As production officially begins next week...

...additional considerations are needed.

While at once I was ready to get a full set of scans of the pieces, right now I'm holding off.
   a) There must be relevant digital images of all the materials somewhere, it just must be found. Perhaps only one or two are needed to update.
   b) From there most of the images can be tiled and worked on for the Proto 1 Phase.

I meet with the engineer July 2  to work out a logical path for an October prototype exhibition at NYCCT
   a) Perhaps the unit from SMV with new chips might suffice for the time being.
   b) Where to find these chips? And, SMV has seven pieces; SIS has nine.
   c) The unit is nowhere as important as what's going on them and how I'm going to do that.

I have heard back from a few places, with flat results, and the one place I'm waiting on hasn't gotten back.
   a) I'm placing a lot of weight on a fund raising campaign, to be launched in September.
   b) Still worried about a lack of work space.

Yet, I emailed the designer to begin thinking about identity materials. Must keep this thing moving, staying optimistic.

And then, the birds!                                   

Clapper rail, whose song is on the soundtrack.
