Introduction to TouchDesigner
This course introduces TouchDesigner, a software platform for creating real-time, interactive media. Participants will create a basic particle-based installation that reacts to user input. Through the course, participants will gain an understanding of the basic principles behind the software. By the end of the course, they will have completed a functional installation and gained foundational skills for further exploration in TouchDesigner. Students will need to download the software (free). This can be done before or during the workshop.
Instructor: Ben Eskenazi and John Tischke are both senior BFA students in communication design.
