Playground or panopticon? Designing adulthood

Playground design reflects the workforce we hope to create, the behaviour we hope to correct and the adult we aim to engineer. Anthropologist Nitasha Kapoor talks us through the history of playground design, and explains what kind of equipment we're using now. With the dawn of automation and AI, when it comes to child's play, resilience and creativity are on the agenda.
