This beginner-friendly TouchDesigner workshop introduces participants to generative art and interactive visuals through hands-on exercises.
Join us for the closing event of (This room is a sculpture called) PROPHECY, Auriea Harvey’s solo exhibition at arebyte Digital Art Centre.
This workshop introduces artists and creative practitioners to Stable Diffusion through a combination of practice, practical guidance, and critical discussion.
This workshop is aimed at artists and creative practitioners interested in creating interactive and automated 3D environments using the Unity game engine. The sessions are designed for participants who are new to Unity and programming, but who are comfortable working with digital tools and creative experimentation.
The first session introduces Unity as a real-time 3D engine, covering the basics of the interface, 3D scene building, and C# scripting for movement and automation. Participants explore environment design, interaction logic, sound integration, and automated behaviours, with an introduction to OSC and non-conventional control methods. During the second session this knowledge will be applied to the creation and testing of an interactive, automated 3D environment.
By the end of the session, participants will
Gain hands-on experience building and customising 3D environments in Unity
Develop a foundational understanding of C# programming for automation and interaction
Learn how to integrate sound and non-conventional controllers using the OSC protocol
Understand creative workflows for building interactive and simulated environments
Do I need any particular skills?
No prior experience with Unity or programming is required. This workshop is suitable for beginners. Participants are expected to be familiar with digital creative tools and interfaces, and to approach the workshop with a creative, experimental, and problem-solving mindset.
What do I need to bring?
A personal laptop with Intel i5 (6th gen+), Ryzen 5+, or Apple Silicon; minimum 8GB RAM; compatible GPU; at least 10–15GB free storage; Windows 10/11, macOS 12+, or Ubuntu 20.04+.
