Here is a list of Oracle Class orbs I have finished, ready for the weekend convention & workshop — don’t forget that this is how you can get your Prosperity Path Coach Certification!!! Everyone who attends will be a certified coach on Monday; we’ll have a cert ceremony at that time, and your certificate will be ready and shown on camera whether you’re attending in person or online!!!
Nobody but me knows it yet, but now they do and you know it too; my plan for the weekend is to develop the coaching classes and narrow down the learning field to a few important points that are easy to master and use. We’ll develop the basic coaching class so others who follow will have this legacy which you helped to create.
If you have a laptop, of course bring it; computers are limited here, and everyone will have an opportunity to run each of the new orb class types, but we will have to take turns. If anyone has a spare stash of cash or saleables taking up room somewhere in an old musty deposit box, hey, what a great time to make a gift that we can use to bolster up our few training computers. Frankly, we weren’t prepared for the rush.
So in between the actual live-coached orb runs you’ll be doing either online at home or here in person, we’ll be working on various garden projects, kitchen projects, chocolates, desserts and specialty herbal gardening; we’ll also explore the world of bonsai and succulents; not all succulents are cacti, but we’ll be finding out about how to raise and propagate and use them in feng-shui applications, too.
Another area we will explore is that of the Medicine Wheel, Darshan and other methods of drawing down spiritual help for healing.
We will have a guided tour — I’ll be your docent here — of Gorby’s Trading Post, where you can find all the items you’ll need to enhance the effects of your Orb work.
Running Orbs every single day will make you feel a million dollars better! When you feel good, things go good.
Okay, so here’s the partial list of What’s Ready Now. I’ll start with the PRO Orbs first:
BardoTown — This is a totally reworked Vintage Orb, one I made back in 1987 on the Amiga platform. It has been reworked many times, but this is the first time it has had rolling fog, moving clouds, smoke, steam and dynamic lighting to make it really pop. In addition, I’ve used some wonderful music that Jimmi Accardi & I had a lot of fun creating in the recording studio; it’s been remixed and remastered by Oz Fritz, and is totally stunning in combination with the lighting effects and sheer enormity of the single-level environment. I’m your run-alongside guide, and I’ll be giving you hints and snarling at you from time to time when you do something really stupid.
WharfTown — Vintage is the word for this Orb; it’s one of the very first I made. Thing is, it’s so far from the original, which was bound by early engine limitations that we no longer have, that it’s unrecognizable or nearly so. It is enormous, being one of the largest single levels ever produced. The GODD engine can handle it, believe me; the move & react speeds are like lightning, even with a rich, detail-drenched Orb like this. You get me as a guide, running alongside you, hassling you about every little screw-up. Both BardoTown and WharfTown began as 35mm pinhole camera photographs, the best I could do at the time to plan what I’d build when 3-D engines were available.
You’ll note that I predicted the videogame back in 1971, but heck-darn, I knew they were coming as far back as 1945; I’ve told the story elsewhere. I built BardoTown in HO Scale miniature railroading layout, which ended up at 55′ long. This layout was eventually translated into the GODD engine, the result of which are the two listings above. Here are some photos from the CD release, “BardoTown”, available at Gorby’s Trading Post:
Gypsy Lane in BardoTown. Over 2500 figures and 1200 buildings were made & weathered. This street can be found in the western section of BardoTown. To the right is the “Gemini”.
A sinister BardoTown street you’ll soon learn to recognize; frought with danger, but you will navigate the space with peace, using Prosperity Path!
Tony’s Bar & Grill is right next door to Mango McPherson’s Phuneral Parlour.
I’ll continue the list on the next blog…right now, it’s breakfast time, and those who have been here know the cook doesn’t like to put stuff in the oven for latecomers, although in my home, no one goes hungry.
See You At The Top!!!
