VJing last night: I feel like I'm getting better at #livecoding every time I do it. I'm using P5LIVE offline on a Steam Deck, and projecting with OBS.
https://teddavis.org/p5live/
The only thing I'm missing from Resolume is the reactivity improvising to the musicians, using my MIDI controller. Both OBS and P5/Hydra can do MIDI, but not stable enough for me.
I'd prefer to use the Deck's gamepad. Tried a few solutions, but again nothing stable enough yet. The quest continues!
