The world today offers unprecedented opportunities for collaboration and co-creation as people across the globe share their views, feelings and personalities online. Now Bungalow Publishing, a specialty publishing house, is tapping this potential to involve people worldwide in a monumental off-line expression of human creativity: the Michael Jackson Book Monument.
For the first time ever, fans will have the opportunity to co-create “a unique monument of historic proportions” to MichaelJackson and his impact on their lives in a personalized work of art celebrating the legendary performer.
The Monument consists of a strictly limited edition of 5,000 copies of a bible-like book, each copy containing 1,000 stories by fans on the impact of Michael’s music and personality on their lives. Each numbered book will feature a cover portrait ofMichael created from over 3,000 Swarovski crystals. Each will come with two cases, one made of stone and one made of walnut, which together create a unique way to exhibit the book, as well as a specially designed and numbered MJ medal. In addition to the limited edition, Bungalow Publishing will offer regular editions available to everyone.
All Michael Jackson fans will have a chance to participate through a contest Bungalow Publishing has launched.
Sign up, create an account and log in.
Write your personal story to Michael. Save it, preview what it would look like on a page from the book, and share it on Facebook – all at no charge.
Submit your story for $10 USD to be entered in the contest to win one of 1,000 chances to have your story published on a page in both the regular and limited edition of the monument (both editions feature the 1,000 winning stories).
Story submissions must be in English. The 1,000 winners will be chosen by judges selected by Bungalow Publishing.
This sounds a bit like those poetry books where you end up paying dearly to see your writing in print along with hundreds of other people.
