The name of the book series refer to the combination of "'''Kemo'''no" and "'''Tech'''nology" -- the overarching theme referring to interaction between furries and technology. Kemono actually refers to "eastern furry", but can be interpreted as "foreign" style, meaning furry styles that are different from the usual. Technology refers to any sort of man-made object that the furry characters have to interact with. As an example, it could be anything from simple items (computers, cars, etc) to themes (sci-fi, weapons, etc). This is just the general theme; for each book issue a more specific theme is determined.

''Hello, I'm Paru, an artist/producer/lotsa-things and love to make things! You can check out my art and books at [https://kemono.se my website] to get an overview of what I do. I like to work together on collaborative projects and am thus interested in leading this kind of project once again. I have previously produced two collaboration books together with up to 22 participants and successfully broke even (with more than double). I handled the management, book design and printing and have sold to American, European and Japanese audiences.''
