New Projections

An amazing story of a promising architecture student who loses everything as war sweeps across his country, and restarts life in America, just as a new tech region of Silicon Valley begins to grow

Out of the dynamic growth of Silicon Valley came a new field of Biotech that would begin to outpace its technical field of origin. Even as people speak of the end of Moore's law and the slowing of tech development, it seems biotech just grows and innovates more quickly.   Today's guest, Terry Guyer, was not only first hand for the growth of these industries, but met and painted portraits of many of the titans of technology, medicine and biology. From the aforementioned Gordon Moore, to Steve Wozniak, or Ray Kurzweil, Terry Guyer has spent time with them all. Most of all, Guyer was the maker of a series of maps that showed the growing Biotech industry from California to the East Coast and up to Canada.

From a lifetime of practical experience in community work, wrestling with the structures that form and direct peoples, Frank Romo (https://www.romogis.com/)has had an expanding perspective on the human experience. In this conversation we get to discuss his landmark, interactive "Black Lives Matter Map" (https://blm-map.com/), as well as his background and works such as the "Murals In Detroit" ( https://muralsindetroit.com/)

A young employee at the Harris Seybold printing company always loved those framed paintings of classic books. They hung in the offices, those original paintings, and were mostly done by artist and illustrator Everett Henry. They were extraordinary in their visual ability to represent the geography, plot and drama of a story in a single visual. Everett Henry literally could convert a book into a type of map.

This young employee, Rich Foley, spent years at the company, and as the business changed ownership, he always kept tabs on what happened to those painting. He always made sure new management knew their story and that they were important... and should end up in a good home. Even in retirement he never let go, but made sure that eventually they made it home, to the Library of Congress.

"They now belong to the American people".
