A name almost as mysterious as the
creatures it describes. Imagine being so strange that nobody is sure
what you actually are. This is the fate of the NamaKo, the misunderstood
marine creatures that swarm the ocean floors. The unconventional aesthetics of these
creatures often leads them to be shunned and overlooked, people don't
recognise their underlying brilliance. They are vital for sustaining the
ecological systems of the ocean, and when eaten they have anti-aging
properties and are strong anti-oxidants.
The NamaKo may be ugly, it may just be
one of millions, but it does it's own little bit of good in the world,
and we think this deserves to be recognised.
The Japanese get it.
The NamaKo has been the focus of many Haikus in Japanese culture, which point
out the power, chaos and ferocity of the NamaKo which so often go unnoticed.
They also use NamaKo as the name for a hand guard on a sword: even Samurais recognise
the power of the name.
The NamaKo is all of us
The NamaKo is
our symbol, it encompasses everything we stand for; power, mystery and
understated brilliance. If you can relate to the desire to shine amongst the
masses, then follow us and become a NamaKo Warrior.
