The title of the book came from a sculpture by Yoko Ono, and is very fitting to this subject. The author, Thom Poole, came across the sculpture on a visit to a wet and cold Budapest, Hungary in 2005, where the best places to escape the cold and damp were the art museums. With this inspiration, the title and imagery for the book and website came about.
The book itself was born from a dissertation Thom undertook as part of his MSc in Marketing for the University of Glamorgan. He wrote his thesis on Data Privacy - the marketing art of the opt-in. As a result of this work, Thom was drawn to the element of Trust, especially within his area of expertise, namely digital marketing.
