威权现代主义之后的城市规划模式提出了对城市的民主控制和想象作为集体行为的可能性的问题。这篇论文考察了根植于城市社区的阻碍自由思考和自由行动的系统性障碍。通过对艺术团体Department of Play近期作品的案例研究，本文阐述了通过游戏构建世界来吸引公众想象力的基本原理；它提出了这种活动作为对城市规划过程的干预的潜在影响和限制。对领土、语言和社会关系之间的界限空间感兴趣，集体通过游戏和表演在公共空间中推进生产性异议的议程。Department of Play的出发点是，我们只能计划我们想象的东西，因此，它的存在是为了将公众的想象力从资本主义环境所支配的思维模式中解放出来。
Models of urban planning after authoritarian modernism raise the question of democratic control over the city and the possibility of imagining as a collective act. The paper examines systemic hindrances to free-thinking, and thus free-acting, embedded in urban communities. Through the case study of recent work by the art collective Department of Play, it illustrates the rationale for engaging public imagination specifically via play as world building; and it posits the potential implications and limits of such activity as an intervention into city planning processes. Interested in liminal spaces between territory, language and social affiliation, the collective advances an agenda of productive dissent in public space through play and performance. Department of Play begins from the position that we can only plan that which we imagine, and thus exists as an effort to free the public imagination from modes of thinking dictated by the capitalist context.
