Ebook: Campus Space by Jen Stanfel
For my ebook, I continued to research the campus space issues I worked with to create my storycube. My ebook, like my storycube, draws attention to how space changes, becoming diminished and less green as it is more heavily engineered (not only as buildings go up, but as open space becomes tighter and more unnatural [...]

Prolegomena to Mundanity – Ebook by AN Meyer
For my Ebook, I wanted to continue the themes that I looked at in regards to my Storycube, in particular the ideas of repetition and pattern. However, I wanted to look at these themes in a new light, especially in connection to the mundane. Perec and Shebald were important in this step to unearthing phenomenon [...]

ebook — The Wreck of the “Julie Plante”
The Wreck of the “Julie Plante” is a poem written in 1896 by Irish-born physician Dr. William Henry Drummond, who wrote poetry almost exclusively in the doggerel slang of French-Canadians who spoke bad English. Hopelessly politically incorrect, the poem can only be understood if read aloud in a broad fake French accent — and this, [...]

eBook – Spaces Defined?
My eBook, ‘Spaces Defined?’ examines the ways in which it is possible to define the different places, spaces and environments associated with the University of Waterloo – not only the campus, but development and certain business as well. I think it is interesting how the University community defines these different places, creating a very specific [...]

eBook – The Result of a Petition from 1896
The idea for my eBook began with a petition I found from 1896. This group was advocating for a bicycle trail to be installed along the Grand Trunk Rail Line that follows the Grand River. The group proposed that this trail begin in Galt (now Cambridge) and connect to Blair. I could find very little [...]

For my eBook I have chose to base it upon the idea of an individual and who they are within the University of Waterloo community. The University of Waterloo is in a sense a community on it’s own full of many different individuals who may never know one another. I am using the eBook as [...]

My eBook relates to my gourp’s postcard project in that this book deals with activism on the UW campus and our postcards dealt with a single incident of activism, the “dog burning” protest.

(Ebook) Guides to Galt: A History of Architectural Spaces
For my ebook project, I chose to make a distributable pamphlet or “guidebook” to the history of the architecture along the Grand River in Cambridge, a space that has enchanted me since I began living in the Tri-City region. I chose this particular space—one of the oldest areas of Galt—because of its multilayered history (officially [...]
