PETAL
MODULAR LIGHTING SYSTEM
PIXELcontrol.toe is the full project file set up with audio and video file input, some premade effects, a pixel mapper component, and a DMX output. This file will work "out of the box" if you are plugging in to a system with the same specs as described in the Supervalid video. Otherwise, you will need to follow the instructions provided in PIXELintstructions.pdf Alternatively, if you are already familiar with Touchdesigner and wish to integrate our work into an existing build, you can download the individual components to drop into your project. For exmaple, if you have an effects chain built out using TOPs and a DMX out CHOP already set up with your existing rig, you can download PIXEL.tox and wire it up to your existing project!
Building the spool is relatively straightforward, but it does still require the use of a soldering iron, 3D printer, 2000W laser cutter, and drill a press.
Building the brain is on the more advanced side of things, in addition to requiring the use of a soldering iron, 3D printer, 2000W laser cutter, and drill a press, you will also need to bend acrylic and embed threaded inserts.
