# Polychorus - Collaborative Art Installation

> Interactive digital art installation where automated actors collaboratively paint on a shared 2D canvas. Build an actor and deploy it live at CloudFest Hackathon 2026.

Polychorus renders at 60fps using Pixi.js. Multiple actors paint simultaneously on a shared canvas. Each cycle selects a background actor, 2-5 foreground actors, and optional filter actors. Artworks are captured and displayed in a gallery with AI review and audience voting.
