To end my series of experimentations with Quartz Composer that I started 2 months ago , here is my last patch:

Quartz Composer patch with a MIDI controllers receiver on the left, its outputs multiplied and smoothed before driving the colour and the position, rotation and size of a text sprite

It’s based on the previous one and is also driven by a Berhinger BCF-2000 MIDI controller. The purpose of this composition is to zoom a piece of text, give it some kind of velocity and change its color. Again, nothing fancy here: it’s just a simple patch, which source is available for download  .

As for the last time, I recorded a little demo to practice my new videomaking skills (and to find a justification for buying more video gear ;) ):
