Summary:
Episode 10 of Lucky Star Livestream presents the first official animation release of Vacancy and Memory Glass, two deeply personal and spiritually inspired collections that stem from lived experiences and historical reclamation.
⚠ Trigger Warning: Discussion of DV from a DV survivor.
Vacancy – A Moment of Reflection in Isolation
Vacancy captures an intimate and deeply personal moment in my life. While working the night shift in a manual labor job, I often delayed returning home to a DV situation, instead taking refuge in a nearby park for a fleeting moment of peace. With the power of AI, I have recreated this experience—the eerie solitude, the reflective quiet, the emotional weight of temporary escape. The color palette evokes the profound sense of isolation and introspection I felt in those moments.
In light of recent national events, I found myself drawn back to this space, now using my experience for healing and solidarity. This collection is available as an extremely limited edition print run and rare digital collectibles, providing a way for those in need of connection to find solace in shared experience.

Memory Glass – Preserving Cultural Remembrance Through AI & Blockchain
Memory Glass represents the very core of why I exist in the AI space—as a creative force reclaiming lost narratives.
This showcase introduces early 3D-inspired modeling concepts for figurines based on Memory Jars (or Jugs), a special remembrance craft with roots in a rare tradition maintained by those of my specific national origins. Over time, the story of these jars has been co-opted, misrepresented, and commodified, stripping away the depth of their original intent.
In an effort to preserve this history on the blockchain, I’ve used AI to re-envision how we might have honored our loved ones if given the resources that were denied. In doing so, I reveal my true origins to those who recognize them and invite a deeper dialogue about history, preservation, and identity.
