Focus history

• Get a deeper insight into the dimension of time.
• If you want to find out about future go to the past: two steps back allow one step ahead.
• What do you find at historic locations, what artefacts are there and what ideas do exist?
• Immersing yourself in the places and ideas of history with a modern eye keeps the past and the future connected.

 

Ask for survived traditions to find out about the future possibilities of resiliency.

 

• Read the street names very carefully, what story do they tell? Why is a squares name that important that it gave his name to the location?
• Check ancient maps to dig deeper where you stand.
• What can you find in books? What tells the museums? What story tell you social media? Dig deeper than just googling – this is what everybody finds – dig even more to find YOUR story.

 

Link your impression to the history of the very location to get a real story.
