Spread the Aloha
The Aloha Epithet
Everywhere I go, I give these alohas away at random, mostly to where ever I am eating, getting groceries, at stores. or at Kaiser Permanente, Honolulu. I like to think I'm spreading aloha when I give away these tokens. It suggests love, peace, happiness, all that encompasses the meaning of aloha. They're subliminal suggestive epithets.
A subliminal suggestive epithet is a reminiscence memory tool. The significance of this is that when you see the word in this form, it will remind you of something. First, it will probably remind you of me giving it to you and telling you, that this is my way of spreading aloha. Then, you will think of what aloha means to you, and hopefully, you will reciprocate the gesture and spread the love.
These Aloha tokens are made from 3D-printed ABS plastic.
