The Alchemy of Imagination 0

I gave it much thought and it seems I would benefit from this branching. We all would, hopefully. I'm not as powerful and strong to continue big projects at a snap of a whip, I gotta try and step-by-step it. It's too often that I need to go back to basics. Why not give it more love. I'll probably call it TAI (it's not entirely correct but sounds nice )

And first of all, yes, it's a big nod to the great classic Myst/Riven. And it's for a reason.

It takes me back to the days of childhood when I got familiar with these games. I wasn't obsessed with these but I love them and they left a serious imprint in my heart.

The character Atrus... The Creator. He is a very inspiring idol. A praise to intelligence, imagination and wisdom. A source, a process and a preservation. No matter the area, these are the basics of any art.

Back then I got the seed of creation in me. I was just doodling in MS Paint of Win 3.1 and 98. I was dreaming of creating my own games. Where you could look around, see all the details, move. Where all the world would be created with everything that I know. It didn't go too far and I just had to pick a more narrow path in my life. Can't sit on 12 chairs at once, right?

So programming remains in my dreams. Maybe in the next life. I'd love to do that and I could but... time, time is everything. Not hard to do, hard to choose. Although I was good at programming, as little as I did. Solving mathematical and logical problems to make things work my way was so much fun. Early Java Script and then Flash/Action Script. Childish, I know.

Anyway, I won't describe that project here, I'll do it as I add pages to it. How would I put it in general?... It's a bit of backstage. The cogs and separate details of imagination. Ingredients that make the final product. What I once dreamed I would be able to do... and now, put the flaws and never-ending growth aside, I'm actually able to.

"Some may call this junk. Me, I call them treasures"

I hope this side project would inspire someone. It will probably have no end, it's just on the same path as everything else that I draw. We'll see. I'm curious myself.
