Modelling Phyllotaxis and Zoetropes in TouchDesigner

Model the beauty and complexity of all sorts of plants using a simple - to - program algorithm in TouchDesigner! We will write a short GLSL shader that will implement 2D phyllotaxis, the process by which plants add new organs to their structure (e.g. petals, leaves, seeds, florets).
This fascinating algorithm gives rise to many scintillating patterns with just a few parameter tweaks, making it great for deep exploration!
