Thank you for your presentation! It is clearly visible how much effort and research was put into it and that is super admirable. I’m immediately thinking of things and projects to share (like this talk that happened last year unfortunately, but maybe there’s more info about it somewhere)(and the collective varia which focuses on collective technologies, not in the way you approach it but might be really cool for you to talk with them). I can’t help but to think that maybe you stayed a little too much in the field of research and this very academic way of thinking and did not allow yourselves to also just have fun and seeing what comes if you shake off theory and start just doing and then reflecting on what happened. I might be wrong! But I would have liked to see a bit more lightness in the presentation (or in the aesthetics of your website and visual data). All in all, I am very impressed by what you have done and the information you have collected and it makes me curious to follow what will happen next! Good job!! Gabija

I really enjoyed your presentation. I think it is a super important topic to focus on, and it might not get the attention it should have. I realized I had never really thought about this, so was happy that through your presentation this got me thinking about these topics.
I liked the critical and elaborate focus on your process in the presentation. It was super good how you shared your difficulties and concerns, and what that had for consequences for the project. I feel like the direction you guys chose in the end, by trying to empower residents to reimagine their futures, is really nice!

I might be nice to check out these links: https://www.gesprekmetdestad.nl/nieuws &
https://www.veldacademie.nl/projecten/gesprek-met-de-stad. A research was done regarding the vision residents of Rotterdam had of the city in the future, through a lot of conversations. Maybe you could figure out what this was used for in the end, or learn from their approach.

I btw loved the illustration of the team at the end, super nicely done!

Interesting presentation! You did a lot of research on how to envisioned a future Rotterdam. However by doing you can also research and learn. If it would have translated in something "physical", I think it would have brought the team further. Nonetheless a nice topic which deserves further development. - Claire
