Mandala Sonification
Music creation driven by coloring
Modern life is increasingly defined by elevated stress and constant digital bombardment, creating a significant challenge for individuals seeking moments of peace and mental respite. Mandala coloring, as well as listening to music, are both recognized as tools for reducing stress and promoting a better mental state. The project proposes an innovative integration of these two methods.
Our mandala coloring station transforms artistic expression into a unique musical experience. As each participant colors, the system tracks their progress in real-time, linking different mandala sections to specific musical instruments and assigning a distinct note to each color. The music gradually unfolds, creating an immersive and calming interactive journey.
The participant’s coloring choices directly control the music, ensuring a unique and personalized sound for every mandala you create.
