Recovery

An older CD Label Design

    I sent out the main hard disc that was in use when we were writing the music, to recover the data. That disc crashed when I was in the middle of working on the book and I was forced to re-craft the publishing designs (multiple times).  But the music was also on that disc and when it crashed I lost six months of arranging work that was being done, along with the scoring. So I am hoping to recover that work, because as soon as the publishing work is finished I will be addressing the music. It's likely that Shawn will jump back in once the books are finished.

   We are working on one of the songs titled;

  "The Stone of Wisdom"  

Here is the link to that and another song a few on SoundCloud. 

IMS Technologies

 

  

    My focus of attention has been completing the Illustrated Storybooks, and in that regard, I am expecting to install a Digital Press into the production line.

   But another significant aspect of this project is Animatronics. I am looking at expanding Image of the Mind Studios to include IMS Technologies, a mechanical design and manufacturing operation, focusing on prototype development of Animatronics and Robotics, for The Gnomes and beyond.

   That being said, I will be looking for personnel familiar with electronics, nuematics, hydraulics, CNC setup & operation and computer programming. We have discussed methods of implementation, but in my mind MIDI is the most practical, because that syncs with the control tracks of the music for "The Gnomes of New Hope; Zach and Zebby's Grand Adventure".  I'm also looking at DMX to sync with staging controls and other protocols that are connected to 3D CGI.

    These are the directions we need to go into and we will need personnel who are familiar with this kind of knowledge.

   Above and beyond the hands-on personnel we are going to build the management team for this as well. That means, by and large, more than one Board of Directors.

   My approach is to encourage these arenas to grow in a natural flow as we complete our tasks in other arenas, but it is important and indeed, essential, that a larger organization begin to grow out of the foundation that has been established. That larger organization is already defined in the Business Plan. But, of course, will need to be refined as we progress.

  Truth be told, I have maybe ten to fifteen years left in me, so we need to shake a leg on this.
