monome norns + TouchDesigner – awake in 3D: Visualization with TD – Another TouchDesigner Tutorial

In this second installment of the monome norns + TouchDesigner series, learn how to create a real-time 3D visualization in TouchDesigner of your current sequence in the awake script on the norns.

You’ll work through adding OSC output of various aspects of the sequences created with the awake script, routing that information to TouchDesigner, and then working with a variety of tools in TouchDesigner to create a real-time 3D visualization. In TouchDesigner, you’ll learn how to implement geometry instancing, a powerful technique that allows the use of a variety of different data sources to create and modify multiple copies of 3D geometry.
