FAQ
WHO IS HENK MUNI?
I write under the nom de plume, Henk Muni. Here is the origin of this name:
When I was a young boy, I harassed my siblings incessantly and thus one particular day my favourite uncle, Oom Piet, called out to me in Afrikaans: “Henkeman, Henkeman moenie!” Translation: Henkeman don’t! My dad caught this on camera hence the nickname stuck. The original sound track is in the gallery. Abbreviated it became Henk Muni meaning "Henk Don’t" , epitomizing one of the themes in See-saw: There are many “Don’t” crossroads of life, but what if you DID?
In the Sanskrit Hindu culture a Muni is a thoughtful teacher, thinker or philosopher that has a different or unique opinion.
