Title - Sound Mind Streamer Launch

Q:
1. If San Quentin State Prison don't allow direct Internet access to inmates, how was your group able to go streamer mode on campus media center channels?

A: SQTV has Videoted Digital HD2600XDT DVD Players per channel.
a) We searched specs on Videoted Digital Industrial DVD players to make sure our content donors could reformat on 16GB writable Blue Ray Disc.
b) Then we used Media virtual space app and Software Direction layering methods of New Media 3.0 to model Live Streaming programming that plays for 24 hours a Day, for an entire week, with DVD player set to continuous play mode. The Prison does a weekly disc change, so instead of 123 minute standard DVD playing for two whole weeks like on all other sat channels, our disc is leaded with 16GB worth of content which streams for the duration of an entire week, file compression is our secret weapon, well not so secret now that your question has forced full disclosure, writable DVDs basically.

Q:
2. CDCR has over 30 prisons, can you name another prison in the United States that have an LGBTQIA+ Perspective televised Innovative Rehabilitation Channel like your Sound Mind Streamer?

A: NO, not educationally, spiritually, Ethnically applicable, nor mental wellness, nor event entertainment. not even the prisons designated for housing Transgenders.

Q:
3. So far, You're only mentioned SQTV Media Center access, do you have a video to offer or ship copies in DVD format to all CDCR Facilities?

A: Yes, and we are also in the works of providing the entire SMS Program as a Rehabilitation Program Submission for the new statewide Tablet Program collaboration between CDCR and Globoltel Link as a free app working on 1 Terrabyte.

Q:
4. Being that SMS is generated from four condemned group and the media center is operated by General population Residents, have prison admins allowed General Population Resident contribute to SMS programming?

A: Before Covid-19, NO, however CDCR has enforced New Americans with Disabilities Act Mandates for the inclusion of all Videos broadcasted on Prison Media TV Lines for the Hearing impaired to be displayed with captions and or transcriptions, so now there is a group of GP residents participation by helping SMS with captions using both ADobe connects and movie software and absolute historical first media center collaboration between GP and Condemned residents.

Q:
5. Let me get this straight (NPI) I totally get what you're doing, and its incredible, but you can't be telling me that in 2021-22, your non-funded Media Center upgrades to the most program advanced prison in the state is forced to submit DVDs?

A: Exactly, we had to downgrade our program to upgrade the media center with virtual space emulation programming and this is why New Media & Media Casting had to step in and give SMS streamer tech presentation without looking like the same old stone aged prerecorded look. Mind you, condemned residents don't have access to the Media Center or any of the equipment over there, we are doing this work from our brains! Into the Brains of our core of community volunteers, some of whom live in other countries, yes, through, phone calls and letters, it begs to question, whats not going on at SQTV Media Center? I think the answer is, Pianhk and Parallaxboi. If it wasn't for Netherlands based D.J. Jules, who did most of the heavy lifting on this digest, we would still be in the stone ages, and that's facts, she did everything to help us.

Q:
6. Just watched all of the AZANDE Press + playlist, and yes, it's dated before Covid 19, great idea by the way to scroll articles, I learned more about black gay history with this then what I've seen so far, so who needs captions?

A: Yeah, thanks. They don't listen to us, so we had to demo how easy it is to simply clipboard articles or complete transcript versions of Movies and Interviews, the scroll, and Power Director app and free software, and kapwing erc, made new media 3.0 out performed the slow paced captioning work, without spellcheck, or fast-forward and rewinding to do patch corrections. I intended to make te AZANDE Press + playlist to read and view like a VLine Thanks for acknowledging that we predated the COVID-19 virtual learning adaptions, people don't believe it.
