Has Marc Canter with Instigate.ai created the next big thing after Tik Tok?

Alysha has the pleasure of meeting Marc Canter all because she listened to her “Spidey Sense” after Erica O’Grady (Episode 8) told her about Jeff Pulver’s networking group (Episode 15) which is how they connected. However, it was after the biggest myrony that connected Daniel Kottke from last week’s episode (Episode 17) that Alysha knew meeting Marc was for a greater reason. Hear the continued story from last week’s episode of the early days of Silicon Valley where Canter shares about his experience with Jobs and how Canter’s software MacroMind (which later became Macromedia) was also in the first Apple Computers. Canter shares his extremely colorful history in the software world including his claim to fame with video games (remember Professor Pac-Man?) and his meeting with Bill Gates…we know even if you are not into computers will appreciate the story he shares. Canter finally explains about his latest creativity & entertainment tool known as Instigate.ai where we will be able to tell a “story” with AI that we get to create. Is this going to be the next big thing after Instagram and Tik Tok? We hope so because for those that are tired of just selfies, Instigate.ai is the answer & more myronies could be shared!!                About the Guest:Marc Canter is a software entrepreneur, who co-founded MacroMind (in 1984 in Chicago), which became Macromedia [MACR.] Because of Marc's tireless work, enthusiastic evangelism and creative leadership - Marc is known as "one of the fathers of multimedia."After Macromedia Marc created an Interactive Music Video Band (MediaBand) w/Todd Rungren, created an Interactive TV Talk Show and a venue based Operating system (MediaBar) all leading up to "the Internet."
