Nishikigoi

Nishikigoi is a generative piece that uses p5.js to create fishes which swim on screen. Each piece is infinitely procedurally animated and has a couple of traits

There are 4 fish palettes (classic, white, gold, black), 4 environmental palettes (spring, summer, winter, void), two fin types, and a very special flower feature!

The patterns on the koi are also randomized. Some are symmetric while others are asymmetric. The number of spots, locations, and sizes are all randomly generated

This project explores recreating the meditative experience of watching fish swim idyllically by. I hope you enjoy!
