Thomas Mann, who has a background in architecture and his friends founded the studio FRAMEFIELD ten years ago, to craft user-centered apps for VR, AR, 3D and medical. To that end, they developed the open-source software TOOLL. It leverages visual programming to provide a workflow for realtime graphics, creative coding and procedural animations. With origins in the demo scene TOOLL has extensive methods for syncing with music and the completely rewritten version 3 focusses on live performance and VJing.
