Python in TouchDesigner with Function Store

Sunday 15. March at 12:00 - 17:00

Doors open at 11:30. There will be some short breaks during the workshop, so times are estimated.

MOMS (Mind Over Matter Studio), Barcelona

Python is the scripting language that gives TouchDesigner its brain. While TouchDesigner’s node networks describe how data flows, Python is what lets you make decisions, store state, react to events, and build systems that evolve over time. In practice, Python lets you read and change operators, parameters, tables, and values while the project is running. This is how you build things like interaction logic, generative rules, automation, and tools that go beyond simple node wiring.

By the end of the workshop we learn to create a simple scene switcher system, manipulate operators, and visualize data using real-time measurements from the web.

This workshop is aimed at people with a good understanding of TouchDesigner, but no experience using Python outside simple expressions.

About the Teacher: Daniel Molnar (Function Store) is a Berlin-based artist working with sound, light, and real-time technology to craft immersive installations and live visuals. His work ranges from small experimental spaces and audiovisual performances to arena productions, blending technical precision with both musical and visual intuition.
