Coding x Color is a unique project that seamlessly integrated technology, art, and community engagement. Taking the form of a vibrant mural, the project showcased the beauty of Monterey Bay's marine life through a combination of traditional painting and digital particle animation. The interactive experience allowed guests to activate a school of sardines through motion sensors, bringing the mural to life in a dynamic and engaging way. Community members came together to collaborate in the completion of the mural through spontaneous interactions. This project exemplifies the power of chance encounters and community collaboration.
