Hello from inside the Matrix.
This project livestreams from your webcam to put you in the Matrix, mapping each raining katakana character to a corresponding pixel brightness / color value.
This builds on top of a previous project I'd done, which was a simple reproduction of the digital rain animation in 2D.
Made with p5.js. Emily Xie is a generative artist, engineer, and educator living in NYC.
