>Subject: Include 2003 - Call for Papers on inclusive design - submission
> details
>
>INCLUDE 2003: inclusive design in practice
>2nd International conference at the Royal College of Art, London, UK,
>25-28 March 2003
>http://www.hhrc.rca.ac.uk/events/include2003/index.html
>Inclusive design describes a process whereby designers and
>manufacturers ensure that their products and services address the
>needs of the widest possible audience.
>
>
>DON'T MISS this opportunity to discuss your work on inclusive design
>at one of the key design & business conferences of 2003, adding to
>the cutting-edge approaches, case studies and business successes
>described at Include 2001. Contributions from designers, researchers
>and business managers are equally welcome, especially where they
>reflect on the practice of applying inclusive design to mainstream
>products, environments, technologies and services.
>
>HOW TO SUBMIT PAPER OR WORKSHOP ABSTRACTS
>Details are given below on how to submit an abstract for Include
>2003. The submission deadline is 30 September 2002 but do let us
>know if you have a problem meeting this - we may be able to offer an
>extension with sufficient notice.
>
>FOCUS - INCLUSIVE DESIGN IN PRACTICE
>At Include 2003, the leading international figures in inclusive
>design will discuss academic, conceptual and commercial work on
>topics ranging from fashion to workplace design, from transport to
>domestic interiors. We aim to enable researchers, designers and
>managers to keep up to date with inclusive design thinking and
>practice, to work in a creative, interdisciplinary atmosphere and
>return to their organisations with valuable new ideas and know-how.
>
>Papers and other submissions should be about implementation as well
>as theory, should support interdisciplinary collaboration and build
>bridges between the business and design/research communities.
>
>THEMES
>
>1. THE WHY - Contexts & drivers of inclusive design
>What is the current and emerging business case for inclusive design?
>What implications do changing technologies, legislation, consumer
>demand and other factors hold for its development ?
>
>2. THE WHO - Knowing the user
>What are the characteristics of dynamically changing populations and
>markets, e.g. among older people and young disabled people ? How can
>researchers, designers and business managers gain user understanding
>and interpret it for the widest range of user needs and aspirations?
>
>3. THE HOW - Philosophies and approaches
>How have attitudes towards inclusive design matured and altered since
>Include 2001 <http://www.hhrc.rca.ac.uk/events/include/report.html>?
>What common ground is emerging as to how this can be incorporated
>into the practice of mainstream design? What are the key design
>methods and tools? And the new business or design management models?
>
>4. THE WHAT - Inclusive design in practice
>What lessons can we learn and share from case studies of inclusively
>designed homes, workplaces, public buildings and environments,
>communications & smart technologies, vehicles & transport systems,
>fashion & clothing, products and services, be they conceptual or real.
>
>5. THE FUTURE - Beyond 2003
>New paradigms, forecasts and scenarios for inclusive design in the
>coming 5-10-20 years - beyond legislation, beyond usability, towards
>an inclusive society.
>
>SELECTION:
>Selection of abstracts and workshop proposals will be made by an
>international Scientific Committee chaired by Professor Alastair
>Macdonald, Glasgow School of Art. The Committee's decision will be
>final.
>
>REMINDER OF DEADLINES
>Deadline for receipt of abstracts and workshop proposals: 30
>September 2002 unless an extension has been agreed (see above).

>Deadline for receipt of full papers: 17 January 2003
>
>PUBLICATION
>All selected papers received by the 17 January 2003 deadline will be
>published in a CDRom included with conference packs. We also plan to
>publish abstracts and/or papers on the Include 2003 website in
>advance of the conference.
>
>PRESENTATION
>Authors of successful submissions will be invited to discuss their
>work at the conference. The emphasis will be on debate and
>interaction rather than lengthy formal presentations. This will be
>facilitated by electronic publication of papers.
>
>LENGTH OF ABSTRACT
>Abstracts must be no longer than 300-400 words.

>ABSTRACT:
>
>Inclusive approaches to design are receiving greater attention in the
>commercial and research sectors. Increasingly, designers and
>manufacturers view inclusive design as a commercial and moral
>imperative. A commercial imperative largely because the ageing of the
>population is leading to a greater number of disabled people in
>society, many of whom have a considerable disposable income. A moral
>imperative because democratic societies recognise the ideal that all
>should be included and have the same choices and opportunities -
>including the same choice of products or services.
>
>Traditionally, inclusive design approaches have tended to concentrate
>on fitting designs to the physical and cognitive attributes of the
>user. It will be argued in this paper that such approaches are
>limited because they fail to take into account the wider issues of
>attitude and lifestyle which can influence the extent to which a
>product or service fits those for whom it is designed.
>
>A framework is outlined which encourages those involved in inclusive
>design to look at the user holistically. The components of The Four
>Pleasures, as it is termed, are as follows:
>
>Physio-Pleasure: To do with the body - pleasures derived from the
>senses e.g. in the context of products physio-pleasure would cover
>tactile and olfactory properties.
>Socio-Pleasure: The enjoyment derived from relationships with others
>e.g. products may confer social status or identity or may play a role
>in social situations.
>Psycho-Pleasure: Pertains to people's cognitive and emotional
>reactions - including their reactions to products.
>Ideo-Pleasure: This concerns people's values in the context of
>products, this might relate to, for example, the aesthetics of a
>product and the values it embodies.
>
>Inclusive approaches have traditionally focused on the physio/psycho
>components of this framework. However, it should be noted that the
>socio-ideo components can vary according the nature of a person's
>disability, as well as such demographic and lifestyle factors as age,
>gender, culture and personality.
>
>A number of examples will be given illustrating the application of
>the framework in an inclusive design context.
