SUMMARY:TouchDesigner Roundtable XXXVI
DESCRIPTION:The Kollage Kollectiv container space in Berlin becomes the setting for this 36th edition of the Roundtable — a site where architecture\, experimentation\, and community practice are already inseparable from the work being shown and discussed. Within this environment\, Pauline Kess\, Ed Rooth\, and Alessandra Fabris come together in conversation — each approaching image-making through a different entry point: embodied performance\, generative systems\, and spatial identity. \n\n\n\nRather than a single theme\, the focus emerges through friction and overlap: how visuals are produced in real time\, how bodies and interfaces negotiate control\, and how digital systems become performative environments in their own right. From choreographic interaction and sensor-based setups to app-driven audiovisual composition and identity-informed spatial media\, the exchange moves between tools\, perception\, and presence. \n\n\n\nSet inside a working\, repurposed infrastructure built for making rather than presenting\, the Roundtable reflects its surroundings: unfinished\, adaptive\, and in constant translation between idea and form. \n\n\n\nIf you can not attend the in-person event in Berlin\, do not worry — we will stream the talks on our YouTube channel. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n19:00 UHR / 7:00 PM / DOORS OPEN\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKollage Kollectiv\n\n\n\nImage Credit : Kollage Kollectiv\n\n\n\nKollage Kollectiv is an independent art crew rooted in Prenzlauer Berg\, where a repurposed container space has grown into a vibrant site for experimentation\, collaboration\, and community. What began as a creative experiment now unfolds as a living\, evolving hub for workshops\, installations\, and performative works. \n\n\n\nImage Credit : MXZEHN\n\n\n\nBuilt from recycled materials and guided by a strong DIY ethos\, the collective works at the intersection of creative coding\, electronic music\, visual arts\, and hands-on engineering. Their container structures host everything from interactive workshops to a “spaceship” stage and an ever-changing gallery space\, where light\, sound\, and 3D visuals are brought into dialogue through custom-built systems and hacked sensors. \n\n\n\n\nImage Credit : MXZEHN\n\n\n\nImage Credit : MXZEHN\n\n\n\n\nAt its core\, Kollage Kollectiv transforms resourcefulness into method — treating material limitation as a creative starting point. Within their space\, coders\, dancers\, musicians\, and visual artists meet to explore new forms of collaboration\, turning discarded matter into immersive\, multisensory environments and opening up a shared field for making\, testing\, and evolving ideas. \n\n\n\nkollagekollectiv.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReservation (free)\n\n\n\nPlease reserve your free spot. If you do not check in at the venue until 7.30 pm on the day of the Roundtable\, your spot will be made available to the folks on the waitlist. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupporter Tickets\n\n\n\nWant to support our work?

Working with TouchDesigner as her primary tool\, she creates abstract visual environments shaped by rhythm\, gesture\, and the dialogue between bodies and machines. Rooted in dance\, her work moves across performance\, projection\, and interactive scenography\, where visuals respond and spaces continuously transform. Through sensor-based systems\, projection\, and hands-on constructions often made from recycled materials\, she builds immersive environments that turn code into physical experience\, inviting movement\, exploration\, and connection. \n\n\n\npaulinekess.cominstagram.com/pauline.kess \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n21:00 UHR / 9:00 PM / ED ROOTH\n\n\n\nImage Credit : Hekuli – Made with Chromatose\n\n\n\nWe’re excited to welcome Ed Rooth to the Roundtable\, a developer and visual artist exploring real-time graphics through mobile devices and visual instruments. His latest project\, Chromatose\, is a shader-driven visual synthesizer for iPhone and iPad that transforms mobile devices into tools for generative and audio-reactive visuals. In this session\, Ed will share the journey of bringing TouchDesigner-inspired ideas into the iOS ecosystem\, discussing shaders\, Metal\, mobile graphics workflows\, and the design of creative tools that favour immediacy\, experimentation\, and live performance. \n\n\n\nchromatose.appinstagram.com/chromatose.app \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n22:00 UHR / 10:00 PM / Alessandra Fabris\n\n\n\nImage Credit : Alessandra Fabris\n\n\n\nAlessandra Fabris\, a designer and audiovisual artist is working between identity systems and real-time spatial media. With a background in graphic design and art direction\, her practice spans branding\, digital platforms\, and communication design\, translating visual languages into dynamic\, evolving formats. Alongside her design work\, she develops volumetric and sound-responsive systems for immersive environments and live performances\, where narrative\, rhythm\, and perception unfold over time. \n\n\n\naxfabris.cominstagram.com/axfabris \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe TD Roundtable XXXVI is being supported by:\n\n\n\nDerivative / derivative.ca \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe TD Roundtable XXXVI is MEETING AT:\n\n\n\nKollage KollectivLilli-Henoch-Straße 2110405 BerlinGermany \n\n\n\nPublic Transportation:S Bahn Greifswalder Straße
