|
| Is anyone using this software in production and can comment on
| its experience vs. TouchDesigner? TouchDesigner's node system
| always pissed me off, as it felt like an unnecessary barrier that

|
| Also in general, any VJs on hacker news?

| EDIT: Some more instructions to run the application would be

| up on my screen.
