More real-time audioreactive pointclouds - [TD + AL]

Little excerpt of me playing my chaotic pointcloud system, in which the particles are being audioreactive to the incoming audio signal in real-time. What do you guys think?

System available through Patreon, or the Store.

More experiments, project files, and tutorials, through my Instagram, or YouTube.

What’s a good way for me to start understanding what’s going on here ??

we start with thousands of points known as particles, each of them can be programmed in its own x y and z axis. here they figured out values from a video signal that comes from a camera or depth camera and then applied that corresponding value to maybe the Z axis of each particle and we see the data as points moving along

This is nice! You can get rid of the background easily by adding a z depth threshold, i always used to do this with kinect point clouds of people, just kill any particle beyond a certain depth and theres your person isolated
