Abstract
Relevance is not always obvious. We have to investigate the unseen and talk about the unknown. Our insights from the outside come from listening to stories within our field. Synergy among the disciplines we think we constitute is always necessary, though hard to achieve. Let us ask questions for which we do not yet have an answer. We have to see what is going on beyond the standard, everywhere, in particular at places we do not consider to be central. Here we will connect to people, places, events, and much more.
