Hello.  I am trying to develop fresh ideas for the future of multimedia. 
Most of the major multimedia products currently being released seem to
follow the sure-thing strategy: encyclopedias, phone books, games... 
Well, I want to try something totally different, but I am not sure how
people will react.  If you could please fill out the following brief
questions and return them, I will be glad to send you a free selection of
poetry (just do not change the line below).  Thanks for your help.  Wish
me luck...

                     - hit "r" to respond in most cases -

                IMAGINE
                the lyrical beauty of
                               poetry
                               enhanced
                with trance
                               inducing
                               music.

      We are working with prominent American poets and musicians to create a
      true multimedia experience.  In one package, we will combine:

                     A BOOK of poems by seven top poets
                     A CD of poetry and ambient music combined by
                     professional DJ's, which will double as a
                     CD-ROM containing informative interviews with the
                     poets and musicians
                            AND video clips of the authors and
                            musicians creating the sounds
                            AND a screen saver that displays
                            patterns and words as the soundtrack plays
