Wholeo's Virtual Residency migration project,
Manifest Evolution is taking forever to complete. The vision acts happened during three days in mid-2006, from July 9-11. There are notes, sketches, photos, and memories from that time. I quickly published the storyboard. Since then I've been working on the movie of the event for entry to an art show. I know there are many downsides to presenting a work-in-progress. But I feel that each week I bring the record to a state that is worth seeing, so I publish it on wholeo.net.
As a technical writer I would often send out manuals in various stages of completion. I wanted feedback. But it was hard for some people to deal with the rough material. They couldn't imagine the completion. If you are one of those who need smooth finished products, skip all these entries until I'm done.
Mastering new resources takes time too. A new Apple Cinema HD display let's me see lots more stuff on the computer screens, the better to synergize. New wireless Internet connections let me wander around with my iBook, untethered. New
Final Cut Studio software provides tools to make movies, motion, soundtracks, and DVDs, not to mention the seven heavy how-to-do-it books to read. I'm trying new ways to present movies including Adobe Macromedia Flash 8, iPod, and h.264. There are so many choices, all affecting quality. So much to learn, explore, and do leaves no time for polishing or finishing. This is a time of rough cuts.
So if you are in for a Wholeo wilderness trip, follow weekly installations of
