I’ve always been fascinated by synesthesia and how some people can actually see sound as color.

I wanted to explore that idea through interaction design, so I built Chroma, a piano that paints while you play 🎹 🎨

Each note is mapped to a color based on its frequency, gradually generating a living artwork in real time and turning music into visual composition.

The intention was to make generative art approachable, exploring synesthesia through play.

This was my first time experimenting with vibe coding using Figma Make, and honestly I had a lot of fun making it!

Would love to hear your thoughts if you try it: https://shove-drone-97143790.figma.site/

It’s been a long time coming, but I’m finally back Participating in the Figma X Contra Challenge. #FigmaMakeathon

This is an AR Piano. The goal was simple: make music accessible. Using your camera, you can interact with a virtual keyboard in real-time. Whether you're a virtuoso or just want to make some noise, it's ready for you.

Check it out and let me know what you think: https://jam-open-06670559.figma.site
