Los Angeles Urban Rangers
LA-based geographers, environmental and art historians, artists, curators, architects, and others who aim, with both wit and a healthy dose of sincerity, to facilitate creative, critical, head-on, oblique, and crisscrossed investigations into our sprawling metropolis and its various ecologies. Fashioned as a mobile and site-specific interpretive force, and appropriating the figure of the stereotypic park service ranger, we offer educational campfire programs and guided hikes throughout Los Angeles.

REMAP
REMAP was a collaborator on the "Actions of Time & Space on the Walk of Fame" and is undertaking a long-term research effort to engage urban communities in the design of technological systems that express their cultures and identities. The multi-year project, titled REMAPPING LA, features a decentralized approach to technological development, which is centered on three key principles: 1) Participation of the general populace, with an emphasis on the involvement of Los Angeles teenagers, families, and educators; 2) Awareness of the context in which the systems are being designed; 3) Encouragement of tangible and meaningful interfaces between project members and media.
