TouchDesigner Event Tokyo 2025

Derivative and MUTEK.JP are excited to announce TouchDesigner Event Tokyo, taking place November 22–23, 2025, at Hikarie Hall B in Shibuya. This year, MUTEK.JP is proud to host the event as part of its 10th anniversary celebrations.

The event will bring together the team from Derivative—including founders Greg Hermanovic and Jarrett Smith, alongside Ben Voigt, Isabelle Rousset, and Michel Didier—together with leading members of the TouchDesigner community for two full days of exchange and creativity.

Schedule

• Event hours: 10:00–17:00 each day

• Six community presentations daily

• Evening social gathering + open beamers session until 21:00

• Followed by scheduled MUTEK.JP performances into the night

Call for Presentations

Derivative is inviting proposals for 35-minute and 20-minute talks focused on sharing knowledge and experiences—working with TouchDesigner, processes, problem-solving approaches, and key takeaways from projects—rather than portfolio overviews.

Additionally, there will be four lightning talks (10 minutes each), designed as short, high-impact presentations.

Compensation

• 35-minute presentation: US$600

• 20-minute presentation: US$400

• 10-minute lightning talk: US$100

Please note: travel and accommodation are not covered.

Important Dates

• Proposal submission deadline: September 5
• Ticket sales open: September 15

We look forward to welcoming the TouchDesigner community to Tokyo this November for two days of creativity, knowledge sharing, and collaboration.

Note: TouchDesigner workshops are also scheduled for November 19–20. Details will be announced soon.
