enGage ludiCity is a participative mobile artwork by UCLA's Center for Research in Engineering, Media and Performance (REMAP).
All the activities, generated data, and output are under the direct supervision of Professor Fabian Wagmister (fabian -at- remap.ucla.edu)
and Director of Technology Research Initiatives, Jeff Burke (jburke -at- remap.ucla.edu).
enGage ludiCity is a process-driven cultural performance composed of three distinct stages:
1) ludus constituo ~ personal disruptive ludic actions (June 13-19)
2) ludus locus ~ collective situationist ludic engagement (June 20)
3) ludus meditor ~ dialogic ludic reflection (After June 20)
To participate in stage one, people receive mobile messages (sms) instructing them to engage in playful activities during their daily routine.
They are then asked to provide feedback regarding those activities and their approximate location. The gathered collective information is used to generate evolving “collective ludic maps”
of Los Angeles. These “collective ludic maps” are the main interactive structure for the following two stages of the project.
To participate in this first stage of enGage ludiCity participants need to register using the form below. No actual names, phone numbers, or email
addresses will be made public in any way or form during or after the realization of the project. Participants can opt-out of the project
and request all their generated data be deleted by writing to ludicity -at- remap.ucla.edu
We hope you will join us in this exciting, experimental way of engaging Los Angeles. To do so please fill out the form below.
