In this episode of Playopolis we hear from urban designer Quentin Stevens about his concept of the ludic city. He has been studying urban play in Melbourne before and during the pandemic, and is interested in the ways in which the city is being reshaped and reimagined.
In the second half of the program, we travel back to Japan with research and artist Hugh Davies, to continue exploring the pre-history of the hit augmented reality game Pokémon Go. He takes us back to the practice of shrine pilgrimage in feudal Japan, connecting it with the super popular ‘stamp rallies’ that happen across the national rail network.
