New idea appeared around this project: we want to give some space for those who would like to talk about traditions, culture, customs. It was inspired partly during research for our site when we discovered how much we can learn about different civilizations looking for information about games history. It was absolutely fascinating to compare those cultures by the prism of games - we hope we'll managed to share with viewers at least a bit of this fascination. Polish lessons at Kasia's school - Staszic Highschool in Warsaw (L.O. nr XIV im Stanislawa Staszica, w Warszawie) helped to start and give it a shape. Students there had to present chosen custom from polish tradition from XVIIIth century. They were supposed to tell it's story basing on history sources. The starting point for that was the book they have been currently talking about ("Pan Tadeusz" by Adama Mickiwicza) where some of the polish traditions are described.

We want to encourage all viewers to tell us something about the culture, traditions, customs. Contemporary or ancient, the one they are living in and know from every-day life, the one that interest them...
