skeleton data without a kinect – touchdesigner tutorial

This is just a small hack to deal with data coming from the “interfaces” servers. Thanks to Jean-François Renaud for the inspiration to separate the channels.

Below this text you will find the names of the joints to put into the “rename” CHOP.

Everything You need to know and to download is linked through
http://interfaces.7pc.de

The Repo for the Server can be found at https://github.com/gandie/interfaces-docker

And if You have any questions ask them here or on https://discord.com/channels/1068875022220922900/1068875022220922902

There will be separate tutorials on how to install and how to connect to Derivative touchdesigner on this channel soon.

“Interfaces” will bridge between dance and generative art. It will be a data and knowledge base including a ton of open source code for everybody to create their own digital artwork from choreography.

This time we are featuring an open source motion capture system that we (mainly Lars) will be publishing very soon.
