In the year 2010 the “Coal to Oil” (C2O) idea of Oliver Sullivan shall be brought to life by means of a computer screen and audio system. Rather than constructing a coal gasification plant, I will begin telling the C2O story somewhere among the myriad bio-mass and coal feeder systems, within the coal gasification process itself, or among the myriad local community enterprises utilizing every bit of material produced by the C2O Industry

I will be learning Flash and using the C2O animation of gas flowing in time over a temperature gradient and a gravity field. That will be the backdrop for some small slice of the overall process worth visualizing in an animation sequence…my first demonstration slice.

Perhaps I’ll begin in a animation perspective of coal gasification beginning with the Periodic Table of Elements? Perhaps I’ll begin in the ancient peat bogs where the lignite coal began to form.

I can see the overall idea in my mind’s eye. There’s a great distance to go, from where I am to where I must go to attain competency in the Adobe CS 4 product suite.
