Luke Ramsey CV CV for Luke Ramsey Bio: Luke Ramsey ( born 1979 ) is one of the founding members of Islands Fold, an artist residency that was on Pender Island, B.C, Canada from 2005-2010. Luke has collaborated with over 100 different artists to date, exhibits internationally and works as a freelance illustrator, painter, animator, and muralist. His client list includes The Cartoon Network, Patagonia, The New York Times, WIRED, The BC Children's Hospital and more. Luke has taught youth drawing workshops in Haida Gwaii, Powell River and Victoria, BC, Canada. He was invited as a guest speaker at The Pictoplasma conference in Berlin, Germany, 2010. Luke completed a giant collaborative outdoor mural with Josh Holinaty on the John Howard Society building in Edmonton, Canada in 2010. The mural won an award of excellence from The City of Edmonton in 2011, and a 2012 National Urban Design Medal from the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. His illustrated book Intelligent Sentient? is published by Drawn & Quarterly, and was nominated for a Doug Wright Award in 2015. Luke is currently The City of Victoria's Artist in Residence for 2017-2018. Luke's work is about a continuous line in time that draws from the inside and paints over the edge. A reverence and inspection of nature, duality between simplicity and abstraction, a tidy mess.

  • Covering Climate: a Comparative Assessment of BC Media1 Shane
    Covering Climate: A Comparative Assessment of B.C. Media1 Shane Gunster, Simon Fraser University Discussion Paper prepared for the Climate Justice Project, May 2010 Explanations for the lack of strong public engagement with climate change often pin the blame on the failure of mainstream media to accurately report the consensus views of climatologists and other natural scientists that, first, the anthropogenic basis of global warming is an accepted fact and not a contested hypothesis, and, second, the impacts of such warming will be severe and possibly catastrophic if strong measures are not taken immediately to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In his recent book Climate Cover-Up: The Crusade to Deny Global Warming, for instance, James Hoggan (2009) describes the diverse and well-financed efforts of a variety of groups – chief among them corporate beneficiaries of the fossil fuel economy and think-tanks promoting the virtues of neoliberal capitalism – to propagate doubt and uncertainty about the causes and consequences of climate change, even questioning whether or not global warming is actually happening (also see Jacques 2008; McRight and Dunlap 2003). As a number of media scholars have argued, such groups have had a great deal of success in disseminating this ‘climate of scepticism’ in the mass media (especially in North America), helping generate and sustain a widespread misperception among the general public that climate science is characterized by controversy, debate and fundamental uncertainty (e.g. Antilla 2005; Boykoff 2007; Boykoff and Boykoff 2004; Grundman 2007; Oreskes 2004). Unsure whether scientists agree that climate change is a real problem or not, the public assign it a low priority as compared with more pressing issues whose certainty is not in doubt.

  • The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square
    Linda Lewin Graif The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square rchitecture is a discipline that operates in a complex public A arena. While architecture may be defined as the art and sci­ ence of conceptualizing the built environment, the journey from the drawing board to the constructed artifact is a perilous one. The architect's initial concept, itself subject to constraints of many kinds, must be negotiated with clients, engineers, contractors, financial partners, special interest groups, and the general pub­ lic. Architecture, particularly public architecture, is inherently non-hermetic and, as such, is open to challenge and debate.

This work may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without permission of the author. APPROVAL Name: Matthew O’Grady Degree: Master of Publishing Title of Project Report: The 2003 Relaunch of Vancouver Magazine Supervisory Committee: ________________________________ Dr. Valerie Frith Senior Supervisor Assistant Professor, Master of Publishing Program Simon Fraser University ________________________________ Dr. Rowland Lorimer Director, Master of Publishing Program Simon Fraser University ________________________________ Mr. Jim Sutherland Editorial Director Transcontinental Media West Date Approved: ________________________________ ii ABSTRACT This project report examines the 2003 relaunch of Vancouver magazine. It provides an overview of the magazine’s 35-year history, as well as an analysis of its current state: editorial, advertising, circulation, readership and competition. The report also offers an inside account of the strategic planning that went into the relaunch, including: findings from a July 2002 competitive analysis of Toronto Life, Canada’s preeminent city magazine; highlights from a November 2002 Vancouver magazine subscriber survey; and a chronicle of various planning meetings, held within Transcontinental Media West, between July and December 2002. This report evaluates Vancouver magazine’s prospects for a successful relaunch within the framework of the two city magazine studies, each of which addresses the role and purpose of a city magazine. Questions and findings from those studies are then posed to three editors of Vancouver magazine (past and present), who offer an analysis of the city magazine research within the context of their specific experiences at the magazine.

  • CANADIAN CITIES AMERICAN CITIES Our Differences Are the Same
    1 Patrick M. Condon, UBC James Taylor Chair in Landscape and Liveable Environments CANADIAN CITIES AMERICAN CITIES Our Differences Are the Same Patrick M. Condon February 2004 Foreword At the westernmost crossing between Canada and the US stands the Peace Arch monument. The motto “Children of a Common Mother” is written there in two foot high bronze letters, a motto that emphasizes the similar genesis for each country. Looking across the waters of the Georgia Straight from here you can see San Juan Island, site of the short lived “Pig War”, the last armed conflict between Canada (or British North America as it was then known) and the United States. Since that time peace has reigned, but differences persist. In the past fifty years a new and important difference has emerged, the difference between the US metropolitan areas and their Canadian counterparts. What explains these differences, and what can we learn from them? This paper provides an introduction to the question, sketched out in exceedingly broad strokes, for the sake of seeding discussion and provoking debate. Historical Background. A Different View of Authority First, the two countries have different patterns and modes of settlement. In Canada the land was, and is, occupied by the “Crown.” The “Crown” roughly translates to the American “State,” but with a royal flavor. Americans might have a hard time accepting Crown ownership. For Americans, the idea of a native soil occupied by any force other than intrepid adventurists or communities of faith seems inconceivable. For Canadians the idea of Crown ownership is not incompatible with a sense of shared ownership of Crown resources, since they, as citizens George Arthur French Trek West, Canadian Prairie (not subjects), are part of the Crown.
