In this chapter, I explore quotidian imagination as a social urban phenomenon by examining the most popular images of Dhaka circulating among its residents. These images highlight how everyday imagination is not separate from but rooted in the material city. The images are presented as a quasi-fictionalised account in the form of individual cities. Yet, as with Calvino’s 55 fictional cities that all refer back to Venice, the insights and observations embedded in each of these cities are all about Dhaka. They draw on the lived experiences of three major social types of residents I interviewed during field research for this book. The formal defamiliarisation is aimed to liberate our automatic perception from all received parameters and “knowledge” about the way we understand our relationship with the city. They bring back an awareness of ingenious, local place-making processes, where liberal use of fiction and fantasy is found to be embedded in dwellers’ spatial logic as they respond to the material city and construct their image of the same. In contrast to the images found in the official discourse, the popular images are more expansive, more attuned to the present city, and also more effective in challenging the hegemonic visuality inherent in authoritative knowledge about the city.
