This story is adapted from the 8-book novel series, The Computational Universe, Book 1: Xinglong Awakening, with parts of the story drawn from Chapter 1.
It is about Liang Feng and her nightmare, which is also the nightmare of Xinglong. This is an experimental piece, where I experimented with the text-to-video feature of Veo3. It was my first experience with Veo3, and it exceeded my expectations. Because it was almost pure text-to-video, Liang Feng’s face changed a bit between frames. I will also change Liang Feng’s face when I proceed with the series, using image-to-video as my standard process.
