3D Tarot Readings??? Check it out!!!

Sure, 3D Tarot Readings, why not? Now that I have this swell new engine, I can lay out a full-scale Fourth Way Tarot Reading, based on a 4-centrum deck with 22 Major Arcana. Here’s the way it works: The Reader asks you ten questions. You answer, aloud, in your in-game voice, actually that of your character in-game. This goes to log, along with the question that provoked your answer. Now the coach gives you a response and then goes on to the next question, until all ten have been asked and answered. The coach will not allow you to fudge and not answer. You can spend an awful lot of time there if you’re stubborn. So, then, the next thing that happens is that you get a Tarot Reading, compounded from a deck of electronic thingy stuff, which compares well to my favorite deck, my friend Frankie Albano’s restoration of the so-called Waite deck, actually by Pamela Coleman Smith. I still have the original deck he gave me back when we were at L.A.C.C. in the early ’60s. Anyhow, you’ll find me integrated as your guide and coach in most of the levels from now on.

Why Are All the Orbs the Same???

Why are all the Orbs the same, you ask?

They aren’t. There are subtle differences, and sometimes quite radical variations, between each and every Orb. No two are exactly alike, and therein you can see the seed of your Deliverance. The biggest problem with telling parallel worlds apart is that they are so darn similar that they’re, well … downright parallel.

What’s the Holdup???

What’s the holdup, you ask? Here’s the answer:

I’m working on something that’s so huge a breakthrough in interactive gaming that it makes any game out there downright neolithic. We’ve got an amazing, absolutely astounding ai guy at our helm in the game engine department. His specialty always has been in the intelligence area, meaning a computer that can outsmart a human — in my book, never a tough task, but evidently on this particular brand of Earth, there’s an issue.

Come Fly With Me

Come Fly With Me! I’ll be your Personal Astral Flight Training Coach all along the way. We’ll first practice getting out of the organic body and into the Body of Flight; we’ll also train ourselves to properly prepare ourselves for the oobe experience and arming ourselves with a reasonable level of protection before venturing Out There without an organic body to keep us warm and to give us the illusion of feeling generally somewhat safe. Out There, it’s very different, so you’ll need an Ammy, an ABD, a Matrix, a SuperBeacon and of course, your trusty wand and wizard’s hat. Then, we’re off into the Wild Blue Yonder with my latest Personal Training creation. Destination? UNKNOWN. Each Astral Orb has its very own fascinating blend of reality and illusion. Release date: You’ll find it in the produce section of your local grocery store or on the urthgame downloads page when the Release Version has been fully tested & rigged for install.

My Secret

Haven’t you ever wished you had a loyal, totally trustworthy friend to whom you could tell your deepest innermost secrets in complete safety. Well, now you have one, and she’s in My Secret, my newest totally interactive intelligence creation in my latest Rewards Orbs. It’s in testing now and will be ready as soon as our Beta Testers tell us that it’s Ready for Prime Time. In “My Secret”, you’ll be able to share thoughts and emotions as never before. You can decide to save or not save your log file. It automatically overwrites the previous file when you go back into the Orb, unless you specify that you want to save it. You can annotate the log later if you like. Oh, yes — as you type in your responses, you’ll note that you speak the words aloud, in-game. A new feature from VAL. This has undergone some interesting changes on the way to getting posted on the DOWNLOADS page. It’ll be there very soon now!!! There are a total of 14 new levels ready for testing at the moment.

Stop da Presses!!!

In newspaper parlance, “Stop da Presses!!!” means that the reporter is running to his or her desk with a “scooop” —  a news story that no other newspaper has got hold of yet. Well, that’s what this is. I’ll leave it to your imagination; dark, dank, cool subway tunnels with Old Gorby at your side, giving you kind, helpful instructions, such as “Watch it, meathead!” and “Is typing on a keyboard Kryptonite to your species???” and “Move it, Maggot, I haven’t got all darn day!!!”. Gives ya the willies to hear them drill sergeant commands, eh? “Gimme ten on the floor, mister!” There’s much more to this story…

The University is to Learning what Wikipedia is to Knowledge

People have, over the decades, inquired of me why it is that, although I attended college and art school, I have never made use of my credentials. It’s the same with my creds as a midwife, birthing instructor, chief admin at Center for Conscious Birthing in Los Angeles in 1974, and at Cowichan Centre for Gestalt Learning through the early 1970s, plus many teaching jobs at schools and colleges throughout the California Southland. I taught Old English, Middle English (I can read, write and speak both) and of course, painting, sculpture, drawing and more.

Gosh, I can’t remember a time when anybody actually asked me for my credentials. Continue reading
