Draw yourhands up inthe air

Having fun with Mediapipe and shaders! This project uses your fingers as brushstrokes. When you hover over the grid cells, they not only change color—they also apply an effect to the video section in that cell. Each finger has a different effect and a different color, creating a visually interesting piece when drawn with multiple hands.

This project was featured during DEMO Festival 2025. Watching my son drawing on all those screens throughout the country was truly something special.
