hyped to have found this as i get into TD

I had no idea TouchDesigner had replicants

Nice and Easy, I like it

Absolutely fantastic tutorial! I'm on Mac and dont have a Kinect so I changed the network to work with my keyboard, like a video game

First Jakc Dilaure tutorial I can't do :(

MIne didnt worked out as well lol, still great tutorial!

I do love CHOPS

Great tutorial! I'll try to recreate it but with other geomatrical forms, perhaps circles, triangles or other

Another great tutorial! Very happy with the results and versatility of the program

Great tutorial Jack! Thank you very much, it is quite funny to see how much work 2 simple lines of codes saves us from

Hello Jack! Great tutorial, loving the creativity! I was hoping you could advise with the execution, the boundary detection isn't working on my program, I've double check multiple times that my program follows yours and the code is properly typed, could you help me understand what isn't working?

This tutorial is amazing! Thank you so much, your explanations are very clear and easy to follow!

thanks for helping me understand replicants better! very clear teaching.

Can i put this on my laptop 's background?

Appreciate this tutorial. I am trying to reproduce some of the patterns shown in the movie Vertigo. Thank you!

I always get excited when I see you making TD tutorials both here and at immersivehq. Thanks Jack for being a content creator I've been following your tutorials for 2 years now :D

I have a Mac and Kinect TOP doesn't support it so what should I use instead of it

Awesome ! I will learn this ! Thank you so much !

Merci beaucoup Jack! Your num pad technique with math1, speed1 and math2 for rotation might solve a tricky problem I have with adjusting preset parameters, so this was really helpful to me - especially to learn more about CHOPS to do math. Used to love Asteroids as a kid. This could be third re - creation for me, starting with Basic on commodore 64 way back! Great memories! Even more exploration of CHOPS for math would be of interest if you are looking for topics....

Yes this was really useful to break down those equations into CHOP steps easily understood for those of us who suck at Python coding. I would welcome more tutorials on accomplishing things with CHOPS and also more on learning basic CHOP Execute python stuff. Thanks so much Jack!

Very clearly explained and quite educational Jack - thanks very much!

Thank you so much! I was looking for this so I could recreate the movement of the game "Achtung die Kurve".

Hello, may I ask why my Kinect channel added without lasso and closed?

Check this out ..it's for generative designers ruclips.net/video/TyaVrXIgfHs/видео.html

Huge thanks for this technique, but can we do to make a smooth return to original state of image, not a hard reset of feedback?

Hi, I really like your video. I was wondering if there is anyway to change the brush instead of a rectange ?

Thaz not bad, you can do the same things by comparing the alpha value and decting if the sum is 2 (alphanoise + alpha rectangle) if 2 stop moving. You will have an overlay of one pixel that can be faked by actually using 2 rectangle one for display one for bound

You can do the same things by gerating UV , pass those to a noise or a ramp, than use a pixel effect. Use those uv to remap s texture. All can be done in s glsl comp and like 10 line of code

You can generate UV , pass it with a noise or a ramp, than use a pixelator, than use s remap.

Nice and clear speaking… better than mine 4 sure LOL

I absolutely love your tutorial style, super unique idea as well. Thank you so much.

gracias!

Thank you for tutorial!

This is amazing! Thanks Jack!!!

hi，thank you！ this turorial is great！ btw，could you tell me what do you use to record screen in this tutorial？ Thanks you

Thanks for this. Really well delivered and super interesting. I look forward to seeing more of your content :)

amazing technique! would this work with other geometrical equations as well?

Had been looking forward to your tutorial uploads, they are reeeeaaaally helpful:) Truly appreciate for your effort!

rather than use the script sop + cache top, wouldn't generating the points for all the polygons then using a 4 point circle sop>copy sop>chopTo be more efficient? The cache top's only good if you have enough vram for it. or rather than use the cache top post render cache the points position instead. it's probably only a miner difference either way and a really nice intro into the script sop! Thanks for sharing.

As you’re building this, try changing the waveform of the LFOs that control the Script SOP to Triangle (instead of the default Sine wave). This will cause the shapes to “bounce” off the boundaries, which looks a little closer to the original.

Thanks for this! for some reason I get a script error in onValuechange..but I've double checked and it's the same as your script..I get: TypeError: unsupported operands type(s) for *: 'NoneType' and 'float'

Nice tutorial reminds me of some of the difficulties I had controlling the camera with an xbox controller to to act like a spaceship. Had to tackle all this trig only to face gimble lock pushing me into quaternions (that was 4 hours of head scratching to get my own quaternion chop network working, only to find the angle chop which did everything and might be useful here too). I would like to point out that yes this is functional and pretty inspiring it isn't an accurate representation of asteroid movement. you were right about needing to use acceleration*sin/cos(O) for delta velocity, not position. you then need put Dvelocity x/y into another speed chop get velocity x/y which can then be put in another speed chop for position. You'll need to put a limit of something reasonable in each step though. Can't wait for the asteroids, lasers and explosions (I'm giving that ago sometime this week :D )

very cool video and technique! Thank you for making this video!

Very nice! Thank you very much Jack! Could you share with us also the alternative network that you made to achieve the Spirograph without using the code? I ask this because some Spirograph use little ellipses inside the big circle instead of another circle. To achieve this through coding it would require finding the alternative mathematical formula but perhaps through TOPs you could easily substitute the geometry rolling inside? Thank you again and keep it up with your amazing tutorials! :)

For anyone who’s working through this technique - it’s actually better to attach the Constant MAT directly to the Geo COMP’s Material Parameter instead of using a Material SOP. SOPs are CPU-based and COMPs work with the GPU - you’ll have better performance when doing calculations on the GPU. It’s considered a best practice to apply materials via the Geo COMP. In the case of this network it might not make that much of a difference in terms of performance, but for those just building the network for the first time, I’d recommend making this small change. Let me know if you have any questions!

yooooo, great tutorials, keep posting others touchdesigner tutorials pelase! ahahahha

really interesting approach to TD ¡
