TouchDesigner Roundtable XXX

Organized by The NODE Institute, the TouchDesigner Roundtable Berlin is the meeting point for creatives and developers who work with the visual development platform TouchDesigner as well as everybody who is curious about the world of interactive media art and the people behind it.

To celebrate the 30th Roundtable, we will gather in the northern outskirts of Berlin, where the Spatial Media Lab will graciously host us in their newly inaugurated space and showcase their innovative surround sound setup with series of captivating works. The Spatial Media Lab is located inside Motorwerk, a large event location that does not only host a number of ateliers, workshops, co-working spaces and studios but also features space for up to 1500 visitors on 3500 m² in a historic industrial architecture.

The evening will commence with a presentation by Andrew Rahman and Timo Bittner, leaders of the Spatial Media Lab, followed by a highly anticipated showcase by media artist Alex Guevara. Subsequently, we’ll welcome Markus Heckmann from Derivative to join us with the latest new from the developpers of our favorite creative coding environment.

To secure your spot, please R.S.V.P – or get a supporter ticket!
