A Word from our Founder
Welcome! I’m Ed Heinbockel, the guy that as founder and president of Visual Purple is supposed to have all the answers when it comes to leading/bleeding edge training sims that make a difference. Well, don’t get too attached to that notion. We, NOT just me, have some ideas and this forum will be the main means by which we will share what we are up to. And I promise you, some of the ideas will be more entertaining than helpful (though not by design) as we continue our adventure of training and learning in 3D worlds.
For those of you that know me, you are probably shell-shocked. Yes, the day has come: I have finally succumbed to blogging. For some time I would scan blogs with much gnashing of teeth rarely gleaning much except mindless prose or poorly veiled marketing.
We have a different agenda here at Visual Purple.
The real reason we’ve gone live with this blog is to provide a fresh conduit of what we’re learning, building, testing and implementing in the world of advanced training sims. I promise that we will work hard to keep this as untainted marketing-wise as possible. But understand that we are humans and I can guarantee you that from time-to-time our Kool-Aid-inspired passions of what we do here at VP will creep in. So, be forewarned.
Check back often for updates as we develop our style and fold this channel of comms into our lives.
