Together with\u00a0visiting PhD scholar Delaram Ashtari I organized a small playtest session of urban game Redesire<\/a> on 20 November 2017 in Utrecht. The game was commissioned by Tessa Peters & Rolf van Boxmeer and designed by We Are Muesli. It is part of a longer-running art\/architecture project called Rezone<\/a>, in which I have collaborated in the past.<\/p>\n

Invitation\u00a0playtesting session\u00a0Redesire:\u00a0playing urban redevelopment<\/b>
\nMonday\u00a0Nov 20 2017, 11:00-13:00 \u2013 location\u00a0Muntstraat\u00a02a<\/a>, room 1.11, Utrecht University<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Participation\u00a0and co-creation with various stakeholders are increasingly\u00a0intertwined in urban planning projects. Finding new tools for\u00a0enhancing public participation become a\u00a0significant\u00a0issue\u00a0in urban planning field and using games is one of the latest efforts.\u00a0Redesire\u00a0is an interactive multiplayer urban game by\u00a0Rezone\u00a0in partnership with Heijmans\u00a0(international construction company).<\/p>\n

Redesire\u00a0is a\u00a0platform for various urban development stakeholders to engage with\u00a0one another\u2019s spatial desires.\u00a0This serious game challenges players to engage with each\u00a0other during\u00a0the (re)development of an area. Redesire tries to provide a safe\u00a0space for multiple stakeholders with seemingly opposing interests to\u00a0meet, discuss, and work on\u00a0possible\u00a0solutions that overcome their\u00a0differences. Playing with the different interests at stake at\u00a0different levels of an urban development process creates a \u2018map of\u00a0interests\u2019 for\u00a0specific areas and developments in the city, which\u00a0could be a new form of blueprint in planning process.<\/p>\n

On\u00a0Monday Nov 20 2017, 11:00-13:00\u00a0we organize a\u00a0playtesting, together with Tessa Peters and Rolf van Boxmeer from\u00a0Rezone.\u00a0The aim of the session is\u00a0to\u00a0analyze the game\u00a0mechanics and dynamics, in order to find out how\u00a0Redesire can contribute to deeper and more sustainable forms of\u00a0citizen engagement in the planning process.<\/p>\n
