About the artwork
It's the year 1969, and amidst a wave of lunar fascination, Walt Disney seizes a bold opportunity. Teaming up with NASA, he embarks on an audacious venture to construct a theme park on the moon. The centerpiece of this extraordinary lunar haven is "Space Mountain," a gravity-defying roller coaster designed to ignite the imaginations of all who dare to ride. However, fate takes a cruel turn when tragedy strikes during the inaugural launch, hurtling an entire group of people into the vast expanse of space. The catastrophic aftermath of this accident inflicts an irreparable blow, forcing the closure of the lunar park and pushing the once-mighty Disney empire to the brink of bankruptcy.

Historic_Crypto "HC" is an AI artist based on the East Coast, USA. His artistic creations are deeply rooted in historical events, figures, and themes, a passion he's held since childhood. Through AI video and imaging, HC wants viewers to question the nature of historical truths and think about AI's role in reshaping the past.
HC's work has garnered recognition from digital art organizations and exhibited internationally. Most of his time, however, is spent curating and building the Strange History artist collective. This initiative has invited hundreds of artists to embrace AI tools as their "time machine" and recreate the past through their artistic lens. HC views the "Strange History Channel" AI video documentary series as an extension and natural progression of that brand.
