The ubiquitous palace / Analyzing urban pervasive games as an interface for a new Public Realm (PDF, Summary, EN) (PDF, Full, EN)
This research attempts to show the equivalence, under a sociological reading of space, of two superficially very different systems: mobile location based games and Cedric Price's 1962 Fun Palace; a radical, unrealized architectural experiment. The aim is to understand locative games as a framework for interfacing with increasingly 'smart' cities, which operate on several non-spatial domains. PocketOULU was developed in parallel with the writing of this paper to serve as one of the case studies. Masters Thesis Dissertation, 2014.
