One framework. A whole ecosystem of expressions.
The connective tissue is Patternomics™—a framework publicly archived with DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21040834. It helps explain why the studio's creative, educational, research, and operational work belongs together without revealing the proprietary implementation machinery.
Programs
A complete, pilot-ready program for veteran-serving organizations and recovery programs — workshops, curriculum kits, and train-the-trainer.
Packages →Curriculum
Classroom SEL curriculum for schools, built from the kids' storyworld Bob & the Blobs™.
Preview →Publishing & licensing
Original IP across books, screen, curriculum, and products, available for rights and licensing partnerships.
Rights →Music, audio & video
Original family audio, audio stories, and distinct YouTube channels in development, all routed through the studio's central media hub.
Watch & listen →Client deliverables
Screenplays, scripts, SOPs, playbooks, curriculum, business writing, scenarios, and other defined projects for clients.
Work with Robert →How the studio earns.
Revenue comes from services and licensing: facilitated workshops and keynotes, paid pilots, curriculum site licenses, train-the-trainer certification, and rights/licensing of original IP. Programs are sold to organizations — veteran-serving organizations, recovery programs, schools, nonprofits, and teams.
Where things stand, plainly: Slight Angle Studios, LLC is a California company formed in 2026. The foundational Patternomics paper is publicly archived with a DOI. The studio has active creative, educational, research, and service materials at different stages, and labels work that is still in development instead of presenting it as released.
Built by the person it was built for.
Founder Robert James Gustavson is a former airborne combat medic and service-disabled veteran. The method — see the pattern, name it, acknowledge it, redirect it — comes from a medic's discipline of assessing under pressure, and from lived experience of recovery. He built the studio's full catalog of programs, curriculum, and storyworlds before asking anyone to buy one.
Pilot partners wanted.
We're looking for a small number of pilot sites — veteran-serving organizations, recovery programs, schools, and nonprofits. Pilot pricing is available.
