Projects
Data stories, systems, and a few things made by hand. The interactive ones live on their own little corners of thomaslucido.com.
Woodstock: Roll Tape
You've heard about 15% of Woodstock. Part I measures the gap. Part II rebuilds the whole weekend from the stage tapes.
Analog Arrivals
Mail art, one of one. If a card with this stamp found you, you're in the right place.
Détroit, 1000 Years
Drag a timeline through 1,000 years of Detroit. Thirty stops, 425 stories, and archive photos along the way.
City 'Til We Die
A fan-made history of Detroit City FC, from a rec league to a 15,000-seat stadium. Every number sourced.
LUCID
A personal operating system I built with AI agents. The capturing is automatic. The decisions are mine.
TomLucido.com
Odds are decent you've got the wrong Tom Lucido. A lobby for all of us, in the order we write back.
The Skytribe Engine
A mountain-island world, built in public: I talk canon with Claude, Reddit weighs in weekly, and the feedback shapes what comes next.
The Fuck-You Lineage
American rock and blues carried a very specific defiance for most of a century. Grunge wasn't where it started. It was where it peaked.
Cahier de Syllabes
The fix for the pronunciation Duolingo lets you get away with. Say every French sound out loud until it's actually right.
600 Miles
Fourteen months on an electric skateboard, stitched into one ride. Scroll to roll.
Bank Shot
Slingshot pinball meets mini golf. Six shots, fifteen seconds, a hundred levels. Bank it off the walls.
Coming soon
The next thing I build, write or make by hand lands here.
