5 Mins to Opening is part of the Jelly City narrative within the Auntieverse. This episode offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the Jelly Mall, capturing the varied activities of aunties and jelly-like creatures just five minutes before opening hours. From frenzied preparations to calm readiness, the spectrum of activity is as varied as the shops and jelly inhabitants themselves. Yet, the nature of the goods or services offered at the Jelly Mall remains a mystery.

Set within the Auntieverse, Jelly City is a world where aunties and jelly creatures navigate a unique marketplace, operating within their own logic and systems. It is part of a larger, evolving universe created by Niceaunties, an artist who uses AI and digital media to explore themes of ageing, beauty, consumerism, and cultural narratives.
Auntieverse is a parallel world where aunties exist beyond societal expectations, moving through speculative economies, shifting trends, and reimagined environments. Niceaunties examines everyday life and reinterprets familiar archetypes through digital visuals, videos, and physical installations.

5 Mins to Opening was created using AI-generated visuals, AI video sequences, AI music, and AI sound effects, then edited using traditional video tools by the human artist Niceaunties.
