Spaceship Earth Mornings

My Fellow Futurists,
You wouldn’t know it by the amount of posts I’ve been giving lately, but things are very busy here at E82. I’ve got more projects than I know what to do with! I’d love to tell you all about them, but in the telling I would both spoil the surprise, as well as take time away from the project themselves, so excuse me for not being as chatty as I normally would be. I will say that there have been some recent developments that have prompted me to take The Project to an entirely new venue. I can’t reveal too much at this time, but I will say that it’s become a sort of “Project X” for E82 (yep it’s that big!) Actually, I have TWO such projects in the pipeline one is mostly Artistic, and the other “Architectural” in nature.
So to continue my proverbial game of intellectual-leap-frog, here‘s yet ANOTHER “by request” while I work on some (hopefully) unexpected material for next week.

"Notes" on the Future

With a mere five days from the launch of the Future World Soundtrack Series, the E82 Project is proud to release its 2nd Desktop Wallpaper. This monochromatic desktop, primarily features the FWSS "Future Notes" Logo. With beams of light emanating from its base, Spaceship Earth is surrounded by a TEXTure of 15 songs and score pieces that represent the history of Epcot music, from "We've Just begun to Dream" to "Celebrate the Future Hand in Hand."If you look at the Copyright you'll notice that this collection and, in fact, all of E82 has been slowing evolving over a period of several years.

 

Spaceship Earthrise

This is the first of many desktop backgrounds coming to you from the E82. Spaceship Earth Dawn is based on the original cover for the EPCOT Center Pre-Opening Guide . In this, I wanted to capture the spirit of the original photography with the technology available today.
