Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter! [ Mar 9, 2026 ]
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
Panel 1
Captain Pinder, Nicole, and First Mate Funmi Balogun (a large, muscular Kenyan-descendent with an ascetic demeanor, but kind eyes) at a corridor intersection aboard the Spanish Wells.
Pinder: Yes, you can have a tour of the ship – my First Mate Abdi Noor, here, will show you around.
Abdi: Pleased to meet you, Ms. Oresme.
Panel 2
Abdi and Nicole begin walking along a corridor, just wide enough to permit the two of them to walk side-by-side. She is peering curiously down a side-way.
Abdi: It is an honor to escort the famed female Sun-Diver.
Nicole: Er, yes, we call ourselves 'Sun-Shooters,' actually.
Panel 3
Abdi and Nicole enter a 5x6 meter room, with cabinets, a counter, sink and cooker lining the walls, a 2-meter table and chairs are in the center of the room. She doesn't look particularly impressed.
Abdi: This is the ship's mess, where you will obtain food for yourself and your associate.
Nicole: Uh, great.
Panel 4
Closer 2-shot of Abdi and Nicole.
Nicole: Actually, I'm more interested in seeing the engineering section.
Abdi: Yes, one does not live on bread alone – but a sated stomach helps one better focus on the job.
