Due to the popularity of the science luminary portraits by Angela Bermúdez, we created a new tier that raises the bar from that! You can now custom commission Angela for any science-themed painting you want, and on a bigger canvas! The video gives you a sample :)
Amazingly, before even posting here, several of those are already gone!
<cue infomercial music> BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!!
We've also added several more of the composer demo review sessions! I know this is specific to the composers amongst us, but I am happy to say we have 3 fully open slots left:
1) Wil Roget (amazing composer for CALL OF DUTY, STAR WARS THE OLD REPUBLIC and many others)
2) Christopher Lennertz (King of comedies like HORRIBLE BOSSES 1-2, SAUSAGE PARTY, etc but also several games like multiple MEDAL OF HONOR titles)
3) Bear McCreary (reigning TV champion with scores like BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, AGENTS OF SHIELD, THE WALKING DEAD and countless others)
AND, lastly, artist Mia O. Savage also added a new tier of custom Illuminated manuscripts, and there's only 1 left of those too! Submit your favorite science quotes / scientists etc and she'll create a large sheet in the medieval manuscript style.
Basically .... LOTS of nerdy and exciting science/music rewards. We're almost 80% funded and 2 weeks to go. Help us reach the finish line!!
FINALLY, tonight Tony and I will be appearing on a live podcast with Fraser Cain called the "Weekly Space Hangout" to talk about the show. Feel free to tune in. I will set up a solo stream shortly as well to answer questions and tell silly stories :)

OMG YOU GUYS!!! WE HIT $50,000!!!
First off, THANK YOU for supporting our campaign. We cannot do any of this without you! We have just hit a MAJOR MILESTONE because of your incredible support!
So, let's take a moment to think about why we're all here...
Science, music, art, and storytelling, has filled our lives with profound meaning and we want to share that feeling with the world.

He's spent over 10 years working directly with with the world's leading scientists (including many Nobel Prize winners) and is eager to share everything he's learned with you.
