Experiment 003 – Touchdesigner – ParticleMan

=======================================
Overview:
=======================================
In this week experiment we are looking at more instancing, geometry and new depth of field, animation and generative content.

Taking inspiration from the amazing Dope on Wax by Logicoma (a 64kb PC Demo) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhqT0DhV9yE
Can we recreate the face section using native Touch implementation?
How can we start looking at advanced features to aid the creative vision?

While we use an animation COMP to timeline the interaction, all of the content is generative, so every time we play the video back, we are seeing a fully random particle experience thanks to noise and seeds!

Requirements:
=======================================

Built using TD2020:24520
There is an asset folder that contains both the audio and music used in this clip, they should auto link via the folder system, if not – make sure to point the file in DAT on the root to the correct “Assets” folder location on your drive.
=======================================
Usage:
=======================================

Open and run the software from the .toe file.

The timeline is set to once but running it from 1-1000 will play the full animation.

You can skip to any section on the timeline to generate the video as required.
