My first creative endeavor produced the digi-tome, a new technology that enables artists of any medium and ability to borrow from one or all traditional media: visual, auditory, performance or literary to create new dimensions of entertainment and/or educational combinations consisting of and exclusive to the Internet. Tome, a synonym for book, especially one made of volumes, seemed the perfect name for this technology. Not a book, not a CD, not just performance, and not just a blog or site, but related volumes consisting of various media combinations. These combinations are endless and the potential to express and create for the whole world unlimited. The Internet provides capability beyond what we previously imagined for individual creativity. A digi-tome product can be exclusive to only the artists website, blog or blogs.

I didn't want to create something traditional and I knew I definitely did not want to create a $59.99 e-book full of blah, blah blah or a stagnant e-book at any price. I don't have the patience or focus capability to write endless chapters when I can express with less, more effective words that entertain and educate humorously and truthfully. Also, I despise the idea of Internet marketing in which you have to scroll for forty-five minutes soaring by testimony after testimony as to why you should buy an e-book or any other product. I firmly believe, in our digital age, we as artist and/or audience, should not be limited to traditional rules, constraints and closed doors. Why create or teach a stagnate story, composition or lesson when a dynamic one can exist?

From teaching, I found that most people learn and respond better with change of voice, truth, exuberance and they especially react to music. This first digi-tome format mixes the structure of music CD's and traditional books. This was the combination that worked for the story and one I could afford, however the possibilities and capabilities (software, blogs, music, visual, etc.) of digi-tome's offer new potential of artistic expression as varied as the individual and world.
