The Lower East Side, the East Village, Alphabet City, Loisaida. Many names for a once neglected neighborhood that now represents some of the most valuable real estate in New York. New condominiums, nightclubs, and high-end retail dot every corner. Meanwhile, the inspiring legacy of landmark efforts to shape a neighborhood's future suffer obfuscation. But their traces remain, underscoring the area's personality, at least for the creative and the curious.

Kicking Over the Traces was a radical neighborhood game that I designed and ran with The CB Crew on September 13, 2008 as part of the Conflux Festival. The game used elements like video puzzles, twitter, activist and radical history, and strategy to create an afternoon of friendly competition and renewed awareness.
