Interactive URL Particles (TouchDesigner)

This project demonstrates an interactive particle system in TouchDesigner where each particle is associated with a unique URL. Hovering over a particle displays its URL, and clicking on it opens the corresponding website in your default web browser.

Features

• Particle system built with Geometry Instancing
• Individual hover and click detection for each particle
• Per-particle selection
• Displays the URL of the selected particle
• Opens URLs in the default web browser
• Uses a CSV file to store all URLs
• The included CSV file contains 100 example websites that you can replace with your own list
