Abstract A proof-of-concept collection of patches that shares polygon mesh geometry from Grasshopper to TouchDesigner in realtime via OSC. The ability to share mesh data between Grasshopper and TouchDesigner allows for a streamlined workflow when projection-mapping geometry. It eliminates a mesh export/import step, and doesn’t rely on TouchDesigner’s mesh editing tools. It streamlines the process…

“Dots” is an interaction between human and computational order and chaos. Notes are generated in an circular ordered, repetitive pattern. Connection lines represent human-played audio tones, line length representing pitch. While notes are played by the human musician, the notes wander away from their original places, warping and distorting the connecting lines, resulting in a more chaotic and…
