The Urban Disorders Clinic Consultation Session

Our intervention has evolved into the Urban Disorders Clinic under the supervision of Dr Vic Cabal, a specialist in the treatment of the urban epidemic known as the Docklands Development Disorder (DDD). The clinic has been temporarily "implanted" at Site 7 and will be open for consultations from 2pm today. Visitors are encouraged to have a one-on-one consultation with one of our specialists, where they will be diagnosed for the condition of DDD. A range of treatments is available at the clinic. After receiving immediate, short-term treatments, they go into "community re-integration", before being released back into the public realm. Community re-integration takes place at the "Operating Table" - here they can socialise with other visitors (patients), have a drink, warm their hands at the fire, draw on the table with chalk and reflect on their treatment and the long-term rehabilitation of their particular strand of DDD. The treatments available at the clinic include Decontamination Shower, Walking the Dog, Isolation Cell, Nail It, Joy Jump and more. There is also an Intensive Care unit for patients in the Ultrawanker tax bracket.

Below is a simple chart of the Consultation and Treatment session, known as our Diagnostic Tool. This will be drawn on the top of the Operating Table, for reference by our specialists during consultations. Visitors can also annotate the chart and leave their thoughts on the table.
The specialists use the Diagnosis Form to structure the consultation and gather information from patients. The patient takes this form away with them - but before they leave, we will take a photo of it for our records.
Our team will take on the roles of urban disorder specialists/physicians, reception (triage), intensive care and rehabilitation carers.

The whole system is a disruption to the normal conditions on site and in everyday living, playing with the familiar to get people thinking about the possibilities at Docklands. We see it as an apparatus for engaging with the public, simultaneously offering them playful and reflective activities, and enabling us to find out how they feel about the Docklands and its future.
