abstract = "This paper examines two ludic {\textquoteleft}sites of information{\textquoteright} -Alexander{\textquoteright}s Trocchi{\textquoteright}s Sigma Portfolio and Joan Littlewood{\textquoteright}s Bubble City pamphlet- within which Joan Littlewood{\textquoteright}s programme for a Fun Palace evolved in collaboration with a significant network of major personalities that included Cedric Price and Gordon Pask amongst others. On one hand the paper looks into the transference of qualities from content to format, and from site to idea; and on the other, it assesses the role of play in defining a {\textquoteleft}metacategorical method{\textquoteright} (in Trocchi{\textquoteright}s words) in order to examine the broader cultural scope behind the Fun Palace.",
