Nodes are the core of the TouchDesigner networking experience. Not only are nodes at the center of the TouchDesigner development experience, their structure and layout communicate important information to both the creator and project collaborators. While there is a thriving community of TouchDesigner artists who focus on conceptualizing their network as a part of their artwork, the projects at SudoMagic are (generally) focused on function over form when it comes to network organization. For that reason we consider the following when building networks.
