I did an interactive art show Snail. This project wrapped up my 2-year journey in Arizona. It highly relied on the input of every audience, and every input was directly translated to the visual and sound in real time. The dark room, the repeating sounds, and the visual together created a sense of time and revealing. This project reflected where I was at during that time.

There were 3 elements: the input interface, the visual, and the sound. The input portal was fun by a HTML file on local server and collecting data points. TouchDesigner was the central brain to receive data, create visual, and the send signal to VCV Rack (virtual synth module). The signal were covered into voltage inside VCV Rack, controlling the pitch.

I am a big music fan and I was playing around with different ways to make audio-reactive visuals.

I used FFT analysis to drive particle behavior. By monitoring different frequency thresholds, the script triggers global strobe effects and individual particle scaling. The color evolution is handled via lerpColor, synchronizing the visual palette with the real-time energy of the music.

Explored WEBGL. yey

The scene useed procedural loops and lerp() logic to drive its kinetic expansion, translating a cinematic vision into a minimalist space. Press [Space] to expand the anatomy / Press [Z] to change projection mode / Press [X] to reverse environment / Press [R] to reset / Drag the mouse to orbit the 3D space.
