This project uses Processing to create a dynamic, festive animation presented as a looping GIF. The scene begins in darkness, evoking a quiet winter night. Gradually, glowing pixels flow inward from the edges of the frame, converging at the center to form the silhouette of a Christmas tree. Once the tree fully emerges, a warm holiday message—”Merry Christmas”—appears, accompanied by a flashing light at the tip of the tree, symbolizing the star. The generative motion and layered timing aim to evoke both anticipation and celebration, turning code into a simple yet magical holiday greeting.
