"Seeds of Tomorrow"This artwork envisions Central Pennsylvania as a place where tradition and innovation grow side by side. The farmland, a symbol of the region’s roots and resilience, blossoms into glowing crops with circuit-like leaves and fiber-optic flowers, representing the integration of technology into everyday life. People of all ages plant radiant seeds that rise into trees of knowledge, their luminous roots connecting across the fields to symbolize the strength of community and shared progress. In the distance, a futuristic skyline blends seamlessly with rolling hills, showing how urban innovation and rural heritage can coexist and thrive together. Above it all, an aurora of digital light stretches across the sky, a cosmic reminder of the limitless potential that emerges when people unite around technology and creativity. The piece captures the theme of connection — across generations, across geographies, and across time. It reflects the belief that by planting the seeds of innovation today, Central Pennsylvania can cultivate a vibrant, interconnected future where community and technology work in harmony to unleash unimaginable capacity.

"Fright Shift 1"Fright Shift is a series of AI-assisted poster designs that fuse spooky Americana with Central Pennsylvania’s road culture—rust-belt textures, chrome, truck-stop neon, and small-town landmarks—then render it with modern generative tools. The project itself is a collaboration between creative and technical communities: text prompts, model settings, and iterative image editing function like a “writers room” for visuals, where designers, engineers, and storytellers tune parameters together to reach a shared vision. In that way, the process mirrors the theme—bringing people with different technical fluencies into one creative loop unlocks outcomes that a single discipline couldn’t achieve. The posters are intentionally high-contrast and character-silhouetted (no faces) to invite public imagination, turning viewers into co-authors. That participatory quality maps to Central PA’s maker culture—print shops, car clubs, community theaters, and local cafés—where technology isn’t abstract; it’s hands-on. By channeling regional motifs through an ethical AI workflow (original prompts, custom variations, and manual compositing—not “in the style of” another artist), the work demonstrates how AI can expand local creative capacity while respecting authorship. In short: Fright Shift uses AI to translate uniquely Central PA stories into bold visuals, while the collaborative, parameter-driven production model shows how technologists and artists—together—generate more than either could alone. It’s a proof-of-concept that when our technology community connects with our cultural community, Central Pennsylvania doesn’t just keep up; it thrives.
