In this Salon, organized jointly by CREATE and the Amsterdam Time Machine (ATM), we discuss how historical knowledge about the management of urban challenges in the past is a potential source of inspiration to design sustainable solutions for the future. We do so with Boudewijn Koopmans from the Amsterdam Time Machine, Indira van ‘t Klooster from Arcam (Architecture Center Amsterdam), Wietse Balster from 3DAmsterdam, and Clemens Beck from the Friedrich Schiller University (FSU) of Jena. These partners have collaborated at the pilot project ‘Living with water in Amsterdam’, which aims to collect, analyze, and visualize historical data on water in the city. The project has materialised in an exhibition at Arcam showcasing interactive installations of the past, present, and future of Amsterdam’s relation with water in the Kattenburg area. The FSU Jena has made available a semi-automated pipeline and a prototype VR application to visualize historical image-based reconstructions of disappeared buildings.
