Silicon Philosophies

Formerly known as Front Porch Video Inc. 1996-2000, Silicon Philosophies was established in September 2000 in Philadelphia, PA (USA). The company has been instrumental in pioneering several unique applications while servicing and supporting the Film, Broadcast, Video, Internet, and Art communities. In 2003 Silicon Philosophies relocated to Germany yet remained true to providing their generous assistance with technical expertise in video to DVD conversion, installation planning, behind-the-scenes, and on-site assistance. Silicon Philosophies has been providing the majority of its art disc production pro-bono to the international community since the advent of DVDs. The company’s original team engineered the world’s 1st DVD Studio Encoding System at Toshiba Research center in Princeton for Time Warner’s California Video Center and recently developed a new video instant-messaging system. Extending its partnership across the arts into interactive education, communication, and Medical Imaging, Silicon Philosophies’ core objective is to advocate the use of technology to improve quality of life.
