What is Houdini?

Houdini was meticulously crafted to give artists the freedom to innovate, enabling them to generate various iterations and swiftly collaborate with their peers. Each action performed in Houdini is encapsulated within a node, which are interconnected to form networks that represent a "recipe" that can be adjusted for better results and reused to yield distinct outcomes. The procedural essence of Houdini stems from the nodes' ability to retain or transfer information (as attributes) throughout the process. The power of Houdini lies within these unique nodes, yet it also offers numerous viewport and shelf tools that facilitate an intuitive experience for artists. While users engage with the interface, Houdini automatically constructs the necessary networks and nodes in the background. This design empowers artists to venture into new creative avenues, as they can effortlessly diverge to investigate alternative solutions, making the platform both versatile and user-friendly. As a result, artists are not only able to create but can also adapt and refine their processes in real time, enhancing their overall creative journey.
