This workshop is about interactive and algorithmic light and sound design, depending on the code and the movements and positions of the people in the room. The input data is a LiDAR laser 2D tracking system and self-built motion suites. As output we use the show technology of the lounge, i.e. moving heads and other lamps and the music system. The input data is provided via OSC, the output data is sent via ArtNet to the lighting console and analog to the sound console. We mainly work with Touchdesigner, but any other programming environment that can speak OSC and ArtNet or generate sounds is welcome. At the beginning there will be a short introduction to the technology so that you can then work independently on projects. The workshop takes place daily. The tracking system works with the "Pharus" software from the Ars Electronica Future Lab and the motion suites were created as part of a fellowship at the Academy for Theater and Digitality.
