    Simple Harmonic Motion

    Hey everyone! 

    Simple Harmonic Motion was a bonus episode we created as a mailing list sign-on incentive. Since we're no longer maintaining the list, we're uploading it for everyone. Treat it like the unaired pilot episode.

    Written by Michael Coorlim, it features the vocal talents of Kat O'Connor as Captain Margaret Kincade, Song Marshall as Lieutenant Claire Jacqueme, and Ruth Kaufman as A.M.I.

    Kat O’Connor - “Captain Margaret Kincade” Kat O’Connor is a Midwest native, but born with an Irish passion that was a bit too big for a small town. She has been featured in a number of independent films, including the award-winning short film Hatboxes, and Out of Sight. She is a natural storyteller, with words or, just as often, without. Her personal mission is to tell the story, and thus change the world, one heart at a time. 

    Song Marshall - “Lieutenant Claire Jacqueme” Born in West Covina, California, Song grew up all over the country, living in California, Georgia, Florida, and Louisiana. She obtained her Bachelor's Degree in Theatre from Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida. Find her on Instagram and tiktok @TheWhimsyBlerd.

    Ruth Kaufman - “A.M.I.” Ruth Kaufman is a Chicago author, voiceover and on-camera talent. She’s narrated dozens of projects, voiced numerous characters, and has had roles in various independent features, web series and national TV commercials. And she’s performed on stages from iO to the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Her unparalleled improvisational speed talking has been featured on America’s Funniest People and in other productions.

    No AI was used in the writing or production of this episode. It was all pure human talent.
