 ==== Resilients in review: a diversity of practices ====
-This page is an overview of the featured chronicles of the Resilients team. Spanning several countries, two continents, numerous roads, paths, rivers, canals, and living labs, the wide geographical spread of the Resilients' activities is mirrored in the diversity of their practices. From biking, hiking and boating to growing, gardening and future-building -- in all cases they have sought to step beyond the bounds of theoretical debate to explore and embed resilient cultures in concrete practice.
+This page is an overview of the featured chronicles of the Resilients team. Resilients transform the concept of resilience into concrete practice as intentional voyages, experimental situations and real-life labs. Spanning several countries and numerous roads, paths, rivers, canals and gardens, the wide geographical spread of the Resilients' activities is mirrored in the diversity of their approaches. From biking, hiking and boating to growing, gardening and future-building -- in all cases they seek to step beyond the bounds of theoretical debate to explore and embed cultural resilience in creative action.

 [[Edible Alchemy]] by Carole Collet and Bartaku discusses resilience and adaptation in relation to the properties of two intriguing plants -- flax and Aronia -- and how these were used in Temporary photoElectric Digestopians (TpED), a series of co-creation worklabs, and the Edible Alchemy Aperolab. [[Resilience Thinking DIY]] was an exercise held at Central Saint Martin's College and summarised here to encourage readers to practice resilient thinking in design. [[A Leaky Loop]] by Bartaku narrates the kind of intimate and bizarre experience you can expect as a TpED creator and tester, while [[Silients]] is a fragmentary meditation on a peculiar variation of “resilients.”
-In [[the pollinators review|The Pollinators]], nadine review the meaning and implications of reviving modes of cultural travel where the journey is the destination, as an antidote both for tourism and the utilitarian obsession with getting from A to B in the shortest time and space.
+In [[the pollinators review|The Pollinators]], nadine review the meaning and implications of reviving modes of cultural travel where the journey is the destination, as an antidote both for tourism and the utilitarian obsession with getting from A to B in the shortest time and space. nadine pursues several other interventions in the urban microcosm in [[Wastl]], an experiment in urban gardening techniques and community building, while exploring "slow mobility" with the [[Buratinas]] solar-powered boat project and tapping into participants' "creative DNA" through situationist interventions in [[being boucalais 1|Being Boucalais 1(i)]].
-In connection with the Unmanned Resilience case study, Uroš Veber interviewed Helena Krapež, the owner of an excursion farm on the Gora plateau in western Slovenia. [[bake your own|If you can’t pay for a loaf, go bake your own]] is a fascinating ethnographic glimpse into the state of farming in this region, and by extension, the changes and upheavals taking place in wider society -- not to mention the resourcefulness of one woman in challenging circumstances.

-Exploring methods of prototyping possible futures, Anna Maria Orru and David Relan discuss their scenario building toolkit in [[scenario symphony|Composing a Scenario Symphony]]. This approach draws on a combination of Lance Gunderson and C. S. Holling’s panarchy systems model outlined in [[From Pan To Panarchy]], and the idea of [[temporal model|The Temporal Model in Future Scenario Building]]. Maja Kuzmanovic builds and reflects on these foundations in the [[Prehearsal Pocket Guide]] a recipe for designing and performing prehearsals, and [[Prehearsing the Future]], a sustained examination and roundup of FoAM's own ventures in future preparedness.
