Particle Systems in TouchDesigner: Refik Anadol-Inspired Generative Art - Part 1
Offered By: The Interactive & Immersive HQ via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fundamentals of creating particle system-based generative artwork inspired by Refik Anadol's immersive installations in this 32-minute tutorial. Learn to set up a basic render pipeline, modify SOP geometry for particle generation, and control particle systems using TouchDesigner's built-in operators without coding. Discover techniques for adding surface attractors to apply attraction forces, emulating complex physics found in Anadol's artworks. Follow along as the instructor guides you through adjusting operator positions, adding shape details, fine-tuning particle movement, and creating center point attractions. Gain insights into the world of new media art and data visualization while developing skills in TouchDesigner for creating stunning visual effects.
