In the absence of pre-existing rules, favoring instead the production of atmosphere and experience, the conventional placeholder(s) of disciplinary or systemic protocols are sup-planted by qualitative e铿 ects that expand received histories or inherited de铿乶itions. Perhaps, then, we can think of Candy Land as analogous to self-authorship developed within, across, and atop broader physical arrangements whereby loose, 铿 eeti ng, and informal organizati ons a 铿 liate with explicit functi onal protocols and subtly embedded experi-enti al intenti ons. In this way, Candy Land is a 铿 liated with confe tti 鈥 simultaneously immersive yet 铿 eeti ng, informal yet temporarily speci铿 c, and individuated yet collecti vely social. Furthermore, qualiti es, in the absence of hard-core rules, are transferrable. This opens conceptual territory for an expanded de铿 niti on of confe tti as both a material and organizati onal logic and of urbanism as an insti tuti onal construct.
