Onadime is an integrated software toolkit and publishing system for entertainment, education, art and science. Metacosm Design Labs is instrumental in the ongoing development of the system architecture, application and website user interface design.
Phillip Reay is one of the founders of Onadime, Inc., and co-author of two patents for the project, one for World-Sail, a peer-to-peer "dandelion" file distribution e-commerce sales system, and the other for OVALL, the real-time visual dataflow programming technology. He also is a creative artist in the medium, developing stage visuals for rock bands (Rolling Stones) and also live-action digital puppets (Bugs Bunny and Bloo) that interact like any other person on a live stage.
Onadime responds to live motion, sound, digital instruments, and other sensors according to choreography made by an artist/composer. It generates interactive real-time animation and video, audio, and other machine controls according to a visual diagram of live dataflows. By making resources easier to interconnect into complex systems, Onadime accelerates creativity, exploration, and "time-to-market". The technology also provides a digital rights managment (DRM) publishing system allowing peer-to-peer sharing and sale of the interactive music and video composition files.
Onadime is also a member in a four-company alliance. Together with PerformFX, Overdrive, and Technology Playgroup, Onadime offers a complete and versatile technology chain capable of meeting the highest production standard in all fields of 3D and 2D character animation.
The project is currently under a rewrite. Stay tuned for major developments.
