TouchDesigner allows both application engine and user interface to be built in one integrated environment. Create anything from simple functional prototypes right up to complete polished applications.

Most applications require an interface, either technical or user-facing, to control the system. An extensive control panel feature set allows for custom interfaces and logic. Design a front-end UI to have any look or features you want

I’ve had the privilege of walking with brands from their first step into the world to a few years later when they get acquired, building while watching their story grow, and take on a life of its own.

People often think progress comes from polishing what already exists, make it smoother, lighter, faster, more efficient.

But the biggest breakthroughs don’t actually come from refinement at all; they happen when opposing forces collide.

They're called Polar Compliments.


When two things that shouldn’t work together share a complementary quality, the opposites don’t cause compromise like you’d expect. They actually create a combination that’s brilliant.

Model Updates 1.4
We’ve rolled out a model upgrade to Atlas, delivering a meaningful leap in reasoning depth and output quality without altering the core experience.

What it unlocks

  • Stronger multi-step reasoning on complex prompts

  • More consistent decision-making across long interactions

  • Improved clarity when synthesizing abstract or ambiguous inputs

Model Updated 1.3
Atlas underwent a targeted fine-tuning cycle, retrained on domain-specific interaction patterns to better understand real-world use cases.

What it unlocks

  • Faster comprehension of user intent

  • Improved handling of long-context conversations

  • Reduced drift in multi-turn sessions

Model Updates 1.2
A behavioral update was applied to recalibrate how responses are framed—without changing the underlying intelligence.

What it unlocks​

Creatives often assume great work comes from wanting it badly enough. If a project struggles, the instinct is to push harder to add ambition, effort, or urgency.

But projects don’t usually fail because people don’t care. They fail because the constraints shaping the work were never made explicit.

That’s what the Iron Triangle explains. Every project is governed by three variables: time, cost, and quality. This is the key a successful project and we'll unpack it.

"Honestly I wish people would get board more often and take some time to carefully observe what their inner self and curiosity want to experience."

Computerized Adaptive Beat Alignment

This class explores the hidden skill behind groove, timing, and musical intuition: beat perception.

At its core is a breakthrough system used in modern music cognition research, an adaptive listening test that reveals how precisely you perceive rhythm. Instead of long, clunky assessments, this approach sharpens in real time, adjusting to your ear and isolating your true sensitivity to timing and beats.

This class wasn’t about tips or trends; it was about understanding the creative engine that lives underneath all craft, all design, all art. The act of making became less mystical and more powerful: a sequence you can trust, a practice you can return to, and a foundation you can build anything on.
