I crafted this piece with a retro-futuristic aesthetic in mind, intending it as a submission to an Open Call with the same theme. The main landscape, featuring the sun, land, stars, and planet, was created using TouchDesigner. As you're aware, everything in TouchDesigner can be made audio-reactive or interactive, adding depth to the experience. The jet was designed using Adobe Illustrator, and the entire video underwent post-processing in Adobe Premiere Pro. This versatile setup serves as a foundation for future creations and projects, possibly even a mini-game in my career down the line.
Astral Aura Studio
My name is Cheyenne, and I’m an artist based in Kansas City, MO. I find inspiration in fantasy and the beauty of the cosmos. I make digital illustrations of cute and colorful aliens as well as dreamy digital paintings inspired by nebulae and cloudy skies. My artwork explores the possibility of life in the cosmos, celebrates individuality, and embraces the beauty of the universe.
I also occasionally paint second-hand furniture, which I display at pop-up events. Each piece of furniture is hand-painted by me and reflects the aura or energy that I perceive from the furniture. I sell these pieces out of my studio in Kansas City, MO.

Evan's Piece "Inkling" is shown here tonight, it is a unique intersection between orchestral music, abstract animation, and neuroscience. By using multi-projection, musicians surrounding the gallery space, and cutting-edge electroencephalography (EEG) technology, Inkling is an immersive representation of the neural processes during an artist’s creative state.
