The Dialog Interchange Program believes that incorporating technology to assist in the communication between parties will lead to better overall comprehension and understanding. We feel that the lack of rapid transmission causes miscommunication and that information transference by speech alone can no longer be trusted.

The Dialog Interchange Program prides itself on pushing the boundaries of science and technology even where most other scientists would laugh.
We see it as our duty to overcome the limitations of communication through verbal dialog.

Dr. Edward Wyczek
Doctor Edward Wyczek has dedicated the last 45 years of his life to pioneering research in advancing communication. He received his doctoral degree from the now closed but still prestigious University of Königsberg. Fleeing Königsberg during the Soviet takeover he immigrated to the United States to pursue his research where he received tenureship and an honorary status of permanent professor.
Dr. Wyczek has continued his life long goal of expanding communication and discovering innovative ways to fix the inherent problems with verbal dialog. His research has finally hit a precipice with the advancement of virtual reality and the youth of the current generation whom are generally more apt to immerse within a virtual world.
Test Subject
Dr. Ivan Stevenson
Professor of theoretical variables was the first to test the Quiet Type prototype. He has been a large supporter in the research at the institute. However, he had suffered partial paralysis after the initial filming. He still supports our efforts but will no longer participate in tests.
Test Subject
Philip Anderson
Philip works as a grant underwriter for the department here at the Communication Research Institute. He was our first pick for testing out the Businessman 2000. Unfortunately after the loss of his right hand he no longer can right so he has to dictate his letters.
Test Subject
Harrison Eldridge
Harrison was another one of the department heads here at the Communication Research Institute. He was enthusiastic about the opportunity to test the Businessman 2000 due to much of his business requiring him to be overseas for months at a time. Due to the loss of Mr. Anderson's' hand at the end of his handshake we lost contact with him somewhere outside the remote islands in South East Asia.
Test Subject
Ahad Bandi
Ahad is the chair of the Engineering department. His offices are in the building adjacent to our facility. Due to his research in bionic technology he jumped at the chance to incorporate Pretext into his department's communication system. After his subsequent removal from office our departments no longer have such great communication.
Test Subject
Mark Iverson
Mark was a recent hire to the Engineering department when read into the Pretext project. His experience with neural network computing made the opportunity of feedback from him a massive benefit. We received over 1024 suggestions in the form of a large self bound book. We have yet to read through it.
Test Subject
Sarah Wilkins
Sarah was the first female engineer department head. Her insight into mental throughput was intended to help the Pretext program develop into a fluid transmission service. Due to the sexual harassment claims and the emotional distress caused she also has yet to speak with us.
Test Subject
Timothy Upclaw
Timothy was a student working in our department as an assistant whom we felt would be a good option to test the Living Profile. After the death of Kay Jang from a freak rock climbing "accident" he never returned to campus.
Test Subject
Henry Jang
Henry was an up and coming student in the communication research field who had previously provided significant insight into several offshoot tests conducted. We felt his dedication and cleaver innovation into the research would prove helpful with the Living Profile. We are saddened by his passing during our tests. He will always be apart of our efforts at correcting terrible and inattentive communication.
Test Subject
Kyle Sinclare
Kyle was one of our most recent Masters students who assisted in many of the research projects in the labs. Fascinated with the technological aspects of Opticon, Kyle insisted on becoming the first to test it out. After nearly being hit by a speeding car and spraining his ankle, we suspended the Opticon test trial to analyze the failures. We noticed that almost 200 applications and games were installed onto the Opticon and it had been infected with countless viruses and spyware. Kyle was banned from further tests.
