Embracing story, with motion and technology.
In the void where meaning is fading away, a phoenix is sent to carry the light of meaning and purpose the light that pierces through the dark meaningless void to give a meaning to it and illuminate the world.
I can say I'm about to start living my dream, a dream that came to me in the most unexpected ways like it chose me and dragged me out of realities I never imagined leaving just to start living in a completely new reality.
We are very close to launching the new experience
I'm getting so impatient now 🙃
Launching soon!
This is a dope effect
WebGPU particle work like this is genuinely rare to see done well, most attempts either tank performance or look muddy. What's been the biggest technical wall building it, browser support or just getting the particle physics to read as "phoenix" instead of noise?
Great work🔥👏👏
Impressive
this is absolute cinema!
that looks so freaking cool men
Outstanding work
This feels more like a story than a product launch. The vision and emotion behind it really come through. Looking forward to seeing the final experience. ✨
That's just amazing! Will experiment with WebGPU more too!
The phoenix as the messenger of meaning is a strong framing device for a WebGPU piece, most tech demos skip the narrative layer entirely. Excited to see the full Lucerrá experience land, good luck with the launch.

AI can learn to recognize human emotion, but it can never feel it.
For the #envatochallenge, I created a video exploring the exact moment Artificial Intelligence begins to observe human feeling. I used Envato as my complete ecosystem: video stock, images, sound effects, audio, and AI tools.
The "Human by Design" Moment:
The AI tool originally generated a scene where the robot removed its own wires and then gave up, seemingly surrendering. At first, it felt like a standard scene, but my creative instinct pushed me to reverse the footage. By playing it backward, the tone completely shifted: instead of giving up at the end, the AI actively attempts to pull out its wires. It instantly gained a melancholic yet hopeful undertone.
the Sound Design:
Besides applying a robotic filter to the voiceover in my video editor, I sourced a heartbeat sound effect from Envato and tied it to every peak of emotion. In the end, as the screen fades to black, only the heartbeat remains. What does it mean? I’ll leave that to your own interpretation.

This work is very good and consistent. Does the detail of the heart mean that the AI has transformed into a human?
