GLSL Particle Simulations in TouchDesigner Tutorial

Whether you’re a programmer or not, GLSL can initially seem intimidating. However, in this video, I aim to make it less daunting. In this tutorial I show how you can create a visually stunning particle system with just a few lines of code, demonstrating that it’s not as complex as it may seem.

Other topics covered in this video:
* Flow Fields
* Feedback Loops
* Pixel/TOP math
* Remap and Reorder TOPs
* Instancing Networks
