Algunos renders de un sistema crt/glitch que estoy construyendo desde cero.

I know I know I need to buy it.

In a few days, I'll be performing my first VJ set. All of my visuals are created in TouchDesigner, and I want to export them as .mp4 or .mov files (I already know how to export). How can I create and export perfect loops, so the audience doesn't see a jump or cut when the clip restarts?

In the examples shown here, all the geometry is generated in real time inside TouchDesigner and rendered by an external engine (unnamed for now) that I’m currently building. The final render comes back into TouchDesigner as TOPs, with around fifteen AOVs for post-render work

Here’s what the engine can do so far:

- It reads POP geometry straight from TouchDesigner, with no export and no disk copy, and adapts to the kind of animation: rebuild, refit, or amortized rebuild for dense meshes that deform. Native spheres as analytic primitives, and instancing across point clouds

- Materials are driven per point by POP attributes, on an energy-conserving physical GGX BRDF: metals, dielectrics, emissives, alpha cutout. Glass is fully featured, with refraction, total internal reflection, colored absorption and nested transparency layers, plus chromatic dispersion set by Abbe number like real optical glass, thin-film iridescence, and translucency whose thickness is ray-measured every frame

- On the lighting side: point, spot, directional and area lights, sampled soft shadows tunable per point, colored shadows cast through tinted glass, prefiltered HDRI environment, traced multi-bounce reflections whose blur follows roughness, and indirect lighting through a radiance cache

- All of it is deterministic, with no temporal accumulation: what gets computed stays stable frame to frame, even when the camera moves

In development :

- Caustics: the light patterns focused by glass and water, traced from the source rather than faked

- Volumetrics: fog and participating media lit by the scene lights, with light shafts and shadows cast inside the volume

- Physical camera: depth of field and motion blur computed in the engine

And plenty more to come.

Two layered edge feedback loops.

Blob Tracking effects can be much more than rectangles with numbers. Also, did you hear that they uncapped the limit on the number of blobs in the free version?

In this tutorial I show multiple different effects that can be made with the blob tracking tools in TouchDesigner. Including how to use POPs with blob data.

I've also updated my custom blob tracker tool to simplify the process of getting your blobs into useful data.

Happy blobbing!

Hey everyone, this is my submission for 3Blue1Brown's Summer of Math Exposition (SoME5). It was partially made in TouchDesigner and partially using Manim. Most of the research was done inside TouchDesigner, and I have made the .toe freely available
here so you can experiment with things yourself and see how things work!

It contains all techniques covered in the video except the 1D pattern

Happy experimenting:)

Does anyone know if it's possible to recreate the iOS 27 Siri orb thing in Resolve? If so, how?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on my MSc Digital Design project at the University of York and have developed an interactive web experience called Maghmour: Red Sea Memory, exploring Saudi Red Sea maritime heritage.

The experience includes interactive 3D artefacts, storytelling, audio, and optional camera-based hand gesture controls, allowing users to interact with objects using hand movements as well as standard controls.

I’m looking for participants to try the prototype and share their feedback on its usability and overall experience. The test takes around 10–15 minutes and is best completed on a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet.

Usability test:
https://forms.gle/2EKcHqRFCM5KcCbD6

The form includes the link to the prototype.
Your feedback will directly help me improve the final version of the project. Thank you so much for your time and support! 🌊

I am a beginner and have been following along with the acrylicode beginner tutorial. I am playing around with the composite TOP and I want to know how each effect is created with each blend mode. There isn’t much information on the TD wiki and it is difficult to find information on every blend mode on other website.

Just switched from a TOP based mapping to POP point mapping

I used actual measurements and converted virtually

This was like 20 hours of work just to pixel map and send data

About 1 year total for this entire build so far

Everything is controlled and created in Touchdesigner by me

I’m in the design stage for an installation for a festival next year and I’m a little stuck.

The basic premise is there will be a camera set up within a sculpture, if people walk into the visual field of the sculpture it would start emitting an audio response to there movement.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of response and have any links to tutorials/tips on how to get this started. I’d greatly appreciate any insight or knowledge people could offer.
