around the MODE Railway model and has been developed and produced on the Internet and for
social networks and New Media by MODE.
The IP is based upon a railway Model and a new Content logistics process called the M.O.D.E.
Railway Model.
1. These tools are under the Service Mark Youpicks and Geopicks (keywords for MODE
search engines and Google tools,Yahoo tools,)

Have sat on 30 + Board Of directors over the past twenty five years on PEI .
founding member for the Adventure Group, Founding members The Food Kitchen, Founding
members CHANCES....The Prince Edward Island Cultural Sector, More ...
I have sat in on many federal government presentations to Parliament and provincial studies.
Presented papers and briefs and policy suggestions and offered direction as a result of heritage
and knowledge economies.
I am also a musician and play several instruments for service groups to raise money and offer
help to the community at time of need.
I paint and have had several exhibitions in Charlottetown.
I believe in creating sustainable project engines that run on Motive Power.
I now spend my time creating and producing social networks and publish this content about The
Prince Edward Island Railway.
I hope this helps introduce me Gordon but as you know I have left out so much of the work on
Energy and Bio fuels that interests me so much with the Grow and Press model 2007.
I have produced The Future Generation Project and content IP using MODE company
development and production resources sense 2004 and still offered my services to Robert Trainor
of the CN pensioners association with an understanding of clear exchange of service and for
future work and production opportunities.
I hope to correct the lack of awareness regarding our work and the CN pensioners and will
continue with MODE IP to develop and produce cultural content.
I continue to offer the MODE SM and IP to collect and project cultural content as set out in my
Business plan developed in 2004 and submitted to the province of Prince Edward Island for
approval in 2004 Tiled MODE Business Plan 2004
In it I outline how I will work with groups that wish to preserve and protect their heritage and
content.
And Gordon to conclude this self explanation and past achievements list of production and
management experience. It is the things I did not achieve that spur me on.
Thanks for you time, hope this helps in trying to explain my lifes effort put forth to date
regarding preservation and collection innovations and IP tools I have created to track and train
content for future generations.
However after all the time and effort we have put forth it seems we live in a society that does not
respect the creative efforts of it's citizenship.
I am disappointed I have to defend my creative works that I have offered and shared in exchange
for future opportunities of production and development. In good faith.
It does not alter me as an artist or creative person.
I pushes me to become better.
However I have taken great lengths to insure my company MODE is included in the work and
service I have conducted over the past four years with the partnership we created to do so.
It was this reason why Richard Brown convened a Joint committee meeting regarding IP and
Cultural tourism technologies and to appreciate this effort and concern I expressed at the time
this meeting was convened in 2007 Sept. present ..Buck Watts, Robert Vessey, Ritchard Brown,
Robert Trainor, Harry Holman on behalf of the minister, Education representatives Bethany
Dorion, Tourism representatives for technology. Bruce Matheson and MODE new media to
identify and protect the work we developed and to work together.
I have left a lot out but hope this helps in understanding further our production path and
development path and please feel free to continue to help me understand the process better.

Moving from Enterprise Location Data to Location Intelligence, Part 2 - Articles: "Application Software and Middleware
There's a choice of quality software and services for GPS-based solutions. Enterprise applications tend to be vertically oriented to specific industry needs. For example, there are fleet tracking applications in transportation, supply chain and logistics. In the retail and advertising industries, there are point-of-interest content-based applications that use site selection software for buildings and advertisements, respectively. Leading-edge vendors are awaking to the opportunities emerging in RTLS in which their products may be extended to capture or create new value."
Moving from Enterprise Location Data to Location Intelligence, Part 1 - Articles
Moving from Enterprise Location Data to Location Intelligence, Part 1 - Articles: "Enterprises are awakening to the amount of location information collecting in their decision support systems. Leaders are beginning to ask how to better leverage the 'where' in operational and strategic decisions. And yet, enterprise managers take a diverse rather than unified approach to managing location information and technology investments. Systems remain disconnected. Location information quality is handled in an ad hoc manner on an application-by-application basis - not enterprise-wide. As a result, information gaps exist throughout the various functional areas of the enterprise."

With increasingly powerful mobile gadgets connected to faster wireless networks, people and their digital lives are being pried loose from their desktops, dorm rooms, and houses.
As that happens, location becomes the foundation upon which to build all sorts of useful devices and services for consumers and businesses alike.

When you know where people are, you can offer applications that will find their friends, their co-workers, or that very expensive piece of machinery they need to get their job done. You can deliver real-time traffic and weather information and city and restaurant guides -- and make money from it via advertising or fees."

Tourism Charlottetown, in partnership with several other organizations, has put out a request for proposals for artists to create a three-dimensional, life-size bronze sculpture of the famous politician.
Kim Green, the chief executive of Tourism Charlottetown, says Macdonald was chosen for the sculpture because 'he was central in forming Canada' and was a key player at the 1864 Charlottetown conference."

Railways in Film
Railways in Film: "Railway films generally fit into one of the three following categories:
• Films in which trains are an essential backdrop and play an important, even essential role;
• Films in which a railway station is an essential backdrop;
• Films in which the railway is used as a prop in perhaps only one scene, but as an essential element to the film."

Railways in Film: "This article does not discuss documentary-type films showing rail travel or railways in action, because I am more interested in how the railway can be used as a prop or background in a film, and how it can create impact in a single scene. My intent is to show how a number of directors have made trains and stations an essential part of their films and skilfully used the railway to develop a story line for memorable movies."

GPS And The Confederation Trail.
This is a key component in our CTT model. MODE new media has been proposing GPS and 3d reconstruction of landmarks on the Confederation Trail. This would include Old train stations, homesteads, bridges, and community sites of heritage, related to the railway.
- How do we get this project up and running?
- The Future Generation project has been over looked . Why?
- We have shared our ideas with the province of Prince Edward island since 2005 .
- What do we have to do to get respect and help to develop our ideas.
Take A look At The Video Bar

Prince-Edward-Island Heritage-Future Generation: Throne Speach 2008 PEI: "A society which has a strong sense of its collective past and values is better prepared for its future. My Government strongly believes that by strengthening our cultural knowledge and pride in our Island that our identity will be even further enhanced.
That sense of Island identity is extremely important in a rapidly changing world. It will help moor us to our past while permitting us to embark on an inspired new future.
To this end, my Government will:
* begin implementation of the current Provincial Heritage Review;
* begin the development of an Island studies course for inclusion in our school system;
* increase our knowledge of the Island’s past through increased support to archaeological research in the province;
* strengthen our cultural industries by supporting the artisans and artists who lend so much to the evolving Island identity; and
* recognize the vital contribution of Island seniors to our cultural landscape by calling upon many to contribute their experience to the visual arts, story-telling, oral history, performance, literary arts and other areas. To that end, discussions have already been held with a seniors’ organization to begin the co-ordination of this cultural engagement project – which will provide lasting benefits to future generations.'"

Working On The Railway
- Map old stations and buildings, bridges,communities and railway people and their stories along the Confederation Trail.
- Digitalize artifacts and pictures and stories about the Prince Edward Island Railway
- Create a Prince Edward Island Railway Digital Collection based upon it's historical connections to Canada and Prince Edward Island joining together in 1873 as a nation of people.
- Link Atlantic Canada to the Prince Edward Island Railway.
Open Source Public Domain.
Open source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Open source is a development methodology,[1] which offers practical accessibility to a product's source (goods and knowledge). Some consider open source as one of various possible design approaches, while others consider it a critical strategic element of their operations. Before open source became widely adopted, developers and producers used a variety of phrases to describe the concept; the term open source gained popularity with the rise of the Internet, which provided access to diverse production models, communication paths, and interactive communities."
The Future Generations Model uses this fundamental development methodology in it's partnerships.
This new 3d railway Supplementary curriculum is created with a goal to present the history of the Prince Edward Island Railway and Canada's Confederation history and geography using games and supplemental social studies curriculums.
Our product has a universality and connection to the stations and the communities across Canada.

New Vehicles Tune In And Turn On To Reverse Geocoding Technologies
New vehicles tune in and turn on to reverse geocoding technologies.
Our current focus is to geocode and map the communities railway heritage sites and to digitalize the information for Future Generation 3D Virtual Mapping -For Public domain and Open Source geo-caching and mapping technologies .
Our heritage content can be hosted in any community domain on demand
Community platforms called Stations will connect to existing community sites to create new digital archives for the Community in the public Domain and for open source .
Communities win and so do cultural sector workers who work to learn more about this marketplace and are looking for creative innovations in cultural tourism technologies .
These "Stations" are than connected together to form a virtual railway that connects geospatal links and reverse geocoding to your cell phone ,internet, or your car.
The train will stop at places like Douglas Station to learn about Canadians who took the train to battle and you will vist the places of honor created by the communities to remember this sacrifice in places like St Peters and Souris and Douglas Station and York and every little station and town in north America, Europe and Asia.
Our Stations will tell stories about people and events in the towns history as well as current events and festivals and it will center around the Railway legacy the Confederation Trail for Future Generations.
This project requires the skills and the desire to work together and to create an open and transparent project that works to win at the knowledge economy level especially in the cultural sectors hub.
It is based upon existing learning models developed to learn experientially and inter generational.
Step one : involves mapping the sites we know about from our research paid for by the Prince Edward Island Government since 1983.
No learning product exist like the Future Generation Project.
- Our island will lead the way in new Trail Safty
- We will map and TAG existing sites about the Prince Edward Island Railway.
- Future Generations will build upon our capacity to create 3d learning technologies and 3d digital games here on Prince Edward Island.
- Our model is a process that engages communities to tell their stories about their stations and invites the world to visit and experience their heritage.
- Content is linked to Geocode and open source public domain for Google maps and yahoo maps currently used in cell phones and vehicles to find directions and events .
Coming up next:
Future Generation is designed for open source public domain IP

Trails and Content Mapping
We would like to start gathering information about the trails railway heritage .
The trail is the link and the connection to our future generations project.
Our railway tracks and trails tell a unique Prince Edward Island story .
We would like to look at ways we can connect existing trails with technology for safety and learning about Prince Edward Island Railway heritage.
Heritage content is key for Future Generations Project.
We would like to use our skills development models.
We would like to work with the Kier Gallery as lead agency.
We believe this would increase our opportunity to work with artists from the community and build cultural capacity in both the Kier Gallery and the Artists in our community using technology and new media and film/HD tools in production and development.
The Kier Gallery has the proven track record with our team and connects with the island artists and island communities.
Providing our project with the studio space and the hub to produce this project.
