Collage as part of the scientific process aka thinking about urbanism and interdisciplinarity by gluing together pieces of Spacing and GEO magazines

A collage of different types of buildings with the text: "A place to grow?" "As good a place as any" "we built it"

A collage of the Toronto skyline with the text "What do you want to bring to the urban environment in Toronto?"

A collage of a photograph of a church surrounded by trees and encircled by a town on top of a photograph of sheep on a hillside. Text reads: "Collaborative approach to transforming old spaces"

Every map of Toronto is the same map of Toronto: an ongoing series. (To be clear, this is not a criticism of the research, which literally notes that there is a correlation with socioeconomic status.) www.thestar.com/news/gta/pla...

Yesterday was the last day of my 3-year long field experiment, and the last of my fieldwork for my PhD! I did some drawings and wrote a bit about my thoughts and feelings about it in the latest issue of the EEB Quarterly theeebquarterly.github.io

We started today with a wonderful talk on how cordyceps fungus generates zombie ants. Then on to modelling, egg laying timing & brood number, white clover in rural and urban environments, young active SINEs in Italian sparrow, TE content in ferns 🧵1/2 #eseb2025 #eseb #sciart

Converting previous land-uses to parks *can* provide many benefits, but doesn't erase environmental injustice. New interdisciplinary work drawing from urban forestry, historical ecology, and environmental justice - really glad to see this one out! esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

🚨 Cool new project alert 🚨 WE- you, me, everyone- need to work together to get important science messages out to people. 4 artists & 3 scientists collab'd on these posters. We hope YOU will put them out in your community. Each poster comes w/info about each topic. Get 'em Squidfacts.bigcartel.com

4 12x18 inch posters on a brick and concrete wall. The top left is pink and says funding science saves lives, written in microbes, next to a microscope. The one on the right says Biology is bigger than binaries, with a fish, a lily, and a bee. The bottom left says Protecting wildlife starts wtih you, with a bunch of adiorable woodland creatues in yellow, white and black, including an owl, fungi, a... um. weasel? salamanders, butterflies, slugs, and a rotting log. The bottom right says Will our oceans thrive or nosedive the choice is yours, with the ocean represented in a circle, half of which is dead and half of which is alive, including kelp and a mackerel
