What's Jimotogaku?
It is a technique to notice the potentials of people, nature, culture and industry in the area and "BRING OUT" these potentials and many treasures that you have not notices but that had been there from the past.
Indeed, there are wonderful things in the area we casually live. In they are fresh and worthwhile if an outside visitors see them. Your "Normal things" are My "so far from normal things". Finding it is the first step in local science that draws out the potentials that the community has, the potentials that people possess.
