Modelling underwayTimekeeper · Tomáš
The first sculpt is being developed as the reference for proportions, detail and finish.
Next: review the renders, settle the construction and assess tag placement. Additional characters follow separately.
Technical feasibility discussionIntarsia knitwear · ITES
The character remains knitted in. ITES has advised on simplifying the illustrated curves for intarsia; textured and lighter fine-knit routes are being explored.
Next: agree artwork adaptation, yarn, gauge, sample scope and a quotation for 300 pieces in three colours.
Alternative concept submittedVoyager hoodie · Due Toscani
A simpler direction using an existing knitted hoodie style, small embroidery and discreet XO branding.
Next: confirm personalisation, yarn, sample cost and a feasible small-series colour split.
Production & fulfilment enquiriesCards · MPC / QPMN
World Card artwork and finish requirements are available. Unique Journey Cards, personal 78-card decks and direct-to-player delivery are under assessment.
Next: finalise the World Card sample and confirm personal-card pricing, batching and fulfilment options.
Materials enquiry sentWooden Voyager · Instinct Pump
A wood or cork-like appearance with real textile elements is being explored as another collectible direction.
Next: establish material, scale, clothing capability and sample scope before commissioning.
Prototype enquiry sentRound Table · Andy Thornton
An exploratory enquiry asks for a maker’s view on one RT01 prototype, supported by the design brief and quiet pop-up concept.
Next: assess construction, comfort, repair, transport and prototype cost. A maker is not yet appointed.
Venue discussionsPrague & Brno · M6 / KUMST
M6 has responded positively to a three-day format; availability and local hosting are being explored. An initial enquiry has also been sent to KUMST.
Next: align sample readiness, dates, local support and the visitor experience before booking.
Proposed technical routeContinuity · Beontag
The Timekeeper and one World Card are the proposed first physical test, with QR and secure NFC considered as routes to an object’s continuing record.
Next: agree a technical contact, suitable samples and the integration plan. Collaboration terms remain to be discussed.
