Four days ago, an old friend of mine, Jeffrey Rassas, showed me some office space he had available almost exactly across the street from where he and I had worked together nearly 15 years earlier. It’s only been about two weeks since he and I started discussing a business opportunity that would see him getting seriously involved with my new project – building a Virtual Reality environment.

Within hours of seeing the space, I grabbed two guys who were the most likely to join me in building a virtual world: redacted (center) and Brinn Aaron (left); that’s me, John Wise, on the right. We got together and took a drive to Ikea to order the pieces we’d need for our desks, and then we headed over to my place to order the computers. The desks arrived on the 24th, and the computer parts on the 25th. Now, here on April 26th, we are ready to start work. Timefire LLC is born.
