I really haven't done much here, or anywhere else for that matter, on account of life stuff—you know how it is.

That said, I'm still working on projects, particularly the Virtual World project now formally known as Terabyte. I can't reveal too much about it right now, but it's the culmination of much of my online ambitions. I'm not egotistical enough to say it's gonna be my magnum opus, but I do believe it contains more of my vision than any of my other endeavors.

As for fanart, I've really not had a good track record of fandoms as of late, so I haven't been inspired to make or share art for them. Terabyte's taken up a lot of my time and energy (along with gaming).

Otherwise, I'll keep you posted when I have greater updates.

I tend to jump from project to project with maddening unpredictability, so whether or not I can actually get any of these done (alone) is anyone's guess. At any rate, here's what to expect from me:

The Virtual World (temp title)

Formerly known as "After Game Night"

This started out as an idea for a massive crossover machinima/sprite animation that mutated into an exploration into a fictional "behind the scenes" of game development from the perspective of game characters. This then merged into an attempt to tell the story of the Vocaloids and their music-based world, creating a wholly virtual world populated by synthetic singers, fighters, and civilians alike.

A Course in Advanced Rebellion

A Steven Universe based AU-fiction exploring the science behind Gem life, the relationships between humans and Gems, and the conflicts between three distinct rebel groups with differing opinions on what is good for the Earth. You can find information on it here and here.

The Freaks We Know

An anthology project of one-off stories in the vein of the Twilight Zone and the Outer Limits, all centered around the concept of mixing reality with fantasy, especially where fantastic elements leak into real world situations, forcing people to adapt, fight back, or assimilate into the madness. Current stories in the works for this project include "Enter the Monster Zone", "Space Freaks", "Elements of the Apocalypse", "Extraterrestrial Friends Forever", and "You Work for Me, Said the Swain to the King".

Project Vibrant (temp title)

Formerly known as "Earth Defense Force C.R.A.C.K.P.O.T."

A burlesque of the Ultraman franchise set within a universe where rubbery size-shifters (known as the Vibrant) live alongside unpowered humans. Vibrant heroes Patricia (the Princess) and Rodney (the Rogue) fight against threats of all shapes and sizes, while learning that not every problem can be solved with theatrical heroics and an optimistic attitude. In its previous incarnation, the Princess worked for C.R.A.C.K.P.O.T., a ragtag team of monster fighters, to stop extraterrestrial threats, though I found the threats better writing than the heroes at times.

I also have some other shelved projects a bit too embarrassing for here (projects unshelved are denoted here by their former title), as well as various concepts for albums and art. Whether or not I'll be able to put them on display here, or anywhere else, is dependent on my muse.

Stay tuned!

Hello, my name is Celina, but my preferred online moniker is CyberneticCupcake. It's kind of a hybrid artist/business name, but one I think that suits me for a variety of purposes. I'm an artist on the autism and ADD spectrum struggling to find a platform for my expression. I only list my disabilities not to garner some kind of pity, but because I am ultimately proud of myself for my "faults" and how they've shaped my views as an artist and as a person.

I've been following the developments of this site since nearly the beginning, thinking about posting to this platform since I was a middle-school-age burgeoning Homestar Runner fan wanting to make rip-offs of it. Obviously, I've grown as an artist since those days, yet I still eager to create something in the vein of the web shows, movies, and television cartoons that have inspired me as a kid. I still owe that kid a chance at the big time.

I draw, animate, write, compose music, and dabble in technology. I originally animated in Flash and other programs, but since ditching the pricey and glitchy Creative Cloud software suite in late 2019, I've yearned to spread out into other programs and techniques that can help me convey my deepest dreams. I've recently tried to expand my songwriting and composing thanks to programs such as Vocaloid and Hookpad, though I'm still learning the technical side of audio and music production.

Hopefully, this will be among my growing list of platforms which I can use to post my arts and other goodies. I hope to post where else you can find my, but you should be able to search my username on most websites to see where else I can be found.
