TouchDesigner: Artist Recreation

Mainly inspired by Camille Utterback’s installations, in which she uses different texts, icons, images, etc., to create abstract symbolic systems, as well as our relationship with interfaces and symbolic systems of the machines, I recreated her installation, Visual Resolve, 2000, an abstracted version of the participants created on the screen, where she explores the levels of the icons and the overall image. This project connects to the MAGNIFICATION project, and exploring how magnification can be experimented with and how it challenges our visual perception in a digital space.

TouchDesigner: Music Visualizer

I created my own VJ set with 4 unique audio reactive visualizers to play through Jungle's Candle Flame. I linked up TouchOSC to handle transitioning between the visualizers and controlling parameters in each visualizer.

TouchDesigner: Experimental Camera

This project explores designing a camera to capture specific subjects—whether a person, place, or object. It investigates how camera features and filters influence and alter our perception of these subjects. This project challenges conventional cameras by offering unique perspectives through their specialized functions and filter effects.

TouchDesigner: Animation

The conceptual focus is on distortion and pixelation, with an audio track that complements the visual theme. I experimented with different elements as starting points and built on the initial elements using other TOPs and CHOPs.
