THE PERFORMANCE
The adapters will set up their station in a lively public space, in a square o along a street. The station is composed of a semi transparent geodesic dome and a barometric antenna.

To write the Adaptation Manual, the adapters will engage with the audience in a common experience.
Each afternoon, 3 or 4 generations will follow one another at regular intervals. Each generations will be introduced to the climate of its time (starting in 2050, 2100, 2150, ...) and will live 50 years in 50 minutes.

The barometric antenna will be the beginning of the experience: small groups of 15 people will be invited to a short visit of the city of the future. The simulation of climate change will be achieved through climascope and the voice of a guide, which will transform the urban landscape
These tours will lead to a collective adaptation design session. They will choose a building, or a natural element of public space that will be the starting point of their community to navigate the next 50 years. Each participant will be encouraged to create a role in this world in construction.

The 15 participants will access the geodesic dome to be projected into the future: a clock will make clear the progression of time, with a minute equal to one year.
Here, they will be autonomous and will be able to call (or be called by) the Adapters. The y will at first discovery a message left by the previous generation who will update them about what has happened in the previous 50 years. Starting from this message, and from sudden complications of climatic and social nature communicated by the Adapters, the participants will have to ask themselves :
What do they really want to keep and how?

What shall they abandon not to worsen the situation?
What can they invent or adapt to help the situation?

An Adapter will draw and write on the surface of the dome to represent the choices and the inventions of the current generation. The rest of the audience outside the dome will have a partial access to what happens inside: they will be able to see the drawings on the semitransparent surfaces, spy the participants through the dome, listen to the conversations that will be re-transmitted next to the antenna.
When the 50 minutes will be over and the participants will exit the dome, the new generation will access it. Outside the dome, the previous 15 participants will be accompanied by an Adapter to a decompressing ritual during which they will be able to take a distance and question their experience
