I am an entrepreneur. An artist. A de-constructor. Innovator. Problem solver. Perceiver of the esoteric. Sense maker of randomness, seer of possibilities and potential where others whose brains, wired differently do not. That's a category of about 25% of the population, or so I am told. My own estimate would be less than 10%.
-- IT'S A PERSON'S PSYCHOLOGY THAT LIMITS PERCEPTION AND UNDERSTANDING
A new, transcendent social media platform is my what I am working on now.
THIS IS THE NEXT BIG SOCIAL MEDIA THING!
Past:
If you read or blogged on Current.com in 2006 - 2008, you'd know me as VoyagerFilms.
In 2K I started TMP Carbs in Chatsworth, CA to support my R&D habit.
I re-engineered Holley's racing carburetors as were used in Winston Cup and still used on most American V-8 hi-perf / race engines integrating Weber Power Plates - I acquired the entire inventory. My R&D took me from my dad's small carb business in PG, CA directly to Winston Cup. Along the way I taught myself patent writing.
Eventually, I studied filmmaking, editing, acting and produced, filmed, directed and edited several "industrials" for the Spacecraft Research and Design Center's Laser Optics Department's research lab at the Naval Postgraduate School Monterey Bay. I've done background work with the high point of my acting career to date being a non-speaking role in Miley Cyrus' "Can't Be Tamed" video.
Now turning my attention to social media seeing the future to make a substantial contribution to society & humanity. Very exciting undertaking a new direction applying life experience, psychology to social media.
I'm very opened minded and cast my net of theoretical probability much farther and wider than most.
Accomplishments include:
- engineering the very best hi-perf / race carb on the planet - and even though I haven't performed R&D since '98, it's still the cutting edge
- conceived and designed technology to reduce fluid resistance
(All as a result of my self taught, intuitive knowledge and understanding of Fluid Dynamics)
- did a startup and operation of TMP Carbs, authored carb / engine tuning article / manual for hi-perf / race engines, played myself on The X Show, expert for Car Craft carb article, contributor to racing blog, etc.
- as a student of psychology, I have a strong understanding of it's mech
