TouchDesigner Meetup - Shaders

Tekt (aka Tommy Etkin) is an artist and software developer. He produces rendered visuals, performs live as a VJ, and creates generative and interactive visual installation pieces.

He co-founded Immerse Studio (and its precursor, Optexture), where he works with a team on event production and installation art.

Josef Pelz is a generative artist and creative coder with a background in mathematical visualization and computer science. Inspired by physics, emerging behavior and algorithms, he links his passion for problem solving and aesthetics. He pursues real-time implementations to develop intuition through interaction.

Jason Ting is a new media artist based in New Haven, Connecticut. Today, his artistic practice focuses on the principle of "daily sketches", that is to say the creation of short digital animations using code. For his sketches, he sometimes spends up to a week exploring a theme or technique. Thanks to this, he has developed a fine understanding of multiple tools and techniques, as well as the visual language that accompanies them. His recent works mainly explore the interaction between form, color and movement. In his work, he is also largely inspired by human movement, forces found in nature, geometric patterns and light. He uses a wide variety of creative coding tools to create abstract and animated visuals. For instance, he recently used TouchDesigner and GLSL shaders.
