SPECULATIVE RUINS - RUINS OF SPECULATION: The time has come for the participative transformation of Frankfurt's banking district into the ‘FRANKFURT NEW DELPHI HERITAGE THEME PARK™’.
Come along and shape the future of the Frankfurt financial centre, decide on the future location of the rubble and ruins and let the FAFÜ250+ guide robot already guide you through the remains of the global financial system! With your help, the world's first and only ‘FRANKFURT NEW DELPHI HERITAGE THEME PARK’ will soon be created here.
Together, we are laying the foundations for Frankfurt's banking district as the cultural heritage landscape of the future and are already planning the ruins for the day after tomorrow: romantic paths will soon wind their way along the historic ramparts through the debris of former high-rise buildings. Enjoy more sunshine and more fairness here in the future, which will no longer disappear in the shadows of the financial sector and no longer hide behind a promise of transparency that has always merely served as an alibi for completely opaque business practices. Get an insight into the past world of the speculative era and find out how it will have come to an end. We ask you for your understanding and patience during the participatory demolition work that now lies ahead of us as part of the Future Heritage project.
Yours cincerely, PARA
