​​Inspired by the poignant moment in the film "The Great Gatsby," where Daisy Buchanan breaks her pearl necklace after receiving a letter from Gatsby, we have transformed the concept of 3D facial scanning into a representation of pearls in motion, each embodying a fragment of Daisy's story. Our approach involves dissecting each point from the 3D mesh and converting it into oscillating, dropping, and freely moving pearls.
