Lacquer Conduit


Today I read about a really awesome tool called Conduit. It is a lot like Shake though it is a fair bit more responsive and also a bit less hard core. It seems it doesn't quite meet shake on flexibility though the fresh design is quite nice. The toolkit is based on GPU calculations which makes it a lot faster and more capable of doing realtime adjustments. In the interface there is even a dashboard like pane that lets one pipe realtime variables from though any node while looking at a given output. I imagine this could be quite convenient for client sessions.

I would still love to see a program as flexible as Shake built with core image so it can run a bit faster. For the time being i prefer the shake interface a bit.

Conduit seems to be made by Lacquer and distributed by GarageDV. I hate DV. Also, I heard about it all from ProLost. Also, there are some videos introducing features and techniques and so forth.
