Abstract
Lucid Futures is a documentary animation featuring Sean Seo and Nikia Fenix that captures the fleeting movements and emotions of their final moments in undergrad. The film follows them as they envision futures centered around what brings—or might bring—them happiness. By collaborating with AI to craft abstract visualizations of these dreams, the piece bridges the collective potential of generative AI with deeply personal visions. It transcends the figurative and the possible, offering a glimpse into the powerful intersection of technology and human aspiration.
