What is Touchdesigner: A Simple Explanation for Visual, Interactive and Multimedia Creators
Although it is not easy to explain everything Touchdesigner does in such a short video, I have tried to summarize what I consider a sufficient explanation to clarify some doubts about the program. Support this and other tutorials 👉 / okamirufu
In short:
TouchDesigner is a versatile visual programming language used for creating real-time multimedia content. It allows artists, designers, and developers to build interactive installations, audiovisual performances, and complex generative art by connecting nodes called "operators." These operators handle various tasks such as image processing, 3D rendering, and data manipulation without the need for traditional coding. TouchDesigner integrates seamlessly with other software and hardware, making it a powerful tool for crafting innovative, interactive experiences. Its node-based interface makes it accessible for beginners while offering depth for advanced users.

Hey man, this is the kind of comment that truly motivates me to keep going. Thank you so much, you've really made my day!
This is gr8, a friend told me about touch designer, that I hadn’t heard of …this is a great overview. I could definitely get into this as the modular interface appears to keep things simple enough to later explore more complex ideas. Cheers

It's exactly like you mentioned, once you start exploring more about TD, you'll realize it has huge potential to expand into artistic areas, multimedia, the music scene, museums, experiences, etc. It's massive!
this is a great series please continue this!

Well done is Touch desiner used for non interactive visuals as well, things you can render and put on youtube or instagram or is better to use Blender, what do you see as the adventage compered to Blender, what do you think about open source alternatives such TOOLL3 ?
@OkamirufuV
Ай бұрын
you are absolutely right, you can also do rendering, and I actually use it quite a bit for all the videos on social media. mmm advantages compared to blender, I am not sure how flexible Blender is, for example, in managing LED lights for stages or creating an api that uses weather data to generate graphics. It might be possible, but I feel that the blender community is more focused on high-end 3D animation than interactivity or real-time for now. In that sense, Touchdesigner has an extensive community dedicated to interactivity and real-time applications, where you can find answers to everything. This seems to be a strong advantage to me. However, the answer really depends on your goals.

Blender is not for real time stuff. TD is built for it
Great info and introduction to Touchdesigner! Are you going to do a deep dive at some point, like an example project or something? This is a good format, though I'm not a huge fan of the obvious AI voice and script, so many giveaways of artificial writing. "It's like a playground where imagination meets technology, empowering blah blah blah" Ok robot 😂 But the visuals are very on-point, makes it easy to follow. That wins out for me, subbed.

Heyyo! Great video! I have a few questions. Is the software free? And Can I import textures or surfaces or do I have to build everything within Touchdesigner. Btw, you deserve more subscriber. Can't wait for you to have more of it.

Hi! Yes, TouchDesigner is free with certain limitations, but you can use almost everything it offers. The main limitation is the output video resolution, you can import textures and surfaces as well.

Side FXs Houdini is a node based VFX software, used more and more within the film and games industry. It has realtime output but its primarily suited for complex model generation or simulations. There's a lot of interesting generative visuals you can make with it, so interesting to see someone use similar software concepts instead for music visualisation @@OkamirufuV
