A long time coming
The idea or concept of Ylem's Ink began at Kent State University in the Fall of 1994
In the Fall of 1994 as a young English major I sat in 7 Ideas that Shook the Universe at Kent State University. The lecture that day mentioned the Ylem hypothetical. I imagined being able to dip a pen into a pool of cosmic ink that was about to explode into eternal everything.
The walk back to Apple Hall among the freshman dorms was a haul. I dreamt of someday starting a creative studio named Ylem’s Ink as I passed black squirrels and yellow jackets. The dream probably would have drifted away except I created my first email address soon after. In the 90s, your email address was supposed to conceal your identity. I chose ylempoint. I figured no one else in the world would think of ylempoint, my dream of the exact spot the Ylem popped and the Big Bang exploded.
Years later
In July of 2026 I created the Ylem’s Ink website to share my art. I have been creating digital art in the form of comic strips, cartoons, music and mobile games since 1999. Most of this has been shared over the years on various websites.
Ylem’s Ink is a culmination of my artistic and technological creations.
Why?
I want to share. Or perhaps ego. I am proud of my creations. I was raised to believe that a website was a cool thing.
