Audiovisual Potluck!

A monthly audiovisual meetup at Creative Coding Utrecht, organised with ARDEMAR. Each evening opens with a short workshop on a way of making visuals that newer software has left behind — graphic scores, 16-bit game art, 3D fractal environments — taught in TouchDesigner, Max/MSP or the original program.

The workshop then turns into a jam: a projector and a wall for each visual artist, live visuals and music answering one another.

1st edition — A look at the history of audiovisual work, then Ableton Live connected to TouchDesigner: MIDI sent from Live drives a drawing-based audiovisual piece.

2nd edition — Building your own 3D fractal structures in the open-source Mandelbulb3D and rendering moving images from them, then bringing the exports into TouchDesigner as point clouds and meshes and working variations on them.
