BANSHOOO AND THE UNSEEN WORLD:
A Journey to the Threshold of Perception


A fantastical fable with an environmental twist.

How do we invite respect for the beautiful complexities of the natural world? One way is to show the extraordinary behind the ordinary, to reveal the astonishing, even bizarre details that govern our world. More incredible than science fiction and as enthralling as the most captivating computer game, the natural world is full of magical things waiting for us to discover them in all their weird wonder.

Whether it’s the speech of a world leader broadcast to millions or your own sweet self reading in a quiet room, writing creates our shared reality.

It makes ideas visible, envisions the future and explains the past. It shapes our thinking and provokes change. We learn and grow.

Writing comforts us and keeps us. It makes us laugh, it holds our history, gives voice to that which was hidden, and reminds us of the possibility that we could be happy and good.

The potential of human consciousness is vast and promising. Despite the mess we’ve made of things so far, we might still fulfill that potential. In all the languages, in all the races, in all the cultures, in all the worlds, we hold the same hope for this redemption – It Is Written.
