The Twisted Mind balloon instructional CD-ROM is finally available — and there is lots of cool stuff on it.
Want to know what's on it and how the instructions are written? Two sample chapters straight from the CD-ROM can be viewed right here on this site. Both are prime examples of what's on the CD: intricate sculptures that really bring out the artist in you, and fast sculptures perfect for performances.
Free for everyone — since 2025
In 2025, more than two decades after this CD-ROM was first published, it was decided to make the full contents freely available online for everyone to enjoy. The balloon art community has always been generous with knowledge — this felt like the right thing to do. All instructions, photos and mini-movies are here, free of charge, for anyone who loves balloons.
"I was fortunate enough to meet you at TJam '01 in Texas and purchased your CD-ROM from T Myer's store. As it is my first balloon CD-ROM, I wasn't sure what to expect. It is wonderful! The figures are creative, the instructions are clear and the mini-movies give great detail to the descriptions. I am sure to adapt many of these figures to my repertoire. Thank you for creating a fantastic tool that will certainly spur my imagination to create many wonderful creatures."— Tad James
