ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS COMPLETE OR IN PROGRESS

I prepared as content provider the text and all the 88 photographic images for “Ah,

Wilderness!” a website designed in collaboration with Luc Wauters and designed by

Rodolfo Borello. This website was prepared in conjunction with the exhibition of the

same name (see above).

“Architecture in the Classical Tradition.” This is an electronic/ interactive series of

some 43 individual “presentations,” prepared for the internet by me as content

provider. The text is based on my 36 years of experience studying, photographing,

helping to preserve, and teaching about the built environment. Most of the images are

my own, or have been available in partnership with the Canadian Centre for

Architecture. At present 32 “presentations,” with text, images, an illustrated glossary,

and other innovative features such as a search feature, and accompanied with voice-

overs in most cases, are available for viewing at http://act.art.queensu.ca

This electronic publication, which is three quarters complete, has been made possible

almost entirely by the funds from the Queen's Research Chairs Programme.
