Let us take you on a journey – a journey to a faraway land where creativity and community reign above all else, a place where a gift is priceless and money worthless, a place where people want for nothing, because everyone brings something.

Once upon a time in this place there was a village, its foundation made entirely of dreams. At the heart of the village there was a Bug. Although the villagers tried to resist, the Bug infected every one of them – their attempts to burn her only spread the Bug further, planting a seed in the hearts of all who witnessed it.

Before long the village grew into a town, and dreams gave way to reality. Civic institutions sprang up, quarried from the mountains of effort that surrounded their little community. But still the Bug plagued the town. Each year she would return stronger than the last, spreading the seeds of creativity anew and keeping a watchful eye over the town.

Eventually they turned to celebration – the citizens came to understand that the Bug’s arrival heralded another healthy harvest: They sowed ideas, they fertilised with love, and they reaped the reward of art, self-expression, and the sheer joy of immediate experience.

Now the town was a city, thronged with artisans dedicated to their task. A place of culture and renown, her influence felt far an wide. The citizens, proud of their name, stopped at nothing to spread their culture, and their queen – The Bug – well she just kept on burning.
