MOMOTOs PHILOSOPHY
Embrace the apparent contradiction
Embrace the apparent contradiction between the old universe and new. The outer and inner worlds. Momotons treasure the knowledge of the past and look to the future. They seek to hold on to their spirit, humour and creativity without being destroyed by the encroaching darkness. Influenced by the traditions of the past and the punk spirit of innovation. The have the courage and clarity of a zen monk and the crazy unbridled creativity of a punk.
MOMOTOs STORY
Neo London some time in the future.
Greed, fear and the pursuit of power, have reeked havoc on the globe. Environmental disaster, wars, extreme technological advance, the bifurcation of society have left the world ravaged and divided. Colonies on the Moon and Mars have now had several successive generations. Alien civilisations have started to reach through wormholes at the edge of the galaxy. Will mankind destroy itself in the will to power, be destroyed by calamity and invasive forces or expand through the universe in the search for knowledge and the beyond.
Momoto Korin is a young boy who is thrown into a family crisis. He and his friends then unwillingly find themselves in a conflict beyond their imagination.

A Momoto Korin adventure
The Sea And Stars is a children's book for both young children and adults. It is a story of courage in the face of fear and transformation. It is Momoto Korin's first adventure.
The story encompasses the poles of experience; from a sense of awe, connection and freedom experienced in many ways through childhood, nature and creativity; to the feeling of constriction and fear experienced in danger and difficult circumstances. It is about courage in the face of fear and transformation.
Nobody or thing can take the ‘stars and sea inside of you’ even if you’ve forgotten or are lost; however you define that. Challenge with the right orientation helps us to deepen that connection. This is for all those who know this or have forgotten and hear the whisper of the universe calling.
PEACH STAR
Peach star. The peach mythology dates back to the peach of immortality in Chinese mythology. Is the Peach Star a fruit, the spirit within, a location in the universe, or a map of hidden knowledge.
