Culture is cultivated over a long period of time, but loss is instantaneous, and once lost, it is irretrievable. The same goes for the natural environment. While taking the past few decades, when awareness of environmental issues has increased, as a good precedent case, we grasp culture as the common capital of humanity and think together with researchers and performers about how to connect it to the future.
