Description

Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.

Description

TouchDesigner enables the development of both the application engine and user interface within a single cohesive environment. You can create anything from straightforward functional prototypes to fully developed, sophisticated applications. Most software solutions necessitate an interface, whether it be technical or user-facing, to manage the system effectively. The robust set of control panel features permits the creation of tailored interfaces and unique logic. You have the freedom to design a front-end UI that showcases any desired aesthetics or functionalities. A comprehensive array of interactions is supported, including mouse-driven or touch-screen control panels, manipulation of 3D virtual spaces, gestural inputs, and collaborations among multiple users. At the heart of TouchDesigner’s design philosophy is a commitment to experimentation and iteration, establishing it as one of the most agile and versatile tools for rapid prototyping. Often, installations and live performances are not physically assembled until right before the event; however, TouchDesigner also enables the creation of pre-visualizations, allowing for creative exploration and innovation before the actual execution. This capability enhances the creative process by providing a platform for testing ideas and refining concepts in real-time.
