Brief history & intro


Welp, Dan is obviously the common thread in the tapestry of this group. I
met Dan in the Pixar interactive group but he didn't didn't really bare his
soul till I hooked up with him and Catherine on the American river to do
some whitewater paddling. Well those of you that know Dan & whitewater also
know this is a religious event. Well afterwards there was drinking and
hugging and ....and......passion exploded......we talked about interactive
storytelling.

After I left Pixar I started a software consulting company (Coyote Grits)
with Steve to pay the bills while I figure out how to make Idrama happen.
What seems like the logical course is to develop games and start
incorporating idrama technology into them. The project "Cytherial's Tale"
was born and continues to be developed. Most of my financial focus is on a
ecommerce project that will make me millions (Well I hope).

After I make my millions I plan to run off to Oregon or Montana and work out
this technology and just occasionally fly to the bay area. Gotta have goals.
Why does Montana draw all the bizzare people to it?

So while my goals for idrama are not altruistic, it is my passion and I do
believe this new medium has the same potential for change as it's
predecessors (camp fires, books, radio, film, televison).
