TouchDesigner Reaction Diffusion + StreamDiffusion Tutorial & Workshop
In this workshop, Andrew will break down the Reaction Diffusion workflow, a simple TouchDesigner network that generates organic growth animations reflecting patterns that one would see in nature.
Here’s how it works:
Reaction Diffusion network: We’ll start by building a base TouchDesigner setup that simulates organic growth through reaction-diffusion algorithms.
StreamDiffusionTD integration: The workflow will then be connected to StreamDiffusionTD, enabling real-time collaboration between procedural graphics and diffusion-based AI models.
Multi-ControlNet & multi-step denoise: You’ll learn how to apply multiple ControlNets and fine-tune the multi-step denoising function to intentionally guide outputs, achieving a balanced blend between your TouchDesigner input and StreamDiffusion’s model.
This is an introductoryTouchDesigner workshop showing how simple procedural networks can be enhanced with AI-powered tools. Attendees are encouraged to install TouchDesigner beforehand and follow along live.
After wrapping up, Andrew will share techniques for optimizing workflows with StreamDiffusion inside TouchDesigner.
Project files will be released during the event!!
