Approached by Pioneer to assemble a varied team of media artists to produce software for their upcoming LaserActive platform, ambient artist Jotaro Nonaka founded Multimedia Creators Network, and subsequently recruited his mentor Hosono as a founding member of the fledgling studio. Hosono would contribute to the group's three released titles: 1994's 3D Museum and Melon Brains: Exploring The Mind Of The Dolphin, and 1995's Goku, with a fourth title, UFO & ET, planned but ultimately cancelled.[1]
