Picture this.

You are a railway worker in the American Midwest in 1923. You stack the tracks from ladder to ladder, steel rod to steel rod. The work follows a strict process, and every day you have a certain goal to reach. The goal, standard to all, is based on the building phase of your most muscular co-worker. “It is reachable to him so it should be reachable to all”, they say. But how someone who is 20cm shorter and half as physically strong can possibly stand a chance?

All daring enthusiasts and visionaries, let us hear you: The call for actual sessions at the event is open - for everyone!
