Photo day for Creative Systemic Research Platform, first as the whole team, and then with smaller groups for images that might be used in digital enhancement. Scheduled in a small overlap of travel schedules with people coming in and out of town. In a design school, there's a professional photography studio, and multiple professional photographers, resources to which I'm unaccustomed.

Lecturing on "Systems Changes: Culture and family over time" in innovation class for high school students. Reviewed my family history from my grandfather through to our sons, to illustrate marriage systems, family systems, and education systems. Teams then asked to think about activities that grandparents would have done that aren't done today; the systems in which those prior behaviours would have been natural; and changes in today's systems to enable those behaviours again. Underscored behavioural and ecological approaches to students, by suggesting a few members might want to visit other tables to gain intelligence.

Shikumen (stone warehouse gate) transformed into a warren of alleys with shops, food stalls and restaurants.
