Raag Canvas

This journey began with a simple thought “Why we like what we like?”
A Raga is a melodic framework for improvisation in Indian classical music: tied to specific times, moods, and seasons. Each raga has its own set of notes, almost like a personality.

I created a space where each seven note is assigned with a seven rainbow color: Sa(C) - Red, Re(D) - Orange, Ga(E) - Yellow, Ma(F) - Green, Pa(G) - Blue, Dha(A) - Indigo, Ni(B) - Violet, Sa(C) – Maroon.

The way these images animate reflects AI’s prompted imagination. Results based on each raag.

Process: Mapping note scale intensity through a color gradient

The website turns these notes into interactive, abstract art. Each shape plays a specific note when clicked

This is my way of experimenting with how music feels visually and emotionally. What happens when sound and sight overlap? Can a raga be both heard and seen? I don’t have all the answers, but it’s been amazing watching these connections unfold blending the boundaries between senses in ways that continue to surprise me.
