Interactive Digital Art Installation + MIDI Controller |
Using TouchDesigner I will create a Camera, Touch, and Audio reactive art installation that will be displayed through a projector on a 100 inch screen. The installation will feature unique visuals that play with data passed through video, kinetic, microphone etc.
I hope to create a piece that my friends and family can enjoy playing around with. I have always wanted to look into creative technology so this is the perfect oppurtunity to explore creativity and computers. Also learning a new software is a plus!
This installation is deeply inspired by the awesome Mattaniah Aytenfsu ✨ (https://youtu.be/8zHPGbraW4Q) As well as @karyn_nakamura on YouTube!
Also, I've been eager to start my first electronic project. While searching for a beginner project I came across the MIDI Controller. This immediately sparked my interest because of it's simplicity and connection to music. I will be following Leandro Linares "Building an Arduino MIDI Controller" (https://leandrolinares.com/blog/arduino-midi-controller/). I want to use the controller to play around with music in a DAW and incorporate it into my art installation.
