[Release] LongExposureFX COMP | An experimental temporal ghosting toolkit
An experimental temporal ghosting / long-exposure toolkit for TouchDesigner, built for turning prerecorded and real-time footage into smeared, split-exposure, echo-like motion.
The system layers delayed frames, masks the active subject region, and adds optional feedback persistence to generate distorted portrait, face, and full-body trails that sit somewhere between long exposure, temporal rupture, and spectral motion blur.
This release also includes:
— a custom FLUX-2 LoRA trained on experimental photography [the one used in this demonstration]
— the pertinent ComfyUI workflow for FLUX-2.dev + LoRA text-to-image generation
Available now through my Tools Store.
Both music and visuals by myself, deeply inspired by the recent BoC-related events.
Volumetric particles test
Finally getting close to results I wanted to achieve. Managed to get up to 5mln particles realtime in 60fps
Heavily inspired by works of Samuel Pietri.

Anyone tried touchdesigner courses from The Node Institute ?
Any good? Worth the price? Or self taught with YouTube tutorials is more effective?
dude i really love TD, i 'm really glad it exists

New to TouchDesigner. Im live streaming trying to improve my workflow.
Anyone wanna hop on and let me know what I can improve on?
Stroke Borderline with object transparent
How to make a stroke/borderline of an object with transparent background (I mean I just need a stroke/borderline but I need to hide/transparent inside of object as I don't need the object). Please see the attached photo (as in the photo, the stroke of hen has a transparent background)
P.D.E / Experiment Nº3 - [Updated Open-Source Project Files]
A new output example from the updated version of my experimental multi-source video player for TouchDesigner, designed for frame-accurate video switching, playback manipulation, and display/render interventions. [And now, by popular demand, allowing even more video sources!]
Want access to the updated system + a detailed breakdown of exactly how I achieved the continuous motion effect on this piece? You can freely access it from Patreon, plus many more experiments through my Instagram profile.
so I've been working on this Cloud Simulation...
[Update] Audioreactive MRIs - [AVP 3]
This update introduces a new batch of synthetic MRI timelapses, alongside the exact settings used for generate more material in the same visual language.
The TouchDesigner network has also been optimized for faster, simpler use, and now includes an external Python tool for converting entire video folders into the frame sequences required by AVP in no time.
If you already own AVP 3, you know where to find it. If not, you can access it through Patreon or the Store.
Anyone that can help with visuals for my music?
I did explore TouchDesigner a little bit, but I already know Ableton, FL , Photoshop, Illustrator & Premiere.
I’m on my 30s and I don’t know if I can learn another APP only if I find it as a necessity.
I’m looking for someone that would like to collab with me and I’m happy to help back with sfx etc.
Let’s connect! Hulio
What approach gives results like this
I'm still a total beginner but I haven't seen any art made with touch designer that looks as "high quality" as this stuff

Just wondering if anyone has any idea or guesses how these may have been made, or if anyone has suggestions or links to learn about doing stuff in this vein
[Release] EEG-Driven Meditation System for TouchDesigner
A new output from this experimental real-time BCI system for TouchDesigner; a Brain-Computer Interface pipeline that reads live EEG signals, classifies your mental state, and autonomously generates responsive AI video: a meditation guide that adapts to your brain activity, second by second.
The system is built around OpenBCI (open-source hardware + software), but it's designed to work with most BCI headsets after a few pertinent tweaks to the OSC routing and channel-rename logic; Muse, Neurosity, BrainFlow-compatible devices, and others can all drive it.
The architecture is deliberately modular: meditation is only one possible application. A knowledgeable user can repurpose the same EEG → interpretation → generative-response pipeline into entirely different audiovisual systems, interactive installations, performance tools, or other BCI-driven experiments.
Accessible through both Patreon, and the Tools Store.
How did you learn Touch Designer when you first started?
I recently started learning TD from the official "100 Series". While the explanation is very easy to understand, I feel like each lesson is very disconnected. I'm sure it will all connect at some point but I wanted to ask if anyone has used these resources in their learning journey and whether they recommend it or not.
I would also love to hear how everyone learnt and what resources they recommend for an absolute beginner.
