Play Theory

Homo Ludens (Huizinga, 1980)

Play is central to human culture, freely chosen, outside ordinary life, and deeply absorbing. It forms bonds and creates community.

Play Frame (Bateson, 1973)

Events create a psychological "play frame" where participants know they are pretending (e.g., Elvis impersonators are not real) but still act as if it is real. This paradox (real/not real) is what makes play fun and meaningful.

Sociability (Simmel,1964) 

True sociability occurs when people set aside their normal roles (status, work, wealth) and interact as equals. Play at festivals creates temporary equality, trust, and freedom.

Motivation

the reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way.
