Creating Generative Visuals with Complex Systems - Simon Alexander-Adams

[@abru8699]

Finally some serious reaction-diffusion , thanks man

[@abrahamthalisker6800]

Thanks! Great lesson. In your shader @ 1 :19, you could go further with bitwise optimisation since the number you pass to getRule() is always equal to NE + NN

[@Udart]

You're a good teacher, very clear and precise tutorial on cellular automata and reaction diffusion. Thank you

[@dreamaera]

A wealth of knowledge, thanks so much for sharing these recordings, definitely diving into TD soon, especially after seeing the possibilities with reaction diffusion :)

[@ninobasilashvili5816]

Thank you so much! Really amazing that you are doing this!

[@isoscelesVJ]

Hell yeah! Feedback loops for life.

[@leitflux]

Finallllllyyyy!!!!! This guy is the best.

[@mariahvicary]

This is so cool!! Thank you so much for all your content!

[@tomcarlile4336]

Great workshop, bravo! Many thx

[@unveil7762]

Now i 've got why every body is making this design around!!! LOL !! Thanks for sharing !!

[@nfstreet]

Thank you so much for the thoughtful tutorial!

[@Tarnith]

Great video, thanks for sharing this!

[@JaeleNistra]

oh so the people who teach this stuff also just mess around with things randomly till they have something they like too. I WAS DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT THE WHOLE TIME lol

[@JaeleNistra]

That being said seeing the results of someones 5 years of messing around psudorandomly condenced into a 2 hour period is pretty nice and i do appreciate the experiance (at 200% speed)

[@polyhop]

​@@JaeleNistra Haha, yes there's a bit of experimentation involved, at least in my process. I would also add that it's key to retain the connection between the changes made and related outcome. Building a two-way street between action and result so you can work from either end (work towards a desired outcome vs. finding surprising outcomes by trying new things.) Easier in some instances than others (as complex systems are by nature challenging to predict) but for the larger picture I find this to be important in my own practice!

[@jasiahbenedict828]

i guess I'm quite randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to stream newly released series online ?

[@brettkaiser4467]

@Jasiah Benedict lately I have been using FlixZone. You can find it on google =)

[@Airhaert]

This is epic! Thank you for sharing!

[@xenoscapeteam9268]

I am thinking about putting some of this in my game, would make cool visuals

[@nullish0]

Right on

[@CharleyM]

@17:26 you're talking about the tables and the convolve. In the version I have, there's a 'scale' slider in the convolve tool and it seems to be important in getting this to generate something, otherwise I just have a black cube in the center of my screen. Why isn't this in your video? I understand that it's older, but any idea what the scale might have been set to when you made this video?

[@JeremydePrisco]

Excellent instruction!

[@SunflowerrAichi1976]

So interesting job! thanks for sharing it!!

[@MiguelAngelGarcia-cs5zi]

Thanks for sharing man!!!

[@hinduspl]

Do you have on your patreon video about building that network or file only?

[@scrapeape]

This is awesome. The numbers in the tables in my sharpen are totally different. Has it been updated lately? Can I replace those numbers with what you have on yours and expect the same result?

[@gridnik]

I have the same problem- everything is different for me.... i have tried editing the numbers without any progress...

[@weihuang4982]

Thank you!

[@gridnik]

13:13 min in and my program is not doing what you are doing- that diffusion pattern is not showing up when i drag the null on the feedback.... damn. It is very disheartening when i fail after 5 sec hahaha. I literally am doing what you are but get totally different result- HOW?

[@gridnik]

Even the downloaded example file "raction diffusion basic example.toe" is not showing any reaction difusion...

[@gridnik]

Could it be because im using the free software and not the paid one? Im working up to buying it but i need to get some progress first before spending cash i dont really have.

[@iamthetinkerman]

Where's the best place to start learning this from scratch? Thanks

[@Creadec]

Can't catch fantastic foil effect on 20:56 =( By this loop i always get a two-tone image. Never gray scale =( Anyway class is awesome! Thanks!

[@TouchDesignerOfficial]

Did you make sure your pixel format is set correctly? If you download the example file does it work for you?

[@Creadec]

@@TouchDesignerOfficial I'v set 1024 for all TOPs if you mean resolution. Didn't touch any default graphic preferences. Tried to backward the example file but get no result. I'll try to repeat all process. Really like this effect. Thanks for response! Also absolutely love your product. I'd searching something like that for long time to make generative and phisics. Tryed to use Processing and Blender and it wasn't so fun. It made my quarantine happier :)

[@Sushsisjjsiajsus]

@@Creadec I had the same issue, don't know why

[@horacemai7032]

this is so nice！！！！！

[@namuuny3714]

Cool! What is the name of the software?

[@thomashosek8784]

it's called touchdesigner

[@carlalubrina9478]

thankssss!!!!!!!!!!

[@arteinsana4014]

Grat um tu um tutorial um um um

Yawn. Sharing ‘roadie’ setup footage is tiresome and taking the time to sort out a few time stamps is a professional courtesy to the audience.

[@deadmusik9969]

was on the same boat
