+ <h2>Qualia Computing</h2>
|
|
|
+ <p>On the 13<sup>th</sup> of May 2020, I woke up to find an emailfrom <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-rayner-2251903a/?originalSubdomain=uk">Nicholas Rayner</a> about this project of his, Qualia Computing.</p>
|
|
|
+ <p>I was copied with a Professor I had collaborated with in the past, and the text referenced subjects of our past collaboration, so I assumed this was a student asking for a final year project for their undergraduate degree.</p>
|
|
|
+ <blockquote>I am Nicholas Rayner, i'm a former Ravenbourne College Interaction Design student.
|
|
|
+ I finished the course in 2002 and since have been designing a integrated operating system
|
|
|
+ called Qualia. Having recently moved to Manchester i have enrolled on a course in Innovation
|
|
|
+ to further progress the design of the operating system. I am also looking for people to code the
|
|
|
+ system for production. The idea is to design a website with the skeleton for the system;
|
|
|
+ then have people fill it in remotely. I would be co-ordinating this via a website. You would
|
|
|
+ be coding specific parts of the system to work together. First the build for PC then Mac,
|
|
|
+ Linux, maybe others too.
|
|
|
+ <br />
|
|
|
+ For code and web applications Qualia would follow the W3, i am trying to get them interested
|
|
|
+ as well as the Turing Insitiute; further universities Britian wide, including Cambridge, Oxford,
|
|
|
+ Bristol, Manchester,Birmingham, Edinburgh and London.
|
|
|
+ </blockquote>
|
|
|
+ <p>I am not knowledgeable enough to know that Ravensbourne College
|
|
|
+ is not part of the University of Cambridge so I just few past
|
|
|
+ that reference, but the start of the second paragraph was
|
|
|
+ when I began thinking it wasn't my morning slumber preventing
|
|
|
+ me from making sense of the email: it was in fact the email that
|
|
|
+ wasn't making any sense at all.</p>

|
|
|
+ <p>I send the message around to some friends as an amusement and then forgot about it. Until the 29th of May 2020.</p>
|
|
|
+ <p>Nicholas, prophet of God, is back.</p>
