Jim Clark Abramelin Wolfe, Second Life, Motion Capture

In this episode, I speak to Jim Clark about his work in motion capture for computer games. Jim has worked for a number of years at the forefront of gaming and as this is a world that I know very little about and I found it absolutely fascinating with the creative processes used.
Motion capture artist Jim Clark who also goes under the name of Abramelin Wolfe monetizes his creativity by humanizing our virtual lives -- one fluid movement at a time. He puts his dream of an immersive future succinctly: "We want a universe that we can step into!"
Jim talks about his involvement in the online gaming of Second Life.

"But the virtual world is more about fun than it is about commerce Second Life is about other people's creativity. Some of it is beautiful. Some of it is just strange...but all of it is amazing! It is like looking into their minds."

The Registry of Guitar Tutors (RGT) The End of an Era

In this episode I am talking to Max Milligan, Dave Jones, and Barry Kitchen who have all been guitar examiners for the RGT over the last 30 years and we discuss how positive it had been in the role of guitar education in that time, and it's decline after being taken over by LCME exams.

This is a great discussion with some very highly respected examiners and guitarists as they tell their own stories about their involvement over the years.

Emma Fairthorne Anathema - Dedicated Witchcraft Emporium

Set in a beautiful Victorian arcade in Boscombe near Bournemouth Emma has created a fabulous little shop and runs regular markets and talks

Normally these quirky little shops do not have much in the way of footfall unless they are in London. Anathema is an exception to this and is a little hub that draws lots of interest in the area.

We talk about her journey and it is one of taking life experiences and moulding them.

Having the ability to be open to some very unusual opportunities such as glass blowing, screen printing and the unusual meetings with people who become teachers.

Great chat.
