The firm's Verbum Journal was an influential magazine for early digital artists and cyberculture aficionados, and Verbum Interactive, published mid-1991, was one of the first multimedia CD-ROMs. Producer of many instructional books/CD-ROMs for digital media professionals, Verbum has just completed its first consumer product, Peter Norton's PC Guru CD-ROM. Verbum has produced numerous events, including CyberArts International, the Imagine Exhibit of digital art, and the Annual Digital Be-In in San Francisco.
