SOLU Self-Publishing Software Platform Keeps Your Legacy Alive Forever
SOLU launches world's first comprehensive multimedia storytelling platform that inspires people to record their life stories and preserve their legacies.
Ketchum, ID, October 20, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Solu Publishing, Inc. announced today that it is launching SOLU, a self-publishing software platform created to provide users with all the tools required to publish their personal memoirs and preserve their legacies.
SOLU is the world’s first comprehensive multimedia storytelling platform that inspires people to record their life stories, automatically organizes these stories into a series of editable and sharable chapters, allows users to connect and interact with friends and family, and preserves their legacy archives for generations in the cloud and via an optional downloadable SOLU eBook.
Based on the user’s interests and through intuitive thought-prompts, SOLU records and compiles voice, text and images, shaping them into a real-time, interactive memoir to be enjoyed for generations to come. The more stories told, the more SOLU evolves with the user, seamlessly adapting to the user’s needs. Thereafter, loved ones can explore the archivist’s life stories in an organized and delightfully personal manner, providing comments or asking questions of the author in a process SOLU characterizes as paying “homage.” Unlike most social media, SOLU content is private by default, with only designated recipients being notified of stories added to an individual’s archive.
“Unless you’re rich and famous, trying to publish a personal memoir is a frustrating and expensive endeavor, so we really set out to democratize that process,” said David Currier, SOLU CEO. “Whenever someone dies, a story is lost forever; something I’ve become painfully aware of since losing my dad to Alzheimer’s and my mom to cancer. My mom sang in our church choir as an alto with a natural inclination for harmony, and one of her favorite hymns was, How Great Thou Art. I’m resolute that others won’t ever have to lose something so powerful as a mother’s voice.”
Because storytelling, and its associated elements of music, images and voice, triggers the Emotional Memory Management system of the brain, there is a clinical aspect to SOLU as well, based on documented research around modalities such as Reminiscence Therapy and others that help maintain, or even improve, neuroplasticity. Patients afflicted with many disease symptoms such as dementias, depression, anxiety, tremors, dysarthria and insomnia will discover that SOLU is a robust daily mechanism for improving quality of life for the affected individuals, families and caregivers.
SOLU partnered with Raster, LLC, an award-winning mobile innovation firm based in Las Vegas, NV, as developers of the early programming of the software. Initially launching for iPad, the SOLU platform is supported by both app and web versions and will become device agnostic in a subsequent version. For more information visit www.solu.pub.
