Workshop (12 - 99): The City as a Playground — Urban Games

In the exhibition ‘Serious Fun. Architecture & Games’ we see that games can do much more than being entertaining or fun to play. The immersive character of playing games can make very complex contexts easy to understand, altering our perception, too: We can imagine a different world and try out new uses for spaces. Together with Philipp Ehmann, one of the founders of City Games and Play:Vienna, a games designer and theatre maker, we play one of his Urban Games. Here, we successively conquer the public space in the MuseumsQuartier in a dynamic and playful way.
