Karey's dissertation is a website www.cosmicplay.net that explores the promise, pitfalls, and transformative power of play through the cultural creations of Disneyland, and the films Chicago and Mary Poppins. Karey is currently creating a game to dream this work onwards, and make it more accessible to others.
