Rebekkah Werth, Megafauna & Amazing Power (Mr. Panda, 2006). 12 pages. mini-CDR Core Ogg & R. Werth.

The clip art reminds me of the dinosaur books I stockpiled as a kid; although each page features more "modern" creatures, like an elephant with a tusk coming out of both the lower and upper jaws. The visuals are secondary to Ms. Werth's texts. Occupying the bottom third of the page, the texts hold their own weight:

A crow. The last few persimmons at the top of the tree.
Someone's home office on the sidewalk.
A filing cabinet, a desk, a bookshelf.
It's time for a new year.

The accompanying CD is indy gold. Gold I tells ya. Seriously.
Werth deals with the visual, the sonic and text; this is a true intermedia endeavor.
