This city needs less Disneyland tourism. We need to show people there’s more to Amsterdam than the regular stuff people come for. I also miss the spirit the city had in the 80ies when I moved to this city. It was more free, and now commercialization has strangled the spirit of the place. Perhaps one idea to get locals and visitors to interact in a real way is to design tiles that one side have a marker for a visitor to stand, and on the other side a marker for a local. To get them to talk we should print questions on the tiles that you would ask a stranger.
