LUCICITY

The lucid city. Original multimedia digital and traditional art based on over 17 years of lucid dreaming

[luc1city]

Had a dream I was a character in a superhero crime show, starring alongside Jesus. Throughout the show, there was a running gag of whenever Jesus appeared onscreen he would just teleport behind you, which lead to this exchange:

Jesus: *teleports*

Me: Jesus Christ! Stop teleporting behind people, you scared the shit out of me

Jesus: I'm sorry, my child - what would you have me do differently?

Me: I don't know, you could fly down in beam of light from the heavens, surrounded by a choir of angels or something?

Jesus: Oh yeah, good idea

a poem overheard in a dream:

do you ever have need for a room or a bed do you ever hold tight

even these bird cells are terribly trained, right?

A figment from a dream -

A beautiful dog man carved in marble and stone, whose chest and body were adorned with jewels and roses

An unfinished WIP of a creature met in a dream (Logged November 17, 2024 - 8:50 AM). I have decided to call them Wolfgrave.

Wolfgrave was originally an alien in human form who was being hunted by the government, and we were trying to help them return to their home planet. We had constructed a giant dimensional portal - but as we sent the alien through, we were uncertain if it had actually worked, or if the portal had simply turned them into dust.

We had constructed a shrine to mourn our friend's potential death. But when we returned, we found a wolf lying down on top of the grave. As they rose to greet us, it held up one paw - as its skin slid back like a sleeve, revealing bony fingers - but it was difficult to tell if Wolfgrave was saying "hello", "stop", or "goodbye".

Images from my January 2026 art exhibition, Multitudes

Every image and word that appears is based on a person or creature I have met within a dream.

The largest central piece is a triptych series of artworks mounted on wood panels, designed to eventually house every dream character I have ever met over the past 17 years.

The book consists of a series of digital sketches, printed onto hand-aged paper using the decoupage method. The text was made from a series of linocut carvings, which were scanned and converted into a font.

Finally, there are a series of linocut prints and cynaotype prints based on screenshots from my previous VR project, Final_Final.

the madness continues

Today, someone asked me if there was anything I did that was not in any way related to my dreams, writing, or art

... I still don't have an answer

[luc1city]

So long, cowboy - until, if ever, we meet again

[luc1city]

My thumbs have turned into two clothy socks warring with one another I can feel the texture

Slimy gloss neon keys twitching

Words:

Slow-ajk! Words...

Which one

The sheets transform a cloth elephant I reached out to him but now he is approaching me an embracing elephant pulling in a bit too close where he lies beneath the bump of my knee beneath the sheets

[luc1city]

A museum, a unicorn a creature all pulled up high on strings making puppets with his art, his face

Partially hiding my face has lead to unusual results

My phone screen has bubbles turning into a real keyboard keyboard turning three dimensional keys like polished rocks surrounded by running water

Raindrops in my headphones I see raindrops on my phone

I see orphan faces glimpsing out between the stones

Jaguar made of moss trembling in the rain

The earth is dry and brittle

I hear someone whimpering through the trembling breaths within my nose but they don't match my rhythm.

[luc1city]

the horse men won't stop appearing in my dreams

[luc1city]

Had a dream where I encountered this fantastic beast. I found it on a deserted island, where I sat on the beach, shivering in the rain.

It was one of the largest creatures I've encountered. As it walked, trees brushed across its belly and bent beneath its weight like tall grass. It had this eldritch, incomprehensible quality it. Like an animal desperately trying, but failing, to be human.

Despite being fully aware I was dreaming, I found its presence quite terrifying. But as it bent down to my level, instead of a threat, it spoke only in a whisper; almost embarrassed. As it invited me to cuddle, and offered me shelter from the rain.

So of course, I obliged.

Weird dream about two apprentices, after a plane crash

Basically these different factions adopt these kids, and try to raise them to be strong and to fight

Kind afucked up tho bc they have all these obscure rules, like not letting the. Speak to each other, and constantly pitching them against one anogher

In one scene, the two girls tattoo themselves, and one of them carves into it with knife because it's faster

In another scene, the two girls are running beside each other. One of them is glowing brightly and carrying the sun, while the other runs in darkness. The sun reflects odd the side of the other girl's face, but its like she doesn't even realize the sun is there.
