Leaflets

  • I also picked up some leaflets, which then lead me to the word heritage, as there is a heritage trail occurring at the birmingham Jewellery Quarter, taking the walks gives people an introduction to quarters past and present, and encourages visitors to discover more about the area. Heritage can mean and also related to many things, heres a list below(taken from Wikipedia):
  • natural heritage, an inheritance of fauna and flora, geology, landscape and landforms, and other natural resources
  • Cultural heritage, the legacy of physical artifacts and intangible attributes of a group or society: man-made heritage
  • Food heritage
  • Industrial heritage, monuments from industrial culture
  • Tradition, customs and practices inherited from ancestors
  • Virtual Heritage, an ICT work dealing with cultural heritage
  • Inheritance of physical goods after the death of an individual; of the physical or non-physical things inherited
  • Heredity, biological inheritance of physical characteristics
  • Birthright, something inherited due to the place, time, or circumstances of someone's birth
  • Kinship, the relationship between entities that share a genealogical origin
I then thought that i could create a similar experience, using heir looms and other parts of my parents and there parents belongings to create a heritage walk, and give people an understanding of what has happened in the past towards the present to myself.
