Dumpling is a way to express your imagination with 3D blocks. Children get to make and create all day with crayons, blocks, and other instruments of personal expression. Adults not so much.

When you make something, like Pikachu or Ironman, you can share "recipes" with others and empower them to reproduce your creations. Much like chefs who transfer culinary skills through recipes, Dumpling creators can help less artistic people feel the joy of creativity.

Inspired by Minecraft and LEGOs, the concept is to let anyone exercise creativity on the go, either guided by a recipe or working from scratch.

We believe everyone enjoys turning nothing into something, and would make more with the right encouragement and with the right tools. The smartphone makes this possible. As computer chips grow in power and speed, pixels on screen will someday become as impressive as paint on paper.

Funnily Asked Questions
=================================

Q: If your homeboy Confucius were alive today, would he still be a philosopher?

A: Nope. Not practical. Then what ... poet? Physicist? Reality TV star? All reasonable guesses, but all wrong. Confucius would be a rapper.

He would be the Chinese version of Biggie. Think about it. Confucius naturally meets many rapper prerequisities: tons of groupies (they were called concubines in his time); poor English grammar; excessive jewelry; and, of course, inspires people with words. All he needs are a few gold teeth, a pimped out ride, and a stupid-smart name like con.fu.zius. Instant stardom.

Q: We dislike the cliche, "as easy as taking candy from a baby." Your thoughts?

A: Were not fans, either. First, its wrong to take candy from a baby. More importantly, its stupid. Babies are always surrounded by adults -- and usually overly protective parents.

Taking candy from a baby is not easy. Its hard. Really hard. We know because we have tried many times. In the park. In the supermarket. In the mall.

The moment you grab the candy, the baby will start crying. Adults rush you and start getting judgmental about your character and maybe your parents character, too. Acting all self-righteous like they have never mugged babies before. Instead of babies, we advise taking candy from retirees. Specifically ones leaving Dennys since they may have food coma (and potentially stomach cramps if they ordered the "fresh" salmon special).

Q: Chinese kids are cute, but whatupyo with rice bowl haircuts?

A: The ugly haircuts are about promoting harmony, underscoring how everything in Chinese culture revolves around the family unit.

Rice bowl haircuts are like frat hazing -- but for families. The humiliating experience is designed to bond siblings together and with their parents. To foster unbreakable relationships that withstand hardships like famine, Dads bathroom bombs, and Facebook outages.

The flip side is not every child advances beyond hazing. Much like a frat, only the best pledges move on. The weaker ones are shipped to Foxconn for a lifetime of iPhone assembly. When someone from China claims to have two kids, it technically means two children have passed initiation while others may be in trials. To demonstrate your mastery of Chinese culture, next time you see Chinese parents, ask them, "How many children do you have?" Then follow up with, "Marvelous. And how many are in trials?"
