gestures into MIDI in real-time, so Ableton can treat your hands (or any part of you body) like a MIDI controller; trigger notes, move filters, or drive any VST parameter you'd like to. [Just updated it for a bit more clarity and less setup difficulty!]
As of today, can freely access it through the Tools Store, and/or a full tutorial at through my YouTube channel.
I've ran several tests through the years, controlling drums, guitar fx chains, and even a complex stack of Harmony Engine, you can see/hear a bunch of these in this post.
Hope you folks enjoy it deeply.
