TouchDesigner Spirograph using CHOPs - Another TouchDesigner Tutorial

Описание: At the request of another YouTuber, we'll look at recreating the Spirograph functionality found in the first video of this Spirograph series (   • Recreating a Spirograph in TouchDesigner -...  ) using only CHOPs (and no Python code!). This will allow for you to experiment with adding further CHOPs to the network to modify the mathematical function that generates the drawing and hopefully arrive at some unexpected results.

The video assumes that you’ve created the network found in the first video:    • Recreating a Spirograph in TouchDesigner -...  .

You may want to make a few adjustments to the CHOP network in the video, like adding a Math CHOP after each one of the Slider COMPs to have a way of adjusting the range of values that those sliders output. The speed slider is one case where this would be very useful (allowing you to draw at a faster rate).

Tag your images/videos with the hashtag #tdspirograph if you give this technique a shot, so that we can all see the results. I’m excited to see what you make with this technique!
