An interpretation of digital rain

Matrix digital rain, Matrix code or sometimes green rain, is the computer code featured in the Matrix series. The falling green code is a way of representing the activity of the virtual reality environment of the Matrix on screen by kinetic typography. All three Matrix movies, as well as the spin-off The Animatrix episodes, open with the code. It is a characteristic mark of the franchise, similar to the opening crawl in Star Wars.

Background[edit]

In the film, the code that comprises the Matrix itself is frequently represented as downward-flowing green characters. This code uses a custom typeface designed by Simon Whiteley,[1] which includes mirror images of half-width kana characters and Western Latin letters and numerals.[2] In a 2017 interview at CNET, he attributed the design to his wife, who comes from Japan, and added, 'I like to tell everybody that The Matrix's code is made out of Japanese sushi recipes'.[3] The effect resembles that of the older green screen displays, since the letters leave a fluorescent trace on the screen.[4]

One predecessor of the digital rain exists in a 'code-scene' of the movie Meteo [hu], a Hungarian experimental-pop culture movie from 1990. The 1995 cyberpunk film Ghost in the Shell, a strong influence on The Matrix,[5][6] features opening credits similar to the digital rain.

No official version of the code's typeface actually used in the Matrix trilogy and in the website for the game Path of Neo has been released. Several imitations have been made, mostly in the form of screensavers.

Cultural impact[edit]

A screensaver named XMatrix in XScreenSaver representing the digital rain

Dutch musician Arjen Anthony Lucassen named a track 'Digital Rain', in honour of the movie, on his 2010 album Victims of the Modern Age by his band Star One.

The effect also inspired the creation of many unofficial Matrix screensavers.[7]

This Matrix Code screensaver for Windows features the 'digital rain' from the movie trilogy The Matrix, starring Keanu Reeves. Long lines of green symbols scroll down the screen in random patterns, and every now and then a quote from the movie is displayed in the middle. By default, the resolution is set to a low 640x480, but this can be increased via the screensaver's settings menu, where you can also customize the matrix density and the percentage of symbols that are highlighted, and optionally disable the messages.
