Crimson Circuit-Real-time interactive effect system in TouchDesigner

This is a real-time interactive generative motion graphics experiment built in TouchDesigner, powered by MediaPipe face and hand tracking. I designed an effect pipeline that maps facial features and hand gestures into a wireframe-based “living network” visual language—dynamic connections and traveling particles continuously reconfigure around the performer. A clenched fist introduces a distinct variation in the effect’s behavior, while mouth-open shifts the visual mode from a more recognizable portrait-like state into a looser, sketch-like body depiction—creating an expressive, performer-driven interaction loop. The system is modular and parameterized, so intensity, connectivity, and motion rhythm can be tuned quickly and packaged into creator-facing presets/controls.
