Max is a high-level visual programming language designed to music and multimedia projects used by programmers the world over. TouchDesigner on the other hand is a visual platform that lets you create amazing realtime projects and a variety of rich user experiences. When combined together they offer the ability to create powerful audio-visual applications and performance environments.As long as you have some knowledge of audio principles it doesn’t matter if you’re an artist, designer, musician, VJ, or researcher – you’ll be able to get the most out of these pieces of software.This book will give you the knowledge you need to design and build high quality audio-visual systems with Max and TouchDesigner, letting you discover both the design aspects as well as the experience with using these real-time systems. At the start of the book you’ll learn the various tool needed to generate audio-visual experiences in order to build an essential toolkit for any Max and project. Following on from that you’ll discover through a variety of tutorials how to combine tools such as Gen, Jitter, and TouchDesigner how to work alongside Max to create 2D and 3D visualizations, especially how to create generative art synchronized to audio.By the end of this book, you’ll be more than prepared to design and structure highly interactive real-time systems for your own projects and beyond!What You Will Learn:
