  |   Houdini is not just for visual effects. With the availability of    |
  |   Houdini for all platforms and the variety of training materials     |
  |   now available, Houdini is making headway into the world of motion   |
  |   graphics.                                                           |
  |                                                                       |
  |   The procedural nature of Houdini, combined with its powerful        |
  |   dynamics system, make Houdini an important player in visualizing    |
  |   data and allowing graphic artists to express themselves in new      |
  |   and powerful ways.                                                  |
  |                                                                       |
  |   In this tutorial series we are going to look at a current design    |
  |   trend - data connections -  and build a procedural system in        |
  |   Houdini to accomplish this task while harnessing all the            |
  |   additional benefits Houdini has to offer.                           |
  |                                                                       |
  |   We'll learn how to draw connections between relational points of    |
  |   data (in this case, by proximity), create text readouts of the      |
  |   data, and combine this system with Houdini's dynamics network.      |
  |                                                                       |
  |   At the end of the tutorial, the viewer will know how to create a    |
  |   reusable digital asset to handle this effect, and hopefully         |
  |   learn a few new tricks along the way!                               |
