I finally heard back from the CreativeIT program yesterday and the Enzymind proposal has been declined. Phew. That would have been a lot of work. Now I have to figure out something else to do (for income). For the time being it will be primarily music but I hope to segue into more writing. Maybe some short stories, armchair philosophy or even a novel. Writing the proposals, at the very least, was good writing practice. I also learned a lot about the theory and mechanics of the creative process which will be useful for future endeavors.
The three proposal reviews were two 'fair's and a 'very good'. Some issues were the lack of academic or industry connections and no significant established user base. Got some good feedback and it was nice to be praised on the thoroughness of the literature review, which was a criticism on the first proposal. They seemed to be piqued by the fractal model of idea organization in the creative process, but wanted more experiments to test the model, and most seem to think the tools would generally be useful. I will email the full review to folks who would like the details psr5000@gmail.com.

Proposal review
I'd like to have a copy of that -- dow@uoregon.edu.
I'm in favor of posting the full review on Enzymind. I like the idea of public posting, there's nothing there that I'm going to be embarrased about. I recently needed an updated CV, and it was most easy to find in the proposal. I am a bit embarrased to have needed a CV again!
