Hi Graham,
I congratulate you on your ambition to do this! It seems that the days are long
gone when people will pay attention to a content product because it is just
that. All the attention (i.e. funding) has moved on to scalable platforms
rather than individual works of artifice!
Yes, when w
Thanks Peter
It’s encouraging to know about the re-configuring. When I first thought of my
project, some years ago, I could not get any sensible response out of the
original publisher, and eventually gave up, but now I am thinking of reviving
the idea. I think sadly the copyright holder of the
Hi Graham,
It might be easier to track down the copyright holder of the CD-ROM and offer
to re-publish on a different platform. Copyrights on the design of the
program/disc itself will definitely apply for a long time.
We are re-configuring some of our earlier work HC into LiveCode as desktop
That’s excellent information - I would still have to tackle any missed out
(obviously I haven’t checked yet) and presumably all the recordings of the poet
speaking which are much more recent than the composition dates (though I don’t
understand US copyright laws). And there’s Richard Wilbur’s es
I code among giants!

Bah, I can only claim #17. Raw C (not even C++) on the CD-ROM, but vast
amounts of HyperCard used in the production process.
Mind you, if Cosmic Osmo only got #29, I consider their rankings very suspect!

I liked those music CD-ROMs! There was an excellent one of a late Beethoven
string quartet. I forget which one. Since this year is Beethoven’s 250th
birthday, perhaps it’s time to think of another way of presenting this
material! I’ve already been to several performances of these wonderful piece
Colin was a monster programmer at Voyager!
I myself worked on the Voyager music titles #9, 21, 37, 38, 39, producing the
first two, the Stravinsky and Mozart programs, and I’m still working with
Robert Winter, the author, after 30 years. All HyperCard with custom Xcommands

Thanks for that. Voyager did well in the list, 15 out of the 50. 10 of which
were in HyperCard. #1 I programmed on my own, and I also did some work on #4
and #15.

I beat the first Myst, and I almost beat the second one, except for the last
puzzle. The solution was you had to be standing in certain places along certain
paths which had nothing to interact with, and looking in certain directions
that were not natural to look, and then you could see a very su

[Deep sigh] I spent *many* years in MacUser magazine – the original
and best UK one of course, not the Ziff-Davis copy. ;

In 1993 Mac User magazine had a review of the top 50 CD-ROMs, and of those
there was an overall winner. The A Hard Day’s Night CD-ROM I made in HyperCard
was the overall winner. I was lucky that it was before Myst was released. It
would have easily won!
Ah yes, of course. I see that now.
