Glad you mentionend Touch Ed. I stopped using Touch for a decade or so and now I use it for as much as possible before committing to Houdini Maya or Nuke. It’s GLSL support is outstanding. I use Touch osc to present in no way that PowerPointers could dream of. Greg and his team created such a wonderful tool. It’s what Houdini should have become years ago. Real-time, and as mentioned on this list circa 2002, a visible heterogeneous scene graph. That’s my dinosaur talk. Cheers Brad, Graham
