A two-way conversation with a personal God in our three-dimensional world, who listens to or answers us from a four- or n-dimensional space.

When publishing houses in the “fine” city of Singapore give their oft-half-baked editorial staff and their semi-inept bosses an ultimatum: commit to high-quality publishing (with limited or quasi-zero resources) and willingness to go the extra (second) mile and helping the company to achieve exponential profitability.
