About this ebook
For artists, writers, designers, and architects, Zen Brush Tao Words demonstrates the struggle and resolution of bringing together inter-media and new electronic multimedia in an age where the traditional must blend with the modern.
Leonardo Da Vince struggled with knowledge through vision at an early age. He perfected his method through his experiments, his art, and his notebooks.
Miyamoto Musashi was Japans greatest swordsman. Through great struggle, he perfected a form of strategy and won every match. Later, he wrote The Book of Five Rings, which became the bible of Japanese business strategy.
As a boy, Thomas Alva Edison struggled with the Amateur Scientist experiments in Scientific American magazine. Later, his inventions flowed from him like electricity flows along a wire.
Walt Disney struggled with the complex movie Fantasia, with its many facets, and later invented the interdisciplinary Disneyland concept, where bits and pieces formed a whole new world.
After struggling with the complexities of two masters degrees, Gene Porter discovered the simplicity of Zen in the Sumi-e brush and ink style. He then condensed the Taoist poems of the Tao Te Ching, It was after this struggle that his ideas began to flowsimply and naturally.
