Participative Tabletop game
Cartographers have a special relationship with maps. We don’t just use them to understand the world — we love creating them, too. We choose what to show, what to emphasise, how to connect things, and how to imagine places in new ways.
So, what if we put that creativity to work and build our own vision of Brno?
Near the F1 room, you’ll find a 3D terrain model of Brno and its surroundings, ready to be transformed. Pick a wooden hexagon from your conference bag, grab a marker, and add something you would like to see in the landscape of the future. A park? A cycle path? A new landmark? A wild idea that probably wouldn’t make it into a planning document? There are no wrong answers.
This is a collaborative map, and everyone is invited to contribute. Whether you are a professional cartographer, a GIS enthusiast, a researcher, a student, or simply someone with an idea for a better place. You don’t need to know Brno. You just need a little imagination.
Place your hexagon next to someone else’s and watch the map grow throughout the conference. One small contribution becomes part of something bigger.
Dajana Snopková et al. carefully crafted the 3D terrain model and painted and packed the hexagons in your conference bag. She is waiting to see your creations!
