)i( Mush
the Book
Basically, Mush
the book is nothing but a bunch of emails which is an
account of how two people met without ever having met. Deb from Australia,
Mik from Denmark. But it is also an account of a personal revelation.
Neither of us had ever realised that words alone, words scribbled quickly
in emails and chats, and sent to a pen pal on the other side of the
globe, could build themselves up to something which were to become a
beautiful and inspiring land of our dreams and fantasies, Mush
an imaginary place which turned out to have a powerful effect in our
real lives as well.
Mush the book passes on the experience
that life in cyberspace can enhance the quality of our lives in the
real world if we only are able to use and explore the potential of this
new tool that communication technology has given us. In particular:
its potential for dreaming with open eyes.
The message of Mush is simple: even if you are a realistic, humble and
modest person, that shouldnt keep you from dreaming big dreams.
As such, it is one of our modest dreams that this book would
become the flap of a butterfly that started spreading out this message,
eventually causing a friendly tornado, saying:
Yes to dreaming with open eyes.
Yes to the internet.
Yes to writing, playing, expressing your inner self, sharing with someone
in a virtual world.
To let creativity loose, and to have no fear.

A message that ticked in on Miks mobile from Deb.

WHAT
IS )i(
|
In our communication over the net, chat and sms, )i( means Mush.
The sign looks like a butterfly, and the butterfly happens to have
become a kind of logo of Mush. It all started with a flap of a butterfly...
You know, the kind of butterfly which can flap its wings and start
a tornado. |
