Highlights from 6+ years of work in interactive installations, audiovisual performances, and generative art. Feeling proud to look back on it all together — thanks to everyone who’s been part of the journey so far :)

A couple weeks ago I performed at the Tipper and Friends music festival in Florida. It was a surreal and gratifying experience, since I’ve dreamt of performing at a festival for years.
•
My main set was for @madzachofficial as part of the @synesthesia.live team. We combined three separate visual streams into one final image, featuring a bunch of new Synesthesia shaders we’ve been coding. It was a blast to perform alongside Theron and Andrew, and big thanks to Mad Zach for bringing the heat.
•
The best part of the weekend was hanging with the incredible artists and production crew. Everyone was wildly talented, inspiring, and kind, and it was a real honor to be part of the team. Can’t wait for the next one!

New L2D operator family is live! 🥳 Comment “L2D” and I’ll send you the link
•
Huge shoutout to @dotsimulate and @function.str for developing TDFam, a tool that makes it simple to create custom op families. It’s available on GitHub so go check it out! Very exciting times for the community
•
Also want to thank @josefpelz for pioneering custom op families with T3D — L2D is heavily inspired by and named in reference to his work

Prismatic joins us for a banger of an episode!!! super inspirational, informative and just a super real and authentic conversation!!!!
For the SET we get an in depth look at the new TouchDesigner Node Family L2D !!!!
I don’t always DJ, but when I do…
My first DJ set (ever) was a combo album listening party turned 6-hour mixed set with 2 VJs, a 12x17 foot LED wall, audio-reactive LED strips and video effects running between 4 networked computers sending tempo, notes and audio from my machine, to the VJs, then sent to our 4th computer running the interactive LED wall with touch-reactive LiDAR effects. This was the most complicated and extensive collection of tech magic I’ve ever assembled. Thank you @lake_heckaman for building this with me and being there to make it all look easy. Rrrreally couldn’t have done it without you!
Thanks @prismatic.visuals and @jasonbeyers & thanks @sethescoville for help on the LEDs. Cheers to all my friends @ Palo Alto Networks @threat_vector_host@animo.et.fide@emilyrodenhuis and as always @touchdesigner

Excited to share Blur Plus, a powerful new blur component for TouchDesigner. It’s available for free on my Patreon - comment “blurplus” and I’ll send you the link :)
•
Blur Plus is designed for smooth, continuous blur animations and includes four advanced features you can mix and match — edge preservation, masking, blur mapping, and directional blur. Hope you find it useful!

Let’s talk global illumination 🗣️
•
Coding this component has definitely been one of the more challenging and gratifying projects I’ve done with shaders. Shoutout to SimonDev, GM Shaders and Jason Today for helping me understand radiance cascades. Comment “lit” and I’ll DM you the Patreon link :)

Real-time 2D global illumination in TouchDesigner. Component available now on my Patreon :)
•
The component applies global lighting to any TOP input. It has two different rendering methods and lots of features to experiment with — more on this soon!
