Hello, one and all!
This is to let you all know that, in the spirit in which the IrishSpace
Project was built, we are providing a ZIP file of a fully operational,
complete version of "The Voyage of the Jeanie Johnston II: Outward from
Earth" for download to run locally on your hard drive.
It has always been the feeling of the sponsor of the project (John
Griffin of the Kerry County Museum in Tralee) that this should be
available for children (and adults) worldwide.
The ZIP file is located at:
http://ovrt.nist.gov/voyage/voyage.zip
Please keep in mind that the production's copyright is held by the Kerry
County Museum, and that individual rights are retained by the artists who
created the individual elements.
The version in the ZIP is the same version (with Emblaze Audio files, and
tweaked specifically for CosmoPlayer 2.1) which plays on the NIST server
at:

----------------------------------------
In further news about IrishSpace, there is now a version tweaked for
blaxxun Contact installed in the Cybertown Suburbs. This version can be
perused in a less linear fashion, as all the nodes are available
separately from displays in the central hall on the moon. If you like
non-linear storytelling, this version jumps you into it
in medias res, and of course also
provides a multi-user gathering place to meet and talk about it. This
installation has been planned as part of Cybertown's day at Avatars99
this Saturday, Oct. 30.
Thanks, and
Keep on WRLing,
- Paul
