With the release of the Matrix Resurrections the iconic effects and style of the original have been back in the pubic discourse a bit more lately. I found myself doodling in P5.js around a Matrix style digital rain effect. In the films the rain seems to be made of a mix of Katakana and Arabic numerals (often flipped), so I started with Katakana and then wandered further afield. I ended up with this progressive walk through a few different character sets and I quite enjoy the effect.
