vvvv is a powerful visual programming environment designed for artists, designers, and technologists to create real-time generative art, interactive installations, and immersive visual experiences.

It also stands out with multi-threading capabilities for smooth performance and the option to export your patches as native Windows applications.
Used by professionals like Refik Anadol, vvvv is perfect for large-scale projects that demand real-time processing and complex visuals. Whether you’re crafting live shows or interactive spaces, vvvv provides the flexibility and power needed to push creative boundaries.
Start your vvvv career and get onboarded with the help of our seasoned vvvv instructors..
All our courses are designed to work live just as well as recorded!
Don’t worry if you’re unable to make it to any or all of the live lessons; the recordings will be available online the following day, complete with extensive learning resources. Recordings stay available for sale after the live session has been taking place.
You can either buy individual modules from the detailed list below or a bundle of your choice.
VVVV BEGINNERs BUNDLE

FUSE Bundle
FUSE has emerged as a prominent force in the realm of real-time content creation. Collaborating with pioneers like Refik Anadol and other development partners, it has established itself as the premier choice for real-time rendering in creative software studios globally. A ground-breaking VL library for vvvv, FUSE is making waves in the world of real-time content creation. For further information can be found here: FUSE Library Website, FUSE Library on GitHub, VVVV Website
FUSE is an open-source library designed for visually programming on the GPU, facilitating rapid workflows and modular approaches to accelerated graphics, logic, and computation. Created for use in vvvv gamma, FUSE embodies the ‘always runtime’ model, eliminating the need for build or compile processes, thus providing a seamless and instant design and programming experience. With the integration of the Stride 3D Engine in vvvv, FUSE enables the creation of advanced visuals including PBR materials, lighting, and post-effects, all achievable without writing a single line of code.
Christian Riekoff (aka @texone), a media artist based in Schwerin, will lead our series of courses on FUSE. He studied Experimental Media Design at the Berlin University of the Arts and Media Programming at the University of Applied Science Berlin. Christian’s work mainly focuses on interactive installations, generative systems and kinetic sculptures, merging a love for code with design skills.
