::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

1. The world has been digitized. The World Will Be Ludea. Project complete.

2. Play creates reality. Everything is play. Primtive ludic tendencies are the source.

3. The map generates a map; play creates a map of the map; a machine logs a map of the map of the map…

4. The street finds its own things for use.

5. Game designers make good urban planners, they cultivate space in ecologies of codes.

6. Spatial codes, gestures and movement predate words and linguistic codes. A third language is needed.

7. Systems generate cities ::: alien intelligence == pattern recognition. Ubiquitous media as the city’s subconscious.

8. Urban codes can be found between reality and realms of play: virtual, fiction, imagination. Reality traverses across media.

9. Urban codes can be found within moments in urban space when past, present and future identities of the site become tangible.

10. Urban codes can be found in traces, patterns and flows. Media makes them tangible in mixed realities.
