Muse is an acronym for Multi User Shared Experience, maybe the letters match up with an old Xbox Live game (the first game maybe?). Or possibly something older.

I really get the feeling that we have to actually answer the challenges question: I am in 6 places where you talk.

we need to focus on the "i was a muse", thats the best lead, remember last challenge the "inviting challenge" pointed to the E3 invitation. Muse typically means inspiration. So what was an inspiration for the new x-box?

Xbox 360? presumably a circle, or a circular device of some kind.

"it" was a muse. Multi-User-Shared-Experience.

Old gaming server, old platform?

whoa muse.com is really weird and look at the subject of the email when sending one to the owner of the website : "LET ME KNOW WHEN IT HAPPENS"

www.muse.com is it OOG? or not?

There are some very interesting things that relate to game consoles there. I was looking through and discovered that Muse is making this thing called Sky and it apparently is a high tech game console device that is almost like virtual reality. One thing really got me though.

A four year old girl plays her favorite Peter and the Wolf CD and her game console transforms into her very own play box. She uses a graphics tablet and stylus like a crayon to lay down a riot of animated color. She knows the commands: good, bad, back, forth, stop and go. Through these commands, palettes and rules adapt to fit her preferences. Whenever she plays the same CD, the same performances emerge, which she can overlay with new ones. Now and then, mom grabs one of her pieces and emails it to grandpa.

An eight year old boy plugs his midi guitar into his computer and starts a DVD movie. Magically, a tic-tac-toe grid appears that bears some resemblance to the show Hollywood Squares. But instead of actors, thumbnails of live web performances appear. Even though there may be a million performers online, the combination of his guitar and the DVD movie helps him to select the best session, within a few clicks. What appears is a full screen jam session with two other performers. His DVD disk and an mp3 sound file synchronize so that all his friends hear the same music and view the same images. He starts to strum out color pulses on his midi guitar, while someone else is scrawling out lyrics with a graphics tablet, and another is drumming out images. Everyone sees and hears the same result and it's really cool! Chances are they'll meet again.

A twelve year old girl could have easily orchestrated the above session. She uses a tree widget as a patch bay. She connects the midi-drum branch to a DVD-image branch and she connects the midi-guitar to the palette-pulse branch. The orchestration widget provides immediate gratification in the same vein as an old modular synthesizer. She can patch parts together and instantly hear or see a result.

A sixteen year old boy can create new effects by writing small snippets of code. He scripts out a sequence of rules that interleave two images and transforms them to create a new one.

Then later on, i found a picture of a domed building, could the xbox 360 project???

A lot of those points u just made included the connections and urban legends at:http://home.comcast.net/~jilee86/ourcolony/challenge.htm

way to many connections to be oog
