To my great pleasure, I was asked to teach a first-time new course to a class of undergraduate seniors at Woodbury University, a private, non-profit, coeducational, nonsectarian university located in Burbank, CA. Though small, the University is venerable having been founded in 1884.Four years ago, the University launched a degree program called Media Technology. This spring the first crop of program seniors are getting ready to graduate.To support this, the department created a class called "Media Tech, Professional Practices". Jesse Gilbert, the department chair and I met last fall, resulting in my taking on the challenge of launching this class. More importantly, of taking on the challenge of helping to launch this bright group of seniors into the real world of Media Technology.The course has been likened to drinking from a fire hose in that we cover a broad swath of topics including: * Business Structures - Guidance to Employees, Contractors and Entrepreneurs, * The Resume and The Interview, * Intellectual Property - Patents, Trademarks, and Copyright, * Defining a Project - Proposals and Budgets --- and that's only 4 of 12 weeks!I am thrilled to be teaching again, honored by the task, and will likely expand this area of my endeavors over the coming period.

Panoram was a world renowned premier developer, integrator and suppliers of advanced, high-resolution, large-scale data visualization systems for oil/gas, manufacturing, engineering, aerospace, scientific and military/government applications. With Theo Mayer's unique vision on the application of new technologies, the company became an industry leading success developing projects for companies that included: BP, CALTEX, Chevron, Texaco, Conoco, Encana, Halliburton, Marathon, Occidental, PDVSA, Petrobras, Saudi Aramco and Schlumberger in oil/gas; Boeing, Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), Honeywell, Hughes, NASA’s Dryden, NASA's JPL, Lockheed Martin, National Imagery & Mapping Agency (NIMA now NGA), Naval Air Warfare Center (NAWC), Newport News, Northrop, National Parks Service (NPS), Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC), Space & Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), Tank-automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM), The National Information Display Laboratory (NIDL), U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Navy for government applications; Full Sail University, Manchester University, Memorial University of Newfoundland, San Diego State University, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Sam Houston University, Texas Tech University, University of Lapland, University of Southern California, University of Wisconsin, and Wichita State University for scientific computing.As well as Airbus Industries, Honda of America, CALTY (Toyota), Daimler Benz, Dassault, GM, Haworth, Herman Miller, Hewlett-Packard, Phelps Dodge, Jaguar Motors, Mazda Motors, PTC, SDRC, and SGI in manufacturing.Panoram fell victim to the 2008 economic meltdown and ceased operations that year.

From 1977 to 1993 Theo Mayer was the President of Metavision, a high-tech media company aimed at “the application of new technology for entertainment and communication”. At the company he was also the writer/producer for a variety of trend setting and award winning projects including nearly a decade of working on the creative development and attraction production for the Universal Studios Orlando project; the National Geographic Society’s Centennial Celebration; “Always Elvis” created for Weintraub Entertainment, Colonel Tom Parker and the Presley Estate; Executive Producer of one of the world’s first electronic media press kits for the 1981 inaugural launch of the US Space Shuttle; writer and Executive Producer of a landmark briefing for Gen. Danny Graham that resulted in President Reagan’s famous “Star Wars” speech.He retired as President in 1993 to found Panoram Technologies.Metavision ceased operations around 2001.

In 1973 Theo Mayer was hired by Japanese tape recorder manufacturer, TEAC and became part of the launch team for a spin-off called TASCAM. These companies changed the recording industry by commoditizing the recording studio to be within reach of every star struck musician hoping to catch their break. Mr. Mayer’s role was somewhere between product visionary and technology evangelist.

Theo Mayer began his career as a studio musician, producer and recording engineer in the fervent Los Angeles music scene of the early 70’s. His knowledge of the then newly introduced Moog Synthesizer offered him opportunities in both commercial and creative directions. Theo still sometimes secretly records and produces under the pseudonym "Mister Buster";.
