Turning code into physical experience

Pauline Kess (Kollage Kollectiv) doesn't just make visuals in TouchDesigner — she builds environments that respond to bodies, movement, and space. Sensor-based systems, recycled materials, projection that transforms the room around it.

Her TD Roundtable talk is now up on YouTube — link in bio.

Four days. One hill. Zero stress.
LINK — the vvvv Summer Camp 2026 is a wrap. From June 25–28, the old Funkinstitut in Heidesee turned into a playground for patchers: beginners next to 20-year veterans, working groups forming and dissolving, projects prototyped between lake swims and communal cooking sessions.
No stages, no schedules packed to the minute. Just people, patches, and a Saturday night that delivered on the "parteey" promise.
Huge thanks to FairWurzeln e.V. for the space, to Jule & Seb, Rosi, Maxime, Joreg, and David for making it happen — and to evvvveryone who showed up with ideas, unfinished projects, and disco pants.
See you next summer. 🏕️

Missing the community already?

The 35th vvvv worldwide meetup happens July 16, 7pm CEST — in person at NODE Berlin or online. Artist presentations, announcements, and no vvvv knowledge required.
vvvv is free. Learning it just got easier.
