The Center for Empyrean Studies is an informal network based around the idea that CCP has provided us with a staggering amount of lore for New Eden. The hope is that this network will engage in analysis, postulation, and all around love of EVE Lore through discussion, articles, chronicles, and the like.
CEMPS as a corporation will not have open recruitment, as in-game "playing" activities will be limited, if present at all beyond chat capabilities and in-game research. It hopes to simply facilitate the conversation and spark the creation of stories and information pertaining to lore. Recruitment will be based upon a case-by-case basis, dealing with the interest in the goals of the group. Young and alternate characters will be evaluated the same as everyone else.

So obviously I think this is a great idea, as we've discussed it some in-game. I like the idea of recruiting people new to S&I or even EVE in general and teaching them how S&I works, plus of course observing them.
A few thoughts on mechanics: if you're not planning to go to NPC null for better access to station research resources (e.g. BP copying and ME research), then you might think about whether a POS is more appropriate. And that takes a lot more planning and work. Alternately, depending on where you locate, you could make an IC business arrangement with the Syndicate or Cartel or something just to rent their labs.
Tool blueprints are excellent RP fodder, especially the R.Db items. You'll probably want to expand past them fairly quickly, though. And consider whether you'll want to expand to some form of in-space operations, whether that's exploration or something else.
I'll send you a PM as well. :cube:

Simply a genius idea. Good luck with this concept!
-
As the corp's 2nd member behind Jasper himself, I endorse this concept. Already having fun!

It's like my paranoid fantasies about the Arek'Jalaan project came alive, and my friends started hanging out with them.
In other words, awesome!

First post updated. Hopefully I'll have more data up soon.

*likes dis*
Ko must find a way to poke at you IC.

I like this idea.

Ok, I'm redoing this. This is just a bump at the moment, will be re-doing all the rest soon.
Edit: New mission statement is up.

May have an excuse to start publishing EVE papers again. Can't help but feel New Eden needs more SCIENCE.
-
Science Lore, Art Lore, Culture Lore (looking at you Seri) whatever can be fluffed from what we have, I'm up for collecting!
