Degree Project - Week 29 pt.2

  Semester  B :  Week 29 Pt. 2 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 29 Pt. 2 26/4/26 I still wasn't satisfied with the outcome of yesterday's attempt and really wanted to try again. Amidst my quest for inspiration, I found an artist on Instagram who mainly does work on Touch Designer and has done large-scale exhibitions to showcase her work . Unfortunately, she has not done any tutorials on the software, so it is going to be hard to understand the mechanics behind some of her pieces. Link to her work:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DWX7gfDjWpt/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I was especially captivated by this floating light visual with patches of dense particles. I found a tutorial on YouTube that might help me achieve this look, so I went for it.   The outcome wasn't very similar, but I was intrigued by what I already have, so I decided to stop there and started customising it to m...

Professional Practices - Week 29

Semester B:  Week 29 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 29 Updating the Portfolio Brainstorming Dean has been complaining about how my online portfolio resembles a tech website, such as Apple or Samsung. I finally decided to change it today.

Aristide Benoist's Portfolio I took those ideas and made adjustments to my current website. Before that, I selected two colour palettes that had two complementary colours to stand out.

Degree Project - Week 29

  Semester  B :  Week 29 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 29 Adding Sound I wanted to get some audio going for the dance installation, so I did some digging and found a tutorial (linked below) that showed me how to actually handle sound inside TouchDesigner. Steve and I got the hardware side sorted by hooking the laptop up to the amplifier with an aux cable, and we finally got the sound playing through the speakers. Right now, it’s just playing through YouTube Music, and not really part of the system yet.  My next big task is to figure out how to route that music directly into TouchDesigner so I can control the tracks through my movement, making the sound just as reactive as the fluid visuals. ...
