Mooncode is an interactive object and web experience designed for people in different locations but under the same moon. It centers on a shared ritual: looking at the moon. Through a website, one person captures the moon in their sky to send a message, while the other unlocks it by photographing the moon from their own location.

Rather than appearing on a screen, the message is printed by a physical moon-shaped lamp with a rotating inner shell that reflects the current lunar phase. The printed messages can be kept and displayed over time, forming a tangible record of shared moments in an entire moon cycle. By combining digital verification, physical output, and celestial time, the project slows communication and shifts emotional exchange from instant digital feedback to a quiet, material experience.
