Catro Nomix
Made with TouchDesigner. The sound is an audio resampling of the top row of pixels with some reverb. Watch in 1080p60 for best effect.
Audio-visual generation in Touchdesigner, exploring noise.
I tried to grow ice crystals but was growing islands instead. Growing shapes in TouchDesigner with rule-based pixel feedback while animating the rule parameters. The colors and cloud reflection are aplied as an effect after generating a 16-bit grayscale image. The ambient audio is generated in VCV Rack.

An atmospheric tutorial to get started with Kantare, my latest Touchdesigner project and one I decided to share with the community. It's essentially a wrapper application for Kantan Mapper, where multiple mappers can be created, managed and 'played back' with smooth fades, audio and OSC cues, making it a very rudimentary show control system. Mappings can be exported as tox files as well as UV (.exr), texture and b/w mask images. Everything is stored in a 'Kollection', which can also be exported and imported. Textures are also managed with drag and drop support, and editable trough the classic TouchDesigner network editor. The source file can be downloaded here: https://github.com/catronomix/SharedTox To find out more about Kantan Mapper: https://docs.derivative.ca/Palette:kantanMapper 00:00 - Setting up a Kollection 00:22 - Working with the editor 01:12 - Editing textures 04:20 - 15 minutes of messing around 18:12 - Playback mode
Based on 3 lidar scans from my phone, rendering and post effects in Touchdesigner and drone sounds from VCV Rack.
For this event, a 3D model of the stage was created and rendered in realtime with generative textures and 3D scenes. As an experiment, an extra laptop was set up where anyone could play Marble Marcher (3D fractal navigation game) or paint on a template of the stage with a liquid simulation. Aside from the video game, all elements of this show were custom built in TouchDesigner. Video and audio taken from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIgQbnxS-gQ with consent.
Simulating Conway's Game of Life in Touchdesigner with GLSL shader language, with a minimal control UI. The post processing uses a feedback network to resemble some kind of living blob. Audio: https://soundcloud.com/pipe-choir-2/exit-exit (CC-A 4)
Full stage illumination on stretch fabric provided by Opsys Deco. Psychedelic visuals focusing on peace and harmony, with footage of Ukrainian nature and traditional folk dancing.
Setting up at youth center Club 26 in Genk. I prepared custom real time animations based on the artwork for the event promotion, and using my custom built VJ tool quickly conformed the content to a set of panels for which the layout was unknown until the last minute. An XLR cable connected the DJ mixer to my workstation, for maximum audio-responsiveness.

Taking the latest iteration of Standalone Engine for a test drive 🙂 Decorations by De Kwallenfabriek https://www.facebook.com/dekwallenfabriek/
My personal VJ tool that I have been working on over the past year has received a lot of cool new content in the past month, more dynamic objects, and a new pipeline for easily converting any separate project to a spout output with preview and controls and use them as textures in the scene designer. The post FX library still needs an overhaul but that will be for next year, which I pray will be a bit more culturally permissive than past 2 years🙏 Many thanks to all the knowledge shared by the awesome Touchdesigner community which makes learning it very accessible! Pixels became vehicles for carrying data onto the gpu. I learned to think of the state of a virtual system as arrays pointing to arrays pointing to arrays etc... some end and bounce back, others point right back at the beginning, creating the loops that make realtime processing enjoyable. it's got a sort of fractal feel to it which I appreciate very much. And there is still a lot to discover, much training to be done in order to graduate from Wizard Academy and master all the Virtual Elements :)
