The Art of Research IV: Making, Reflecting, and Understanding (Nov
2012, Helsinki)<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2012/04/18/the-art-of-research-iv-making-reflecting-and-understanding-nov-2012-helsinki/>
APRIL 18, 2012
Dates: 28-29 November 2012
Location: Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture;
Helsinki, Finland
Website: http://designresearch.aalto.fi/events/aor2012/
Submission deadline for abstracts: 10 June 2012
While the power of artistic imagination is widely recognized,
the exploration of artistic and designerly methods of knowledge
acquisition underway in academia has only just become accepted by other
professional communities of researchers and practitioners inhabiting the
academy. Building on contemporary discourse regarding notions of
practice-led research, the Art of Research Conference 2012 aims to explore
the relations that can be constructed between making and critical
reflection, and how these enable artistic and designerly practices to be
characterized as art and design, or artistic or designerly research. Given
how different fields of creative practice may be constructing these
relations in different ways – e.g, in methods, tools and skills — the main
aim of the event is to explore how these fields might relate to and
influence each other.

Location: Bangkok
Website: http://drs2012bangkok.org/index.php?page=Workshops#workshop9
Deadline for application: 20 April 2012
This workshop invites paper presentations discussing the relationship
between humans and technology and how this relationship informs
design. This is a call for papers that consider practical, theoretical and
philosophical positions that place the relationship between humans and
technology at its pivotal core. These papers could discuss new and emerging
technologies and their applications, philosophical positions within the
field, technology design theory amongst many other subjects, however they
have to contribute and consider the debate that explores and pushes the
boundaries of our current understanding of the relationship between humans
and technology.
Selected papers will be published in a special Journal issue.

Launching in 2013, the *International Journal of Design Creativity and
Innovation* is an international publication that provides a forum
for discussing the nature and potential of creativity and innovation in
design from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The journal
pursues a truly interdisciplinary academic field that will interest and
stimulate researchers of engineering design, industrial design,
architecture, artificial intelligence, linguistics, cognitive science, and
similar areas. The journal aims to not only promote existing research but
also pioneer a new design research field that lies in the gray area between
the existing field of design research and the disciplines of systems
engineering, information technology, computer science, social science,
psychology, art, and philosophy, or in the intermediate area within the
existing disciplines.
