(PRWEB) March 26, 2012

KnowledgeMills OnePlace cloud and on-premise solution makes the classification of emails and documents a natural part of Outlook and Office, and gives collaborative workers a shared single file for any customer, project or legal matter without ever leaving the familiar environs of Outlook and Office. The user task of filing is reduced by over 90% through self-filing emails and intelligent tagging, and IT overhead is dramatically reduced by separating information rich business emails from disposable emails.

Founded in 2009 by content management experts from some of the worlds largest law firms, KnowledgeMills enterprise grade software can handle 10,000s of users, asynchronously filing emails to avoid performance hits, and works seamlessly with existing document management infrastructure to add effective handling of todays very high volume of information rich emails. KnowledgeMill currently partners with Oracle, EMC, Microsoft and Fujitsu to service enterprise customers.

KnowledgeMill CEO Hisham Anis said We have transformed Outlook to accommodate the fact that email is the de-facto dominant store of documents and business information for businesses today, and this funding and expansion of resources signals that we are building a world-leading business around that innovation. Its great to bring experienced venture capital providers such as Seraphim and MMC into our team he added.

The company underlined its ambitions with the appointment of Peter Norman as Executive Chairman. A veteran of British technology success stories Psion PLC and Sophos PLC, Peter said KnowledgeMill have an extraordinary opportunity to reverse the fragmentation of filing that happened with the explosion of email, by bringing into Outlook the underlying concept of single shared storage without the user compromising on flexibility or even having to consciously file 80% of their business correspondence. He added My job is to help guide them to rapidly build a world leading business from this significant product technology.

The Road Trip

Zannah Noes American Bones Road Trip; a multi-media project inspired by the concept of the WPA Artists of the Great Depressionis utilizing a twenty-first century alternative source of support to go off road with an artists adventurous spirit to photograph, write and document her experiences. Upon her return she will create a body of paintings based on all of the material collected called American Bones. She is out to create a new version of Americana.

During these tough economic times for the creative class, Noe is using new tools that give options for funding and manufacturing for artists. With the intention and itinerary in mind, Noe turned to the crowd funding website, Kickstarter.com as base of support for The American Bones Road Trip. Her friends and supporters have met her Kickstarter funding goals with time to raise even more money until April 9th. Continued support will allow the project to expand into a deeper exploration of the current American experience. She will be utilizing Tech Shop in San Francisco and Detroit to manufacture her roller coasters as laser cut 3D objects, stencils and silk screens, as pledge gifts to her Kickstarter backers.

The Art

The work explores a deeper understanding of our cultural icons, roots and myths about us as a nation. Noes work will be based on historical facts of our roots along with present day cultural differences. Touring the nation in an election year, she will bring a fresh look at the culture that our current political landscape seeks to understand, if only for its own purposes. Illustrating initially with her photographs, blog and sketches, she will create an image library of portraits, landscapes, architecture, and stories for later use in a series of fine art oil paintings. In her earlier series,Amusement Architecture, portraits of Coney Island and the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, she found inspiration for the expanding the series. The roller coaster as the projects icon was chosen, as it is a universally shared American experience outside of religion and politics.

On April 7th, she will have completed a two-month Artist in Residency at Gathering Artists Gallery in Corrales, NM, who will represent her southwest series. She departs on the road on April 8th. Additional shows are Tres Amigas a group show with New Mexico artists, Jade Leyva and Ann Osenga at the Red Boot Gallery, at The Range Caf
