The future of Cinema Under the Stars

The operation of Cinema Under the Stars is contingent upon the success of a new method of operation. The old model was not sufficiently successful to continue the program. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor please visit the site for discussions.

*** The Next Film ***

*** Last film shown ***

October 16th, 2011 "Captain Blood" with Errol Flynn

Attendance last season was very poor, so much so, that I will no longer be presenting films, unless they are paid for in advance by sponsors who provide not only the funds, but also assistance with set-up and strike. So if anyone wishes to see these films continue, you need to step up to the plate to help make it happen.

Re-scheduling Notes:

Sadly, the debut performance of The Bucks County Gilbert & Sullivan Society with a showing of the film "Topsy Turvy" along with The Autumn Leaves Performance Festival was rained out again this year. But we are working on a new presentation for the spring, possibly in a Bucks County winery.

"American Graffiti" got rained out last year and so we will show it again this summer. June 9th is my birthday so we will have a big party. But also we are discussing having this film be part of a fund raising effort to help kids. Keep watch for details.

The Meadow Amphitheatre

A tour of The Meadow Amphitheatre has been moved to it's own site. It is still under construction but is available for you to review.

We need to rebuild the stage and the field for this facility to remain an asset to the community.

We expect to rebuild the stage out of stone and regrade the field to improve drainage.

If you would like to be involved, please stop by the Park Office and let them know.

Please refer to The Shakespearean Journal for the commentary & discussion regarding efforts to rebuild the stage.

Introduction

Welcome to the new site for the
IMS Virtual Studio

Please refer to the Index of Subjects and the Blog Archive file folders for the subject of your interest. I have only recently discovered the function of labels and I have labeled some of the postings, which you will find to the left as well under Blog Subject Labels.

These items are all located in the column to the left. If you click on the title Image of the Mind it will take you to the front page which contains the most recent postings or the subject of primary interest, depending on whether or not I choose to change the posting date.

Various pages, including this one, are updated periodically, but are not posted according to the date and will need to be located by way of either a link I send you, or one in my email signature, or in the headings listed above. I believe the search function will also assist in locating a particular subject or posting.

Some time ago, good portion of the IMS web pages were on AOL Hometown, which has been shut down. This site is now serving as the new hub for the IMS Virtual Studio. I will be adding new material, restructuring this site and including better links within the blog on a regular basis.

You will note that I am working to build indexes for various projects or operations discussed here. Gradually the subjects will be addressed and the links will be installed. If an area has not been discussed and you would like to do so, please send me an email.

As the primary posting location on the web, I have chosen to use this blog essentially as a newsletter. I've chosen not to invite comments on this blog, because I am using it as a forum to provide information and not discussion. If you need to discuss an item I am happy to do so in a private conversation, which may in fact spur a posting herein if it is appropriate.

You will find that some of the dialogue is rather lengthy and tiresome to read in one sitting. I tend to be rather verbose, but this is unavoidable, since the information provided is two-fold. These postings are intended to clarify & refine production development and implementation, while providing a comprehensive overview of the essential facts in both a general sense and, in some instances, a quite specific way for both the projects and the operation of IMS.

It is my intention to review and edit the material as production moves forward, but also to create an archive of a projects progression. So even though the material will change over time, I hope to also maintain an archive as a log book. My objective is to educate the people who may someday associate themselves with one or more of the IMS Projects that are here presented.

For those of you who are in a position to review the proposals and make decisions regarding involvement at the various levels, I provide this information for the purpose of supporting the projects we are discussing. By being specific of the facts I am striving to provide you with an overview of Image of the Mind Studios, my background and other projects that are part of the IMS repertoire.

I will include links for partners in our projects only on request or if it is appropriately relative to what we are doing.

I do invite your comments & discussion, but I ask that you do so via e-mail, so that we can have private conversations. Please be specific in your Subject heading or the email may be discarded without being read.

I do attempt to keep this site somewhat up to date, but as you can see from the volume of postings and the inferences within that this is no small task . I do have to sleep and eat, occasionally.

So I hope you enjoy reading the information I have posted here and, even more, I hope you may like to become involved in one or more of our projects. Because after all, as you will see, everything seems to be a humongous task requiring a lot of people and significant resources to succeed.

And in case you wonder about the magnitude & practicality of some of the projects posted here, remember that

I am a Conceptual Artist and my medium is the canvas of the Mind. AG
