George S. Jaramillo
George Jaramillo is a Research Associate/Lecturer for The Glasgow School of Art at its Highlands and Islands campus in Forres. As part of the Innovation School, his main focus is on challenging historical Highland Romantic perceptions of the region and acknowledging contemporary ruralities. In understanding these ideas, new industries and innovation can be developed to create the future heritage of the region. He completed a Ph.D. at the University of Edinburgh studying cultural geography where his work explored the regional development of the historic lead mining landscape of the southern Peak District. It focused on the intersection between phenomenologies of landscape, performative politics, the social entities, and the labour that goes into making it.
