In part one of the first episode of Playopolis, we talk to two of the world's leading advocates for playable cities, Clare Reddington and Hilary O’Shaughnessy from Watershed, about their mission to restore agency and creativity to cities through games and play.
And in part two, we take a deep dive into the weird and wonderful world of Randonauting - a random walking app that uses quantum random numbers to reveal glitches in the edge of the simulation. Featuring interviews and contributions from creative technologist Gerard Mason, Randonautica founder Joshua Lengfelder, Australian National University's Department of Quantum Physics Professor Ping Koy Lam, and media scholar Dr Siobhan Lyons.
Playopolis is produced by 64 Ways of Being on the lands of the Woi Wurrung and Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation.
64 Ways of Being is a free augmented reality app that allows players to see Melbourne through new eyes. Coming in late 2020. Find out more at 64waysofbeing.com
