Only 11 days left. The book is published, although not for sale. As early as next week the marketing may be begun; but there is work on the grants for now.
I did not receive responses that i need for the second one, but finishing the first remains the target for this weekend.
It is saturday at 530am, i have been up for around 45 minutes, maybe closer to an hour, hard to remember.
It is already warm outside. I am hoping to walk in 20 minutes so that i can think about swimming later today.
I would argue that in terms of the current grant it is mostly an editing job. As far as the book goes, it is just a matter of clicking a button or two to make it available. The goal is to have the grant finished by Monday morning and to begin at least one more; hopefully have the info to finish the polymer one. It would be nice to have some additional responses; but we will have to see.
Progress and stepping back seem to go hand in hand with this project. i have manufacturing lined up for the grant i am working on, i have team targets with universities and people working on those. I figured out magnetic repulsion.
I have the NM thing lined up on the one hand and cant even really think about it on the other because, after all, whether I am in or out I have to save the world and pursue my project. This month, in a mere 16 days the process begins in earnest; i suppose it is a good thing that my book is finished! This was just a personal thing, but now that i look at the dates, it is just in time.
An application or product idea that fits into one or more of
our 5 technology areas:
advanced materials, AI & advanced computing, biotechnology, space systems, or energy transition.
Intention to transition your technology into a product.
Application Dates 2023 (TBA)
APPLICATIONS OPEN:MARCH , 2023 APRIL, 2023
June 20-July 1, 2022: Virtual Interviews Scheduling
Applicants are interviewed by a panel of staff, advisors and
subject matter experts.
July 12-August 29, 2022: Alignment Workshop/Semi-Final
Scheduling
Selected applicants are paired with national laboratory researchers to determine synergy for collaboration.
September 12-13, 2022: Final Pitch Days Finalists present to our Strategic Leadership Council, reviewers, and staff for final selection.
Fall, 2022: Cohorts Announced Announcement includes press release, bios and project description. January, 2023: Fellows Onboarding
So between 62022 and 7122 the first decision making will begin which will not end for everyone before September; it could well end for me when nothing is scheduled which would, of course, be a travesty; but there have been no shortage of those. When you are doing something as weird as this (a photon source of sufficient size sends them in every direction because the universe within the middle section is so evenly wound up from every side from repeated windings and unwindings based of the quantum equation at the source of the denominator of pi solutions and folding of ct1 into ct2 (and beyond) that it appears that it is unwinding evenly, carrying these photons with it, in every direction evenly despite the probability that ultimately it is flattened due to the building and unbuilding of dimensions at the edges) and such as that which brings me and us to this strange point in time which is so monumental, but so irrelevant under the circumstances.
It is now 7:11am and I finished the 2.4 something mile walk. The sun was already threatening when I started an hour before, so it was in large patches assaulting me on the way back, up the steep hill; but through the beginning and most of the walk, it was fairly cool and certainly better than the 90s that wait in the evening and I have my exercise for the day, although I will likely swim later after dealing with the grant things that remain to be done this weekend.
I will publish this and I will return later, perhaps to edit it.
Since I did a fair amount of yard work and at least minimal cleaning at the office this week...and because I cleaned up a lot of my technical work...
