What is tiki? - General Tiki

Nearly everything I see on here is pointed at nostalgia, which is lovely, but no one should be threatened by the occasional inclusion of the present. We are, afterall, alive in the here and now. Many are creating their own art, drinks, music, clothing, and decor that is an homage to the past, but not mired in it. It's a beautiful thing and takes nothing away from the golden age of the Polynesian Palaces of yore.
