Dear colleagues:
I am in the final throes of rewriting a number of my essays for
publication. One is entitled "The Multiple Tasks of Design Studies." In it
I am trying to do a survey of the various strands of design research that
have been going for the past twenty or thirty years. I would like to get
some more information about when the Design Research Society was founded,
what publications have come from it, how large its membership is, who are
the members, and what are its current objectives. I am also interested in
other organized research groups. I have information on the Design Thinking
Research Group, the Artificial Intelligence in Design Group, the Design
Management Institute, the Design History Society. Any other groups that
come to mind: also important books, collections of proceedings, conferences
etc. Any information you can provide on these matters will be helpful. I do
mention the Ohio conference in my notes and will be publishing a revised
version of my conference paper in the book. The current title is "The Two
Herberts."
Best, Victor
