KASAO Atsushi(communication based artist) presents.
Guruguru is a son of a chieftain of Musubimekun tribe.
Musubimekun is the little pretty Tsukumogami.
Tsukumogami are "Artifact-spirits" that are tools
which have become sentient after a long period of time.
Tsukumogami had been tools created by human,
so they have been loving human being.
On the other side, they are created with natural materials,
so they loves nature very much.
nowadays the human have come to be too arrogant
not to give enough respect to Nature.
this annoyed Musubimekun too much.
One day one of Musubimekun Guruguru
have stood up to say something to human.
Also other Musubimetuns stood up and followed Guruguru.
This Musubimekuns troops has become called as
"Musubimekun Demonstration March".
To save the nature, many Musubimekuns are needed.
So, I want you to make your Musubimekun and the message card to human that he needs to hold. Then, let him join the Musubimekun's activity to save the nature around you!!

1 your Musubimekun's name,
