This project is an experiment. A4all workshops are designed to facilitate communication, to create an environment where participants work together and collaborate rather than competing with one another. 
I’d like to call this part of the project a “visualization of public assembly”
Here are some pics from previous events, in Iceland, Cuba, Germany, Ukraine, Russia and Slovakia, where groups (sometimes of children, sometimes adults) got together to collectively design a Future City, Future School, or Future Country, in the process reworking and reinventing both broader futures, and the past.

    “WHAT IS NATION?” project-travel through many cities in Iceland, prepared by ELFA LILJA GÍSLADÓTTIR and realized by me and KOLBEINN HUGI. This project was based on the book My country?, but also included exhibitions, lots of workshops with children, and a special form of collective painting, which I call “tablecloths.”
