The book Mass Transit Muse is a 5D Story. It merges 1. book, 2. film (Mass Transit Shorts),
3. music (music-book), 4. live performance (stage-play), and 5. immersive experience (public transit performances) to tell the story of a rider moved from disconnection to community.

“The highest-paid person in the first half of this century will be the storyteller. All professionals, including advertisers, teachers, entrepreneurs, politicians, athletes and religious leaders, will be valued for their ability to create stories that will captivate their audiences."

- Thomas Berry, Theologian, Philosopher, and Cultural Historian
