Welcome to Te Ao Hōhonu - The Deep World - A home for deep thinkers, wayward souls and those who want to explore music, art, philosophy and the wonders of life - in manageable doses.
Hōhonu was created as a way of sharing my love of critical thinking in creative spaces, in a way which works for people like me - people with limited time and attention.
Think small, delicious bites of deep, emotional and critical thinking for the everyday ponderer. Hōhonu seeks to bring a touch of academic rigour to your everyday musings.
I'm so glad you're here. Take a look and let me know what you think.
