Psychedelia VJ: Experiments in TouchDesigner

a workshop for Vector Festival at interaccess

In this introduction workshop,  participants walked through the process of using the creative code software Touch Designer to create generative and reactive visuals for musical performances. Participants learnt the fundamentals of node-based coding, with a focus on working alongside audio/musicians and considering aspects of performance in their work. Participants additionally explored with the basics of site-specific projection mapping while using 1 or more projectors. The end goal of the workshop was to leave all attendees with the necessary skills to further experiment with generative visualizations and perform live at their next DJd event.
