my free time project for the last couple weeks has been a memory palace emulation in touchdesigner but has started to grow its own legs. Those legs are based on other TD work I’ve done in the past
Warp and paint mode are working as I remember them
One of the additions that can be seen in a lot of this video is that in paint mode moving the delay slider beyond 0 will start to make “loops”. Using the freeze button and repositioning allows for you to draw multiple “loops” on the screen at once. There are lots of examples of this behavior in the video below (the elephant and mariah carey excerpts are good examples…)
https://www.instagram.com/p/CeJYOdxOhWt/ this is also a specific example of what I mean by “looping”
I have also added a temporal displacement section I’m not sure that it will make it into the first release though.

this is an example from a previous patch (not the current MP patch) of this type of displacement.
Variable mirroring allows you to set the angle of two mirrors instead of just having H&V mirrors. These also have motion controls like several of the other controls.
I also added a full color matte option so when you make a key instead of having the original image showing through it is a full color matte. Instead of a color matte it could be patched to be anything else too. This matte has motion controls and can do some really neat color replacement .

here are a couple examples of this color matte mode.
Additionally I beefed up the motion control section just a bit. I added S&H and random. You can variably S&H the main control input, the built in motion control LFO, or the random. The random value can also be slewed or not just like the main control and motion LFO.
there are a couple different sections in the video
displacement
displacement + paint looping
displacement + paint looping + color matte + temporal displacement
External key input
paint looping
variable mirroring
This compilation is more paint mode than warp mode but there are a couple warp pieces in the mix I just forgot which ones are warp
My hope with eventually being able to share the pieces and the larger patch would be that people are able to peak under the hood / play with rearranging the pieces / add some experimental sections of their own!
