Marx and the Aesthetic (May 2012,

The aim of this conference is twofold: on the one hand, to analyse the role
of the aesthetic in the writings of Marx and, on the other, to examine
works of art and literature which are based on, or have been directly
inspired by, Marx’s writings. At the core of this conference, then, is an
attempt to think the immanent relation between the aesthetic and
emancipatory conceptions of politics.

The Design Education Committee of the Design Engineering Division of
the American Society of Mechanical Engineers is pleased to announce the
9th International Conference on Design Education.
With the success of the 2011 International Conference on Design
Education (DEC), the theme for 2012 continues the emphasis on scholarship
in design education and the creation of archival literature in this area.
Three strands of paper topics that fall under the scholarship of design
education umbrella include: 1) Scholarly Research in Design Education, 2)
Student Engagement in Design Education, and 3) Best Practices in Design and
Design Education. Eleven sessions for the conference that highlight these
areas are described in the detailed topic announcements below. These have
been selected to emphasize fundamentals and quantification in the
design education field. Authors are encouraged to submit their best work
to the most appropriate topic area topics and sessions will later be
adjusted to create the most effective conference program. Key papers will
be advanced to the Journal of Mechanical Design. The organizers look
forward to your taking part in the scholarly exchange, and to seeing you in
Chicago!

Digital Creativity: Special Issue on Design Fictions (March
2012)<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2011/12/25/digital-creativity-special-issue-on-design-fictions-march-2012/>
DECEMBER 25, 2011
Deadline for extended abstracts: 5 March 2012
Website: http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/NDCR
*Digital Creativity* is a major peer-reviewed journal at the intersection
of the creative arts and digital technologies. It publishes articles of
interest to those involved in the practical task and theoretical aspects of
making or using digital media in creative contexts. By the term ‘creative
arts’ we include such disciplines as fine art, graphic design,
illustration, photography, printmaking, sculpture, 3D design,
interaction design, product design, textile and fashiondesign, film making,
animation, games design, music, dance, drama, creative writing, poetry,
interior design, architecture, and urban design.
This special issue of the journal invites papers, projects and reviews
exploring and developing the notion of Design Fictions. One of the early
proponents ofDesign Fictions, the author Bruce Sterling, said that design:
“seeks out ways to jump over its own conceptual walls – scenarios, user
observation, brainstorming, rapid prototyping, critical design,
speculative design” (Sterling, 2009). Despite the current burgeoning of
this field and its various histories and antecedents, the coming together
of design and fiction, as ‘design fictions’, remains relatively
underexplored.

J for Artistic Research, Issue 2 (Feb
2012)<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2011/12/25/j-for-artistic-research-issue-2-feb-2012/>
DECEMBER 25, 2011
Deadline for submissions: 15 February 2012
Website: http://www.jar-online.net
Artistic research is a newly emergent and rapidly evolving field, whose
status is still hotly debated. The Journal for Artistic Research (JAR) has
been launched to provide an influential voice in this debate, conceived as
a platform for the re-negotiation of the relationship between art and
academia, and the role and function of research in artistic practice.
Supporting JAR’s publishing activities is the innovative repository for the
documentation of artistic research, the Research Catalogue (RC). An
upgraded version of this free-to-use software and database will be online
on the occasion of JAR 1. Through RC, we welcome submissions to the second
issue of JAR by 15th February 2012. Please visit our website for further
information.

ACM Trans Computer-Human Interaction Special Issue on Sustainable HCI

ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction (TOCHI)
Special Issue on “Sustainable HCI through Everyday Practices”
Deadline for Abstract Submissions: February 1, 2012
Website: http://tochi.acm.org/si/sustainable.shtml
In this special issue, we build on such works to broaden the scope of
investigation for sustainable HCI from individual behaviors to everyday
social and cultural practices. Consideration of the complex interweaving of
social, cultural, material and mental components of everyday consumption
activities has much to offer sustainable HCI and interrelated work
addressing pressing social and environmental issues. In studying people’s
everyday practices and how they relate to sustainability, it becomes clear
that everyday life is not only a locus of intervention for sustainable HCI;
it equally raises issues about and provides opportunities for how HCI can
and should approach sustainability. Further details in the
website<http://tochi.acm.org/si/sustainable.shtml>
