Journey into your own imagination as the very headphones you listen to this story on will make a direct physical connection to your limbic system. Allowing one of our highly trained visualization therapists to talk to you directly and help you imagine the story you have wanted to tell for so long. The Gilded Imagination is the final production to be produced by Peter Beeston and Cornucopia Radio before he moves onto other projects. However all the work created over the past 17 years will remain available to listen to via our website and the different podcast feeds and nothing will be removed in the future. This brand new production which mixes audio asmr roleplay and action soundscapes is a personal journey that is meant to be a conclusion for Cornucopia Radio. Its all about the mindset of a person who creates stories like this. Suggesting that all these productions might come from another reality beyond ours.

It is said that life crawled up from the slime of the sea bottom and became ‘Human’ because of some inherent greatness that was bred into us before the dawn of time.

We then edited/mixed these voices together; creating this unique multicast recording.Please note: This work was originally written for the January 1957 edition of ‘Amazing Stories’ magazine. Copyright on this publication was not renewed, and it is now in the public domain.

We see pages full of colour and life, in which kinetic action moves across the panels. Dancing in front of our eyes, filling our imagination with endless possibilities...Comics are a way of life for so many people, but do we truly understand their power? More importantly; if that power was ever unleashed, would it be used for good or for evil?So today, we're asking the question. What would we create?A superhero, or perhaps... a monster?

Suddenly, Blodwyn recalls the question she wanted to ask. The question she knew she had to ask.
