During this evening:
Part I
One Minute before 12: Understanding The Global Model
Human civilisation has reached the most critical watershed period in its entire history so far. We refer to this period, 2010 – 2050, as the Consequence Era. It is the era where we must deal with the consequences of unresolved inter-society relations, misguided technological development, hyper-militarization of the world, and a dangerous neglect, to manage environment and vital resources in a long-term perspective. Given, that money and monetary instruments have become an artificial resource, especially in the past 300 years, this consequence also includes the results of our ill-designed global monetary system. Money all by itself, and how it is implemented into society, has created a severe scarcity that actually prevents nearly all natural problems to be solved, but promotes global conflict in a near fully globalized world. It is therefore especially important to look at the economic conditions and transitions, in order to understand the prospect to solve any other hard problems in the future, arising from the management of resources and production of vital supplies.

The study model was built by Schloer Consulting Group – SCG in about 4 years of extensive research, extracted from 10,000s of pages of published research materials, real-time data sources, and 100s of terabytes of global legacy computer data, provided by governments, global organizations (UN, World-Bank, IMF, etc.) and various free data sources provided through universities in the US, UK and Germany.

Part II & III
Socratic Dialogue
The Socratic Dialogue is an approach that focus on the question: what is the right question to start with? It is a philosophical method in the sense that all assumptions we take for granted, can be questioned and investigated. Unlike most discussions we do not debate, we try to listen to one another. It means that in any approach, if we listen well, there can be some important hint for fruitful approaches. To get our minds out of coagulated, fixed lanes we need connection with other minds. Socratic Dialogue is the strongest tool to boost real collaborative thinking and to twist our cultural assumptions into new common moulded perspectives.

It is a method that avoids abstract ways of thinking; generalized abstract reasoning could probably be considered as an intellectual phallacy (John Dewey). Socratic Dialogue starts from concrete person based experiences, where values, emotions and ideas are all considered important. Every person embodies the cultural values and assumptions – this is why a personal experience can deliver general importance.

We will maybe just formulate the right question, but anyway we will experience how it is to think as communities.

Humberto Schwab uses this method to create new strategies for business, for innovative processes and for general think tanks.

Vyjayanthi Iyer


I am Vyjayanthi Iyer, a model, actress, dancer and choreographer from Mumbai, India. I have been a resident of Amsterdam for 6 years, and enjoyed every bit of the multicultural, vibrant, free-spirited life it offers. I have also worked as a customer relationship professional for over 10 years and experienced rich interactions with people from different cultures and countries.

I started Bollywood dancing lessons in Amsterdam for a small group of people I knew, as an experiment to stay in touch with my artistic side, to move out of my comfort zone, to learn and grow further as an individual. In the last 2 years, my passion for dance has expanded into conducting workshops for groups and companies, fitness classes and for special occasions like bachelor parties.

Bollywood dancing is lively, it is fun, exciting and the one thing I have never failed to notice is the smile it brings to the faces of people who participate in my workshops. I look forward to taking this endeavour further to exchanging knowledge about Indian culture and take Bollywood dance moves to more people in the Netherlands and beyond.

Stefan Lehner


Recycling Designer, En-Fer

Stefan Lehner (1957) studied Philosophy and Mathematics in Fribourg, Switzerland.
During these studies, he started to develop chairs and tables based on a 4-dimensional mathematical structure – hypercube – and won a first prize in an Art and Design contest in Switzerland in 1986.

Fascinated by industrial scrap objects, he constructed beds, chairs, benches and lamps under the theme of “Object and Function Recycling”. First prize for a long chair made out of transport chains at Plum’art.

Another approach was made through a publicity project for Chesterfield. Collecting old cans, he produced 1000 Recycling ashtrays for trendy locations. These ashtrays were conceived to be stolen.

For Interior projects, he worked with car seats from Porsche and with airplane benches. Later followed the development of lamps, vases and racks by giving a second life to defect lamp bulbs and used shoeboxes.

Inspired by “Street Design” in Brazil, he is also working with PET bottles and drink packaging. He started a collection of amazing recycling objects from all over the world.
He aims to combine ecological claims, reuse of former functions, comfort and fashion. His atelier and showroom are now in Utrecht.
