This study is an examination of my process of thinking, learning, creating, and teaching in the digital arts. Through literature references, journal entries, and an interview with a female colleague I investigate three questions that have risen from my practice. With the first question I examine my processes of creating, learning and teaching in the digital arts relating it to ideas from the literature such as bricolage, cyberception, cyberspace, flow, and multiple intelligences. In the second question, I explore my relationship to technology through the context of gender and how this influences my practice. Finally, in the third question I explore the ideas covered in the first two questions by relating them to my teaching practice. It is a personal reflection on how the process and context of working in digital media impacts my creative and teaching practice.*  *This dissertation is a compound document (contains both a paper copy and a CD as part of the dissertation)
