Overview

Matthew Ragan and MIR (Materializing Interactive Research) publish touchdesigner-instancing-examples, a GitHub catalog of geometry instancing techniques for TouchDesigner. Opening instancingTechniques.toe launches perform mode as a browsable index where each technique comes with a write-up and one-click access to its network; the example .tox modules include 2D and 3D arrays, complex rotation, Flex, GLSL combined with instances and more, with a table of contents at mir-lab.github.io.

It is a free direct download under the MIT license and needs no hardware, but the whole repository must be cloned or downloaded so the .toe can load its external .tox files. A well-organized reference for anyone learning instancing.
