    feedback

    • more surveys, but only for inspiration (e.g. just focussing on cleaners/moms/…) => differences in what people are angry about => generational differences => age!

    • connection between tattoo, leather and rage is enough => it should not be about the pattern/what is on the leather, but about the medium itself => how deep? …
    • permanence => branding?

    “Learning Under the Stars” promotes nature-based and experiential learning for students of the ILB (Integrative Learning Workshop Brigittenau).

    Our aim is to reconnect children with the local flora and fauna and provide them with fundamental experiences in nature. Through hands-on, process-oriented projects, students learn to take responsibility and develop their social skills.
