“Culture is a way of conceiving or knowing about existence, and therefore culture happens first and foremost in the way people think about themselves and relate to each other and their environment – a dynamic which is fundamentally intangible. Thus everything in culture has an intangible aspect whereas most of culture lacks any tangible aspect.” Ralph Regenvanu
