The Story

🎭 The Performer (30+ Years)

Magic Circle Magician. UK Children's Entertainer of the Year 2018. Comedy hypnotist. Punch & Judy traditionalist. Ventriloquist. Santa Claus.

30 years making people laugh. From cruise ships to Las Vegas, Blackpool to Bristol living rooms. Kids are brutally honest critics - they made me better than any adult audience ever could.

But performance was just the beginning.

✨ The Origin: GlowGadgets (1999-2003)

Bristol rave scene. Lakota. Trinity. The underground venues where PLUR wasn't a slogan - it was survival.

Selling glow sticks, light toys, poi. But really? Building community. Looking after each other. Making sure everyone got home safe. Revenue circulating, not extracting.

I invented influencer marketing before social media existed. I just didn't know that's what it was called. I was just making sure the massive was taken care of.

That's where this all started. The FeelFamous ecosystem is GlowGadgets energy scaled to the entire internet.

🧠 AuDHD (The Superpower)

Autistic. ADHD. Neurodivergent. My brain works differently and that's exactly why this works.

I see patterns others miss. I connect dots that seem unrelated. I build systems that make sense to brains like mine - which means they make sense to EVERYONE.

"If Ian can use it, anyone can use it." That's the design principle. Reduce cognitive load. "I got you" energy. No dark patterns. Kind humans only.

🐭 The Partnerships

Ian (Holy Mole): Pattern recognition genius trapped at Iceland supermarket with chronic back pain. Writer of Strange Mole Show political satire. We did Doc Strange & The Dude in 2020 lockdown - predicted everything that's happened. He's my inspiration. I built this entire ecosystem because he deserves escape infrastructure.

malum: Bristol magician with 24 years experience. Autistic. Masks too much. Needed permission to be himself and professional infrastructure he didn't have to build. Now he's got it.

The others coming: More wage slaves needing escape routes. More neurodivergent creatives needing permission slips. More silenced voices needing amplification.

🌟 The Ecosystem (What We're Building)

Not charity. Infrastructure.

• Hamlets - Self-contained villages for anyone who needs one
• Kudos System - 1 coffee = 1 review = equal value across all villages
• Dealer Network - Performers, creators, community builders earning passes
• Bridge Walkers - Connect communities, circulate revenue
• EntertainCMS - Booking system for entire performer network
• MeshCB - Offline networking for community resilience
• SpicyLister - AI tools that actually help people
• -Oid apps - Identification tools for collectors (Magic, Cannabis, etc)

💼 The Corporate Pivot

Doc Strange: Performance psychology training. £1000 per employee for companies with 100+ staff. That's £100k-150k per booking.

Not therapy. Performance. How to show up under pressure. How to read a room. How to connect with humans. How to handle rejection. How to recover from failure.

Skills I learned from 30 years performing for brutally honest kids and drunk adults. Now teaching it to corporate teams who need it desperately.

📚 Essential Reading: Thinking, Fast and Slow and Influence form the foundation of Doc Strange training methodology.

📡 The Tech DNA

CB radio (1970s): Learned mesh networking before it was cool. Community communication. Helping strangers. That ethos never left.

Bristol rave scene (1999-2003): PLUR in action. Revenue circulation. Community care. Looking after the massive.

FeelFamous (2024-2026): Same energy. Different technology. Bigger scale. World domination through kindness.
