let's say that you're working on a major motion picture... what better way to follow up something like convergence than with a video game or series of games based on the movie(s)? i'm sure you've seen the stats on how video games are outpacing movies in many categories these days. a lot of people will see the movie and be intrigued until the next big attention diverter comes along. however, if you can get them to buy a game that they can play at home/online with their friends, then you've got multiple repeat impressions of the loo concepts.
"convergence: legend of the divine cosmos" - on ps3, xbox360, wii, and pc-dvd. not bad, huh?
i thought it would be cool to have a children's cartoon of a young sage-like girl who basically just went around and always had a really spiritual parable or teaching as she encountered each situation (perhaps all ranging from the 22 archetypes of human experiences?). the situations could range from the mundane to the profound. she would be like a zen taoist of sorts, or sort of like a christ child, and her small friends could ask really meaningful yet simple questions about the world, and hopefully adults who watch it would actually learn something for once concerning the innocence of a child and see the brilliance in being that way, like a child.
if it was a video game, i would totally buy a game where i was this enlightened race of star travelers, who not only seeded planets but also were involved with upgrading people with superior dna, psychic abilities, the whole works. throughout the game, there would be all these cool moral lessons as it relates to why you would want to do something good, and if the player tried to do something bad just for amusement, it would affect them in catastrophic ways dealing with their own health, abilities, etc.
obviously, this is all just a cool pipe dream of mine but i think it would still be awesome if there was something like this out there to engage with.
As water rests towards the lowest filtered substratum... so does my consciousness filter towards the highest layers of various densities of mind ether...
