Listed as Panel #36: From one thing to another: Technologies of
representation in design and making
Arlene Oak, University of Alberta, [log in to unmask]
Claire Nicholas, [log in to unmask]
Technologies of visualization are a well-established matter of concern to
STS scholars interested in questions of knowledge production and
representation (Hacking 1983, Latour and Woolgar 1986, Latour 1990, Kaiser
2005). Recent work extends this consideration to acoustic technologies
(Helmreich 2007, Pinch and Bijsterveld 2004, Roosth 2009). This panel opens
an adjacent conversation in relation to the use of digital and analog media
in the design processes of fields such as industrial design, architecture,
planning, engineering, and visual communication design. Here the issues are
less about constituting pattern, order, and meaning from scientific data,
with the digital/analog question instead highlighting issues of
translatability, or “transductivity” (Helmreich 2007, Silverstein 2003)
across representational mediums, and in relation to problems of scale and
complexity. It also bears on professional debates on craft, making, and
aesthetics.

Deadline for submission of abstracts: 13 March 2015
Practice-led research has become particularly pertinent in art, design and
the social sciences in recent years, alongside a more general blooming of
interest in the relationship between the mind, body and external world.
Studies increasingly acknowledge or embrace the presence of the researcher
or use the body as the means of doing research. In practice-led research
bodily movement is simultaneously the mode of knowledge production and
reception (Sklar 2000: 71).

Progetto Grafico 29 International Graphic Design Magazine (IT) – Topic:

*Progetto grafico 29: Clients and Patrons*
*edited by Riccardo Falcinelli, Davide Fornari, Carlo Vinti*
At a time of general economic difficulties, marked by constant disciplinary
and professional readjustments in the field of visual communication, we
have chose to devote this issue of Progetto grafico to the theme of clients
and patrons.
Historically, in the field of graphic design, large industrial, commercial,
or institutional clients have provided not only financial support to
designers (in the form of commissions), but have also had an impact on
design choices, and contributed to shaping the image that graphic designers
have of themselves as professionals. Despite this, clients are often
forgotten protagonists in the history of graphic design. Recent critical
debate has more often focused on the changing role of graphic designers and
their direct relationship with end users. The issue of clients and patrons
has remained largely in the shadows, although clients continue to play key
roles in the process of design and production of communicative artifacts.

The promise of cognitive innovation as a collaborative project in the
sciences, arts and humanities is that we can approach creativity as a
bootstrapping cognitive process in which the energies that shape the poem
are necessarily indistinguishable from those that shape the poet. For the
purposes of this conference the exploration of the idea of cognitive
innovation concerns an understanding of creativity that is not exclusively
concerned with conscious human thought and action but also as intrinsic to
our cognitive development. As a consequence, we see the possibility for
cognitive innovation to provide a theoretical and practical platform from
which to address disciplinary differences in ways that offer new topics and
concerns for research in the sciences and the humanities.

Deadline for submissions: 1 June 2015
This conference welcomes contributions exploring and discussing materials
in relation to sensuous qualities, objects, context, strategy, service,
space, time, place, techniques, discipline, domain, production,
sustainability, interaction, use, metaphors, imaginations,
associations, reflective thinking, etc. We interpret materials here in
the widest possible sense to include any kind of creative outputs in
whatever formats. With this conference, we wish to explore different ways
in which experiential knowledge through materials can be given more
appropriate consideration within the framework of research. This may
include for example investigations into the nature, aims, validity,
evaluation and/or necessity of different modes of communication
and exchange.

Special Issue of Digital Creativity: Post-Anthropocentric Creativity
(Jan 2016)
<https://designcalls.wordpress.com/2015/02/17/special-issue-of-digital-creativity-post-anthropocentric-creativity-jan-2016/>
FEBRUARY 17, 2015
Website: https://www.academia.edu/10836691/Post-Anthropocentric_Creativity
Deadline for submission of abstracts: 15 May 2015
Guest editors: Stanislav Roudavski and Jon McCormack
This special issue aims to audit existing conceptions of creativity in the
light of non-anthropocentric interpretations of agency, autonomy,
subjectivity, social practices and technologies. Specifically, it seeks to
explore how 1) the *agents, recipients and processes* of creativity and
2) the *purpose, value, ethics and politics *of creativity relate to
phenomena of computation. The editors encourage innovative narrative or
visual strategies that can express relevant scenarios better that more
typical forms of academic writing. Dialogues, conversations, plays,
scripts, instruction sets, games or visual essays (for example) might be
suitable alongside logical arguments or formulae. Initial proposals should
be submitted as abstracts of 800–1200 words.
Abstracts due: May 15, 2015, to be sent as PDFs to Stanislav Roudavski at
[log in to unmask] as well as to the editors of Digital
Creativity at [log in to unmask]

Irish Design Research Conference 2015: Faultlines Bridging Knowedge Spaces
-(Carlow, Ireland)
4th-5th of June 2015
20th Mar – Submission of Abstracts Close
https://faultlinesconference.wordpress.com/
Twitter @_faultlines
The inaugural Irish Design Research Conference is an exciting new event on
the design landscape, supported by ID2015 Year of Irish Design. In
recognition of the breadth & depth across the design disciplinary bandwidth
in both research & practice, FAULTLINES-Bridging Knowledge Spaces has been
adopted as the 2015 conference theme.
Through interaction and collaboration across disciplines, gaps in knowledge
and practice will offer new opportunity, to inform future theory & practice
for mutual benefit.
Aim:
The Irish Design Research Conference seeks to draw stakeholders from across
the design related community together into a common dialogue.
The aim is to offer a forum to disseminate the most current knowledge,
share ongoing practice-led insight, and discuss emergent issues relevant to
those working in the field of design, design thinking & practice.

with applications across all complex systems and services. We invite
participation for RSD4 from all those working at the frontiers of systemic
design – those leading real projects informed by systemic and complexity
theories, and those researching systemic behaviours within real-world
complexity, services and systems.
