About the artwork
"Remember the Alamo" is a lighthearted yet meaningful Strange History Channel feature that reimagines the events of the Alamo as a rental car dealership. The valiant employees of Bowie and Crockett battle with car keys, offering a playful and imaginative perspective on the iconic symbol of Texas history. This reinterpretation encourages viewers to reflect on the multifaceted nature of historical narratives and invites a fresh exploration of a well known story from the past.

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.
