the best part of building an online encyclopedia for multimedia and educational games is acquiring the physical media. after 10+ years of hunting, finally received an affordable copy of Oceans - arguably one of the best educational multimedia experiences MS’s edutainment division produced.

it came with some adorable stickers that have the best utopian scholastic styling and i can’t wait to scan it all in for the https://cd-rom.ca encartapedia!

During my nap I had a dream that an old shop I used to work for had re-opened in an attempt to ride the nostalgia wave.

It used to be called The Natural World, and it was probably the best place I ever worked. Selling crystals, telescopes, science kits, dinosaur toys. Oak colour shelving, World music playing in the background.

In the dream we were still filling the shelves, but using CRT wide screen TV's as space fillers.

Stumbled my way into the Utopian Scholastic aesthetic which is the sights and sounds of just about every encyclopedia CD-ROM, science store in the mall, and 30% of the books from your school book fair in 1995.
