TouchDesigner Spirograph Part 2: Drawing Modes – Another TouchDesigner Tutorial

In this video, we’ll add some additional drawing modes to the Spirograph drawing program that we created in the last video: https://youtu.be/2TFjKU5YgAU. This will allow for the program to draw several new styles that weren’t possible in the original (but are possible with a real Spirograph). With these new modes, we get closer to having a true recreation of the Spirograph in TouchDesigner.

Tag your images/videos with the hashtag #tdspirograph if you give this technique a shot, so that we can all see the results. I’m excited to see what you make with this technique!
