This chapter explores some of the ways in which citizens engage in leisure activities in order to co-create urban space. It demonstrates how locative media allow participants to negotiate the structures designed by those in power and alert citizens to their influence. The chapter also explores aspects of the merging of urban and digital spaces to document experiences that relate to ownership of urban space and offer participants a fresh perspective on their surroundings. It outlines a participatory and political approach to designing locative media that aims to make the familiar strange as well as making strangers familiar. The chapter focuses on how citizens' engagement in locative leisure activities may allow them to co-create urban space. This participatory urbanism is a form of exercising democracy on a daily basis, enhancing awareness of the structures within which we live as well as making participation in the public arena possible.
