description: The latest issue of Offramp, a journal produced by the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc), is a thought-provoking collection of essays, projects, and interviews that highlights work by faculty, students, and recent graduates. Although a number of the essays are based on the theme of the urban form of Los Angeles, the topics addressed also include a critique of current architectural practice, an interview with artist Mike Kelley, and an investigation of the trailer park.A graphic feast designed by graduate students at the California Institute of the Arts, under the direction of Lorraine Wild, Offramp 6 contains contributions by Mike Kelley, a prominent Los Angeles artist; Margaret Crawford, chair of SCI-Arc's history and theory department and author of Building the Workingman's Paradise; John Chase, Chase and Burnett Architects; Mike Ferguson, member of Hedge Design Collective; Roger Sherman, a Santa Monica architect; and Dave Hickey, art critic for Art Issues and professor at the University of Nevada Las Vegas.
