Bubble Th3ory
JBR VISUALS TV https://rad.live/content/channel/b0672da7-ad23-4e89-bbc2-b8465b5f25a9/ Bubble Th3ory is a soft-surreal audiovisual narrative born from a desire to suspend judgment, drift through dream logic, and let the imagination breathe in its most playful, poetic form. At its core, the work explores how visual rhythm, character motion, and lyrical language can fuse into an ambient meditation on movement, presence, and the emotional weight of whimsy. The visual concept began with isolated digital illustrations: a woman seated atop a round house waving to the camera from a pink bubble; a castle clinging to a cliff while a colossal rabbit teeters on its edge; a road unwinding into soft pastel distance with figures walking, floating, and waving. Each of these vignettes existed as quiet standalone images. But the inspiration was to connect these moments through a visual-musical narrative as well as through many iterations of AI-generated technology—— to animate them not just with motion, but with tone, atmosphere, and internal rhythm. The rap song that threads through Bubble Th3ory entitled “The JBR High” functions less like a performance and more like a narrator gliding with the viewer through the visual dream. The lyrics move with a gentle cadence, observing details in the scene like: “Man dancing’ on the road, Gotta cow slow your stroll. A dudes on a bubble, slidin’ down swagger flow” These lines act as both guide and witness — allowing the viewer to remain inside the spell of the world without ever fully waking up. Thematically, the piece lives in a liminal space between joy and reflection. The characters never rush. They wave. They slide. They turn slowly. Everything is rendered in deliberate motion, much like a moving painting. That choice reflects my ongoing interest in tempo as a form of resistance — resisting urgency, resisting logic, and allowing the subconscious to stretch into visible form. Bubble Th3ory also reflects a broader curatorial thread in my practice: exploring how AI and animation can be used not to mimic realism, but to exaggerate softness, absurdity, and wonder. The characters and their environments exist in a state of playful balance — air balloons, bubbles, bunnies, pastel skies. And yet, there’s always a subtle emotional undercurrent: the walker who never looks back, the giant bunny who might fall, the woman waving without a response. This tension — between joy and melancholy, absurdity and truth — is what animates Bubble Th3ory. It’s a world where everything floats, but nothing escapes meaning. Where softness isn't an aesthetic, but a lens. Where the surreal becomes a language for remembering how to feel. Song: THE JBR HIGH Woke up and I’m ridin’, ridin’- pink bubble dome kite in, kite in- Round house roof, yeah bunny site in, I’m sittin’ in my zone doin’ laps in the sky Wave hello to my boo," All skip to my Lou yeah, We flyin’, Straight up Pink bubble dome kite in, yeah we kite in- Castle to the left, big bunny on patrol He takin’ one step — all up in control Turned to the cam with a big ol’ grin Now he walkin’ down the hill, like “peace, I’m in” (Chorus) We bubble glidin’, yeah- Blue Linen yeah- slow ridin’ yeah- Oooh baby bunny sigtin’- She hoppin’ with her team, ears twitch with a lean We livin’ in a dream, wrapped up in a scene We bubble glidin’, yeah- Blue Linen yeah- slow ridin’ yeah- Man dancing’ on the road, Gotta cow slow your stroll A dudes on a bubble Slidin’ down swagger flow Everyones rollin’ up Party crib on the hill lady sit on her dome’ Queen waving from the throne Stripin’ on an elephant Girl twirling in her bouffant Party on the Hilltop Pink plane on the drop off All skip to my Lou yeah, We flyin’ Straight up Pink bubble dome kite in, yeah we kite in- We bubble glidin’, yeah- Blue Linen yeah- slow ridin’ yeah- Oooh baby bunny sigtin’- She hoppin’ with her team, ears twitch with a lean We livin’ in a dream, wrapped up in a scene We bubble glidin’, yeah- Blue Linen yeah- slow ridin’ yeah- We don’t walk fast, we just float with finesse Every step like a poem in a taffeta dress So if you see us cruisin’ past your field of view With bunnies and castles and a soft sky hue Don’t blink — just vibe, don’t ask us why We paint the sky strange, that’s just JBR’s high

Glow Folk
JBR TV https://rad.live/content/channel/b0672da7-ad23-4e89-bbc2-b8465b5f25a9/ Beneath the velvet underbelly of the sea, in a twilight zone lit by bio-blush and neon nonsense, lives the Glowfolk—a tribe of radiance sparked into brilliance by the Cube’s golden boom. It didn’t just explode, it expressed, sending waves of wild into every fin, feather, and fireproof scale below. Mini-Not, a pocket-sized astronaut who crash-landed on a bio mouse during a lunar miscalculation. Zips through kelp like it’s space junk. YeeHaw McNeptune, a rootin’ tootin’ cowboy who wrangled himself a seahorse who's possibly psychic. Fun fact: YeeHaw's seahorse, Bio is a cousin 3 times removed from Serina the Seahorse Star entranced by the Cube, and came out smiling, yep there's that. Blaze, the the little firefighter that could, rides up on a flamingo-colored dino who quenches coral fires with moonwater. There are many little characters in this film animation, keep watching to find out... The Cube is the catalyst—but Glowfolk? They’re the fun stuff.
