Hi there, I'm new in the forums and I'm searching for anyone with some programming skills to help me remake Leary's Mindmirror. For those who don't know what Mindmirror is here's a brief description: "Mind Mirror allows the performer to digitize (scope) any thought, compare it with other thoughts and compare thoughts with others, and to engage in simulation of various roles."
I recommend everyone to try it, you can download it here (http://www.myabandonware.com/game/timothy-learys-mind-mirror-67)

It's better to familiarize with Leary's 8-circuit model of consciousness first. Here's a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9oabRxvjf9k) of Leary talking about mind mirror.
Okey, what I'm planning to do with the game is to modernize the whole interface and make it more "user friendly". The game is based in plain text but it could have lots of images and links to explain certain concepts or ideas. Then it would be nice to expand the possibilities of the game by making more game modes available and by relating Leary's ideas to RAW's, Antero Alli's, the enneagram, and others. That are the basic ideas I've got. I have got few programming skills in Pascal, C++, Python and java, and would really need some help with the graphic interface.
If anyone's willing to help, that would be welcome.
Sorry for my cavemen-english.
This seems like a relatively interesting idea.
I will check this out later.
Posting so that I can watch the video later (& check out the executable).
I have modern engine experience (Unreal3/UDK)..... a new "game" based around the 8 Circuit model sounds interesting and I've never run into mention of Leary working on one.

if you related this to Alli's stuff, I might be interested.

My intention is to relate it to Alli's Angel's Tech, mainly.

That's what I meant.
I think I like this noob.
There is an official remake of Mind Mirror in the works -- or was, last I heard (a couple years ago). Here is the website (it has an annoying autostarting video with sound, so keep that in mind before clicking) (http://www.mindmirror.com/).
