It’s official and we’re busting with pride. Wagner James Au has the full story of the deal on New World Notes and Xeni Jardin covers it on Boing Boing.

Back in March of this year, my email box filled up one morning with notes from everyone I knew containing links to this film on Youtube. Each email had an almost identical message — usually something like “Have you seen this!?” Well, I contacted the creator and learned that it was the 1st episode in a 10 part series. I also learned that Douglas was a part time goat farmer recently returned from living in Tuscany and now living in nearby Petaluma. Since then, we’ve formed a friendship and he’s joined MoU as Chief Creative Officer. Together we’re begin to shape a cross-platform vision of virtual worlds and a goal of elevating the medium to an art form.

Congratulations Douglas. Can’t wait to see the rest of the episodes on HBO.
