About Hellobook -

.... As i anticipated the little virtual book was a flawlessly executed graphic, with a perfect crisp sound when you flipped the pages... initially i was disappointed at the small size of the book, but was pleasently surprised when i realized that its content often transcended these limitations i found myself not giving the textual bits of wisdom their proper attention rather i became curious as to how big this book was... when you pick up a book & open it, your brain instantly calculates thedepth of its content fromthe thickness, the weight, & the size of the type... kyeong Il's book offers no clues... i was pleasently surprised by the animations & the sounds, the experiancewas subliminal& amusing, yet... how much was in it became an obsession. suddenly the cover closed with a little thud & faded to black in silence a profound sense of loss overcame me i sat looking at the black screen in sadness wishing that i had taken the time to understand. the intensity of the loss was so strong...that i am torn between wanting to re-experience the book or savoring the impact of my experience. _________________from HELL

Statement -

virtual book on web -
We look at it and do not see it; Its name is the invisible.
We listen to it and do not hear it; Its name is the inaudible.
We touch it and do not find it; Its name is the Subtle (formless).
These three cannot be further probed, and hence merge into one . . .
Infinite and boundless,
it cannot be given any name; It reverts to nothingness.
This is called shape without shape, form without object.
It is the vague and elusive. Meet it and you will not see its head.
Follow it and you will not see its back.
