Animating Noise – TouchDesigner 10

Part of my TouchDesigner 10 series, where I cover topics or projects that can be covered in 10 minutes or less.

This video covers a few aspects of animating noise in TouchDesigner in the context of instancing. This includes quantization, shuffling the seed, smoothing discontinuous motion, and looping the animation to the timeline.

Please note this tutorial uses TouchDesigner Version 2023.11880. If you’re using an older or newer version there may be features that don’t work in exactly the same way.
