TouchDesigner Developer

We’re ARC Event Productions, a Bay-Area AV production company, developing an interactive “Reactive AI Wall” for a corporate celebration.Guests’ motion and gestures will generate and interact with real-time visuals—think falling snow that flows around people and a “Cheers!” animation when a glass is raised.
