Phosphor Dot Fossils DVDSeveral years in the planning and taking over a month of intensive editing, Phosphor Dot Fossils is a three-hour DVD documentary based upon the web site of the same name, which I’ve been writing and adding new material to since 1995. Tracing the history of video games from their inception as a mass-market item in the early 1970s, through the rise and fall of their mass-acceptance in the pre-Nintendo 1980s, Phosphor Dot Fossils features game footage, rare (and in many cases, extensively restored) commercials, and photos and mini-essays (in its unique everything-on-the-screen “video book” format) of extremely rare prototype games and hardware. I wrote every word, edited every second, composed every note of music, Order the Phosphor Dot Fossils DVDand embarked on an extensive DVD authoring project to create the disc’s extremely concise menu system. To date, despite this being a self-published project aimed at a small niche audience, over 200 copies have sold, with more orders always being taken. A follow-up, Phosphor Dot Fossils Level 2, is in the planning stages for early 2009, and I’m brainstorming possible further projects using a similar format. Phosphor Dot Fossils debuted at the OEGE live event sponsored by Oklahoma City Community College in April 2008.
