In the summer of 2011, I asked a group of twelve children to define the word "city" by using scissors, colored paper and glue to construct a physical model that included everything they felt was needed for a city to exist. The process was documented using four camera and when the model was complete I interviewed the group about the results--whether or not they would like to live in the city they built, what the character of the neighborhoods was and what the job force looked like.
