About the artwork
In this episode of the Strange History Channel, we explore the history of the "Just Say No to A.I." movement, which gained global attention in 1984 following the release of James Cameron's iconic film, "The Terminator." As concerns about the dangers of artificial intelligence reached new heights with the "Deceptive AI Resistance Education" program (D.A.R.E.) aiming at educating students about the perils of A.I., the movement took an unexpected turn when Bill Clinton emerged as its champion during the 1992 presidential election. However, Clinton's true nature as a cyborg puppet was revealed, and the world witnessed the devastating consequences of his actions.

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.
