  • Herald / Harbinger the Pattern on the Plaza Maps the Movement of the Bow Glacier from the Wapta Icefield Down Toward Bow Lake
    Ben Rubin and Jer Thorp Herald / Harbinger The pattern on the plaza maps the movement of the Bow Glacier from the Wapta Icefield down toward Bow Lake. LEDs, steel, granite, sound, sensors, software, electronics; 2017 Heralding the dawn of earth’s Anthropocene period, this artwork incorporates a collection of data feeds to illustrate the interrelationship between human activity in Calgary and the natural system of the Bow Glacier in the Canadian Rockies, which exists in a perpetual state of physical transformation. The artwork uses a specially constructed solar-powered seismic observatory near the glacier to monitor the Inside the lobby, the glacier’s real-time perturbations are rumblings, cracks and shifts of the moving ice. visually juxtaposed against the aggregated trajectories of The observatory continuously reports these movements via satellite to the artwork, where they are expressed as sound nearby pedestrians and vehicles in a sequence of overlapping and moving light. The glacier’s movements are rendered visualizations, while outside on the plaza the glacier’s visually as vertical displacements of horizontal scan lines, and also audibly here in the lobby and outside on the plaza. ceaseless activity is made audible, creating a visceral public presence for this restless complex of ice, rock, and water. www.artsbrookfield.com/art_collection/herald-harbinger BOW GLACIER Pedestrian traffic on the outdoor plaza is monitored using BANFF NATIONAL PARK cameras. The movements of individuals are aggregated over the course of each day and rendered as directional symbols.

Boxall, D. Watson and T.

A Socio-Economic Evaluation of Sportsfishing Activity in Southern Alberta Interim Project Report INTROI)UCTION Recreational fishing is one of the most important recreational activities in Alberta. The report on Sports Fishing in Alberta, 1985, states that over 340,000 angling licences were purchased in the province and the total population of anglers exceeded 430,000. Approximately 5.4 million angler days were spent in Alberta and over $130 million was spent on fishing related activities. Clearly, sportsfishing is an important recreational activity and the fishery resource is the source of significant social benefits. A National Angler Survey is conducted every five years. However, the results of this survey are broad and aggregate in nature insofar that they do not address issues about specific sites. It is the purpose of this study to examine in detail the characteristics of anglers, and angling site choices, in the Southern region of Alberta. Fish and Wildlife agencies have collected considerable amounts of bio-physical information on fish habitat, water quality, biology and ecology.
