Description:
This presentation demonstrates my custom system integrating real-time AI generation with laser mapping. Using StreamDiffusion via TouchDesigner, images are created and refined through an interactive feedback loop, then transformed into laser paths. The system maps both projections and laser traces onto surfaces, with Ableton Live enabling synchronized performance with music.
