SUMMARY:Creation for Immersive Spaces in TouchDesigner
DESCRIPTION:Creation for Immersive Spaces in TouchDesigner\nAndrey Yamkovoy – Lecture in English Language\nAfter our recent excursion to the Grand Planetarium Berlin\, we are excited to present a deep dive into the creation of immersive media experiences. \nSince 2005\, Kiev based media-artist and creative technologist Andrey Yamkovoy has been extending the perception of what visual experiences can be\, by creating multimedia exhibitions\, real-time visual shows\, TouchDesigner based fulldome systems as well as virtual productions setups. \nAndrey will share his experiences of two decades in the immersive industry\, touching topics like production for fulldome content\, multi-projector fulldome calibration\, configuring massive multi screen setups and using TouchDesigner for projection mapping. He will reveal best practices\, potential problems and their solutions. In addition you will learn about 2d/3d\, immersive games\, stereo\, the realtime Maya fulldome viewport and media servers. \nThe lecture will be followed by an extensive Q&A session. \n_____________________________________ \nhttps://yamkovoy.com \nhttps://derivative.ca/community-post/front-pictures-and-fulldome-experience\nhttps://derivative.ca/community-post/front-pictures-multimedia-renaissance-pushing-limits-high-performance/60732\nhttps://derivative.ca/community-post/introducing-touchengine-and-front-pictures-screenberry-integration/64140

SUMMARY:Spatial Media Lab Meetup
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Lab!\nThe Spatial Media Lab is hosting their fourth meetup!\nThe goal for this meetup is to bring people in the field of spatial media together to connect and discuss\, hoping to grow the quality of the work and expand the tools that are created. As this meetup is non-hierarchical\, they will simply host the space and discuss what we are working on and then let the the night flow. If you have something you’d like to present\, please reach out to them in advance! \nThe theme of this meetup is Artists & Engineers. The Spatial Media Lab aims at bringing people together who are designing the tools for spatial media performances\, compositions\, and installations as well as people who make use of those tools to create a dialogue that pushes both parties forward. \nYou’ll hear from developers and engineers about what they are making and talk directly with the artists that use them\, discussing how they use the tools and what features they wish to see. We also want to hear from you what tools and techniques you’ve been using to make immersive sound and video art. \nThis month\, the Spatial Media Lab is rebuilding their physical presence in Berlin by holding the event at The NODE Institute in Neukölln. But\, so none of their digital friends feel left out\, they are trying the experiment of holding a hybrid digital/physical event. Digital participants can still join on Gather.Town\, we will have two computers set up in the room\, so our digital and physical participants can talk together. We’ll also have the presenters in Gather.Town so you won’t miss a thing. We look forward to everyone joining us on this experiment and we welcome any feedback! \n_____________________________________ \nThe online community can join digitally in Gather.Town. \nAfter the meetup they’ll meet at the digital bar (you just have to bring your own drinks) \nhttps://app.gather.town/invite?token=s2e_rSiVTciZLYuMyMut \nFacebook Event Link:\nhttps://fb.me/e/2BuHICVjX

DESCRIPTION:The TouchDesigner Roundtable Berlin is the meeting point for creatives and developers that work with the visual development platform TouchDesigner as well as everybody that is curious about the world of interactive media art and the people behind it.  \n_____________________________________ \nTo secure your spot in the studio\, please get a free ticket!Ticket sale starts on the 22nd of November\, 10 AMTickets are limited to 25 attendants. \n_____________________________________ \nWe will stream the talks on our Youtube channel: \n		 \nThe Presentations \nDoors: 19.30 Uhr / 7.30 PMThere will be three live presentations:\n			20:00 Uhr / 8.00 PM / Moritz Hilscher\n																					 \nMoritz Hilscher aka. Krumme Visuals is a software engineer and multimedia artist with a background in computer vision and machine learning. He is currently working for LaserAnimation Sollinger GmbH\, which is a developer and manufacturer of laser systems for a wide range of multimedia applications. His private works range from custom video effects exploiting vision phenomena\, AI based image generation and manipulation\, to laser installations. Moritz will demonstrate how to use the laserCHOP in TouchDesigner and talk about some specifics that need to be taken into account when creating content for lasers.https://laseranimation.com \n			21:00 Uhr / 9.00 PM / Defasten\n																					 \nPatrick Doan is a Montreal-born Canadian 3d artist based in Berlin\, who has been publishing his works as ‘‘defasten’’ since 2002. With a background in design\, film and architecture\, he now focuses on dynamic 3d real-time graphics for live performance\, music video\, installations and streaming. Working mainly in the events and music industry\, his future-facing visual designs manifest in audio reactive\, generative\, deconstructed geometric objects\, establishing a simulated digital reality.www.defasten.com \n			22:00 Uhr / 10.00 PM / Mickey van Olst\n																					 \nMickey van Olst is a Dutch artist based in Berlin. Operating with a variety of media\, often involving experimentation through technology\, his work is driven by a somewhat naive curiosity for electronics\, programming and design paired with the need for communication through unlikely and unwieldy formats. He will manifest how TouchDesigner can be used in order to assist in developing custom electronic hardware for art installations. Especially in regards to quickly prototyping control interfaces\, simulating on-site environments and behavior as well as developing communication between units.https://mickeyvanolst.com \n			23:00 Uhr / 11.00 PM / Socialising		 \nWe will close the meeting at 23.30 / 13.30 PM\, but we will reserve a table in the neighbouring OMEGA Bar for everybody who wants to continue… \n			Who is this for?		 \nThis is the Meetup for TouchDesigner interested open minds based in Berlin or visiting us in Berlin. Its a meeting point for creatives and visual developers\, interactive media\, digital art\, technology and design enthusiast. We are open to anyone who wants to join\, no matter if you are an expert or beginner\, a famous or breadless artists\, a designhead or technologist\, a piano player or techno musician.

SUMMARY:Cables Meetup at NODE
DESCRIPTION:Starting with a real-life meetup in August\, the Node Institute is partnering up with the creators of the node-based visual programming tool cables\nTopics will include future development of cables\, how to work on real world projects\, a look into the machine room and much more. Attendees will be able to show and tell their projects and workflows as well as participate in a small “jam” with everyone around to ask questions. \nThis will be the first cables meetup in the Node Institute and unfortunately all the seats are already taken. We promise to have more of these in the future though\, so stay tuned! \nWhat is Cables?\nCables itself is a tool for creating beautiful interactive content. With an easy to navigate interface and real time visuals\, it allows for rapid prototyping and fast adjustments. \nYou are provided with a set of operators\, such as mathematical functions\, shapes\, materials and post processing effects. Connect these to each other with virtual cables to create the experience you have in mind. Easily export your piece of work at any time. Embed it into your website or use it for any kind of creative installation. Check it out here: \nhttps://cables.gl \n
