The LearnXdesign is a conference series by DRS Special Interest Group in
Design Pedagogy (PedSIG), cultivating symbiotic exchanges between design
education and design research. The first symposium in the series was
held in Paris in 2011 and covered a small number of invited
presentations mainly by British and continental European researchers.
The Oslo 2013 and Chicago 2015 conferences were embraced by the design
education research community at large and involved an impressive number
of contributions across design disciplines and educational levels
representing diverse traditions in research and education. And finally,
the fourth conference was hosted by Ravensbourne University London in
2017. The Fifth International Conference for Design Education
Researchers will be hosted by Middle East Technical University (METU)
Department of Industrial Design between 9-12 July 2019. We are truly
excited to invite you all to our Ankara campus characterized by its
unique natural and built environment as well as by its egalitarian
culture and open intellectual milieu. Despite Turkeys becoming an uneasy
passage from multiple conflict zones to tightened EU borders, our
department will have quite a few occasions to celebrate in the coming
year. The year 2019 marks the 50th anniversary of the first course on
industrial design offered in Turkey, at METU Faculty of Architecture by
the American industrial designer David K. Munro. The same year we will
also be celebrating the 40th anniversary of the establishment of our
department as a separate academic unit at METU. We feel that design
education matters more than ever! The theme for the DRS Learn X Design
2019 is Insider Knowledge. The conference has 18 tracks, fifteen of
which are chaired and three are open. We invite the local and
international design education research community to contribute to the

Conference Theme
MinD invites papers and design contributions for the first international
MinD conference 2019 on Designing for People with Dementia.
The conference will provide a trans-disciplinary forum for researchers,
practitioners, end-users and policy makers from the design and health
care professions to exchange and discuss new findings, approaches and
methods for using design to improve dementia care and to support people
with dementia and their carers.
With ca. 10.9 million people affected by dementia in Europe, with
numbers set to double by 2050 (Prince, Guerchet and Prina 2013), with 20
million carers, and with no cure in sight, research into care to improve
the quality of life of people with dementia is essential, to encourage
and enable them to engage in activities that are in line with their
interests and experiences (Alcove 2013; Alzheimers Society 2013).
Characterised by progressive memory and cognitive degeneration, people
who are affected by Alzheimers disease or other dementias often face
cognitive, behavioural and psychosocial difficulties, including
impairment and degeneration of memory and of perceptions of identity
(Alcove 2013). As a result, many have reduced physical activities or
social engagement, or are unable to work. Emotionally, this can lead to
uncertainty, anxiety and depression and a loss of sense of purpose.
In this light, it is becoming increasingly apparent that it is not just
care that is required but support for how to live well with dementia,
whether in the own home or in residential care. This includes managing
ones own care and every day tasks, as well as leisure activities, social
engagement. Even small things such as whether and when to go out or what
to wear can have important effects on peoples sense of self and
wellbeing, contentment and happiness. Key to this is having choices and
the ability to decide. Acknowledging the agency of people with dementia
and understanding what can be done to support this is therefore a key
question.
Design-based non-pharmacological interventions are increasingly
recognised as having great potential to help. Design can offer novel
ways of complementing care and independent living to empower people with
dementia in everyday situations because of its ubiquitous nature and its
affordances. Much focus has so far been on physical and cognitive tasks
and on safe-keeping and reducing risks. For example, design can help
accomplish physical tasks and offer guidance or reminders, e.g. for time
or orientation, or alert to behavioural changes. While there are some
approaches towards emotional and social aspects of living with dementia,
more could and should be done to focus on enabling people with dementia
and acknowledging their agency.
Design can help to support social, leisure, creative activities. It can
help empower people with dementia offering choices and aiding
decision-making. Design can support the individual person, or change the
environment. This can take the form of a product, of systems or
services, of the built or natural environment. The importance is to use
design to help reduce stigma and exclusion, and instead to improve
well-being and social inclusion to create happiness.
While the aims may be clear, the way to achieve them still raises many
questions about the best approaches, ways and methods to achieve such
aims. This conference therefore seeks to explore the manifold areas and
approaches. This may include novel theoretical approaches, novel methods
in design development or in working with and including end-users, or
novel products, environments, services or systems. Or it may include
novel ways of working, collaboration and co-operation. The key aim is to
bring together and explore how we might impact positively and
sustainably on the personal, social, cultural and economic factors
within our communities to improve living with dementia.
To this end, we welcome a broad engagement with the field and invite
submissions from a diverse range of researchers and practitioners from
the various design and health disciplines, including product and
interior design, craft, information and communication technologies,
architecture and the built environment, psychiatry, psychology,
geriatrics and others who make a relevant to the field.
Themes may include, for example:
- Design approaches for the wellbeing/empowerment/happiness of elderly
people
- Design approaches for the wellbeing/empowerment/happiness of people
with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia
- New design frameworks and approaches for
wellbeing/empowerment/happiness
- Mindful design approaches for wellbeing/empowerment/happiness
- Collaboration between designers, technologists, health professionals
and people with lived experience
- Data collection with and by people with MCI/dementia
- Co-design & co-creation with people with MCI/dementia
- Evaluation of design with people with lived experience
- Evaluation of the impact of design on people with lived experience

FORESIGHT TRACK
There is an opportunity to contribute research insights to a special
foresight track at the Academy for Design Innovation Management
(ADIM<https://designinnovationmanagement.com/adim2019/>) Conference
2019, which operates as a platform for knowledge creation, collaboration
and advancement across a diverse range of Design Innovation and Design
Management discipline areas.
In Track 5g: "Design with Foresight: Strategic Anticipation in Design
Research <https://designinnovationmanagement.com/adim2019/track-5-g/>",
we invite research that explores design practice cases presenting
significant integration or effective processes of strategic foresight in
constructing a stakeholders perspective on capability development and
the transformation of design, which is ever more extending its reach
beyond the object into areas such as e.g. Design for Social Change, and
Design Policy.
Specifically, we will seek advanced cases and emerging practices
demonstrating futures thinking and strategic foresight in Design and
Innovation Management in handling environmental (macro-business)
uncertainty, especially where deeper or longer-term anticipation has
proven effective in radical or unexpected design-led innovation. This
track seeks to address, but is not limited to the following questions:
- What role can strategic foresight play in enhancing design
decision-making?
- Does strategic foresight in design boost innovation performance? And
under which conditions?
- What are cases that have transformed individual experiences,
frameworks and perspectives into a shared, understandable, and
transmittable area of insight into the future.
- How to counteract cognitive barriers and enhance foresight capacities?
- Can foresight yield the early discovery of radical innovations with
future impact?
The conference attracts speakers and attendees from across the globe,
including recognised industry professionals, international scholars and
emerging researchers operating in the creative, commercial and service
industries. We also encourage you to share this invite to relevant
researchers/practitioners with interests in this topic; please note the
submission deadline is 29 January, 2019.

DESIGN AND DEMOCRACY TRACK
Virginia Tassinari, Assistant Professor LUCA School of Arts, Belgium
Ezio Manzini, ELISABA, Spain
Liesbeth Huybrechts, University of Hasselt, Belgium
Maurizio Teli, Aalborg University, Denmark
DESIGN AND DEMOCRACY TRACK: THE BACKGROUND
The issue of design and democracy is an urgent and rather controversial
one. Democracy has always been a core theme in design research, but in
the past years it has shifted in meaning. The current discourse in
design research that has been working in a participatory way on common
issues in given local contexts, has developed an enhanced focus on
rethinking democracy. This is the topic of some recent design
conferences, such PDC2018, Nordes2017 and DRS2018, and of the DESIS
Philosophy Talk #6 Regenerating Democracy?
(www.desis-philosophytalks.org<http://www.desis-philosophytalks.org>),
from which this track originates. To reflect on the role and
responsibility of designers in a time where democracy in its various
forms is often put at risk seems an urgent matter to us. The concern for
the ways in which the democratic discourse is put at risk in many
different parts of the word is registered outside the design community
(for instance by philosophers such as Noam Chomsky), as well as within
(see for instance Manzinis and Margolins call Design Stand Up
(http://www.democracy-design.org). Therefore, the need to articulate a
discussion on this difficult matter, and to find a common vocabulary we
can share to talk about it. One of the difficulties encountered for
instance when discussing this issue, is that the word democracy is
understood in different ways, in relation to the traditions and contexts
in which it is framed. Philosophically speaking, there are diverse
discourses on democracy that currently inspire design researchers and
theorists, such as Arendt, Dewey, Negri and Hardt, Schmitt, Mouffe,
Rancire, Agamben, Rawls, Habermas, Latour, Gramsci, whose positions on
this topic are very diverse. How can these authors guide us to further
articulate this discussion? In which ways can these philosophers support
and enrich designs innovation discourses on design and democracy, and
guide our thinking in addressing sensitive and yet timely questions,
such as what design can do in what seems to be dark times for democracy,
and whether design can possibly contribute to enrich the current
democratic ecosystems, making them more strong and resilient?

EXPLORING THE REAL WORLD OF THE DESIGN IN THE DIGITAL ECONOMY
This track explores current trends, collaborations, theories and
practices in digital design both now and in the future. We welcome full
paper submissions from practitioners and academics on the following
topics:
- Reflections on current industry practice, including real-world
examples of applied design methods, methodologies, agile and lean ways
of working and cross-disciplinarity between digital designers and other
disciplines;
- Understanding industrys needs in terms of current and future digital
design skills, capabilities and competencies including the adoption, use
and trajectory of digital tools;
- Theoretical and practice-based accounts and challenges to existing
digital practices in the broadest sense and specifically relating to
user experience and service design;
- Explorations on the role that design plays, within tactical and
strategic end-to-end digital product and service production and
consumption; and
- Studies relating to the digital economy, with a specific focus on
opportunities and threats to design theory and practice; and
- Future oriented studies that provide insights into how digital data
might transform practice, outcomes and methods within the digital
economy.
BACKGROUND
The growing area of digital design is underpinned by the growth of the
broader digital economy. This is where Design Thinking transmutes from
intellectual possibility to social and economic capital and where
traditional notions of design practice, applied to the consumption of
immutable products and services is disrupted. The implications of these
radical changes need the full focus from the design community in order
to ensure that we align education, research and practice to the
trajectory of the digital economy.
As well as having relevance to the wider world, the digital context of
design is also critical in shaping practice. This context goes far
beyond accounting for the unique characteristics of digital materials
and includes how, why, where and when design is done. For example, the
tools and processes used to turn digital material into tangible products
and services are distinctively different from traditional design
domains.
Understanding the present, will form the basis of defining the necessary
foundations for developing solutions to the future. This future
orientation includes how design education and industry practice might
evolve and also align more productively than at present. To do this,
examples, cases, reflections and explorations of pertinent theoretical
and practice-based work is sought to help define, develop and explore.

18-21 June 2019 - Call for papers: Re-Designing Health Track at the ADIM
Conference, London
Call for Papers: Design Innovation Management Conference
Re-Designing Health: Transforming Systems, Practices and Care
Submission deadline is January 29, 2019.
Track 1b: Re-Designing Health: Transforming Systems, Practices and Care
There is growing recognition of the increasing complexity faced by
healthcare systems; critical issues and challenges include ageing
populations, chronic diseases, growing drug ineffectiveness, and lack of
access to comprehensive services (to name only a few examples).
Concurrently design thinking, methods and practices are increasingly
recognized as a means of addressing complex, multi-levelled and systemic
problems.
The Re-Designing Health: Transforming Systems, Practices and Care track
session brings together academics that are working inand acrossareas of
design, medicine and health. Employing design methods, practices, and
thinking to address a range of healthcare challengesfrom individual
product to large-scale policythis track provides a forum for
researchers, practitioners, students, and designers to provide evidence
for this relationship, document challenges and successes and to provide
theoretical and practical models for healthcare and design to work
collaboratively to address complex healthcare problems.
We look to identify and build research capacity to help address the
complex and significant challenges faced by society in the 21st century
and to chart new opportunities for the discipline of design. This track
looks for submissions that deal broadly with notions of design and
health and document a variety of practices, proposals and ideas.

Sustainability - Call for papers on The Future of Design for
Sustainability, guest editors Prof Tracy Bhamra & Dr Garrath Wilson,
Loughborough University, UK. Papers can be submitted up until 31st May
2019.
Design for sustainability is not the panacea we hoped it would be when
it was first introduced in the latter part of the 20th century. Today,
the health of both our environment and our societies is at a critical
state, at a breaking point, with piecemeal solutions offered as
social-media-friendly rallying points, such as the recent European
Parliament-approved ban on single-use plastics, whilst fundamental, and
arguably less exciting, issues such as loss of biodiversity,
overpopulation, and climate change are shuffled to the back.
It can be argued that the awareness of the concept of sustainability and
the need to reduce our negative impact upon the environment and society
has grown significantly and, consequently, has moved up the global
agenda. This is evidenced by the 2015 United Nations Climate Change
Conference; however, it is clear that the role of design for
sustainability within this agenda is not providing the solutions
necessary to manifest the level of change required. Traditional
approaches are not working.
This Special Issue of Sustainability is seeking papers that push the
frontier of what design for sustainability could beand possibly should
beacross the broad spectrum of design disciplines, including product
design, user experience design, service design, etc. In particular, we
invite manuscripts that question and offer alternatives to the current
thinking, strategies, and directions.

SED 2019 - Call 2019: Initiate, sustain, expand
The value of socially engaged practices in social change Socially
Engaged Design Conference (SED) is a two-day event that discusses how
researchers and practitioners propose and implement solutions to tackle
contemporary societal issues. SED 2 will explore the role of art and
design in driving social change. Under the umbrella theme of socially
engaged practices through the arts and design (current and future) the
speakers will present and debate their stance on political theories,
democracy, the actual impact of socially engaged practices, social
cities and co-design.
Submission of Abstracts: 11 January 2019
Themes
01 / Art, Design & Politics
Art and design can be used, as political instruments in the form of
activism or, as a medium to discuss possible or better futures. Politics
itself can also be understood as a form of design, since it involves
planning, decision-making and law-devising. What are the practices and
issues related to public space, democracy, equality and participation
and how can activist art and design influence the fields of democracy
and participation? What is the role of socially engaged practices in
times of political and cultural crisis?
02 / Socially Engaged Practices & Democracy
Socially engaged practices encourage participation and changes within
communities. Direct engagement is a true democratic model of tangibility
and influence that yields change where it is needed most: the places
where we live. What are the dynamics of socially engaged practices
within the current societal challenges and needs? How can we advance
democratic practice within a local level through socially engaged
practices, and how, through these practices, can we affect democracy in
our everyday lives ? Moreover, how can socially engaged practices
themselves become a democratic practice, when we deal with issues of
co-authorship and co-design?
03 / The future of Socially Engaged Practices
Our design choices and practices were and are reflected in our society.
Altering and morphing constantly upon the needs and wants of the
ever-evolving cultures we build, maintain and grow. We participate,
collaborate and act. We reconsider everything in search of social
change. Terms such as innovation, future trends, prototyping,
peer-to-peer learning and user-centric thinking constitute the
foundation of the vocabulary associated with transforming systems.
How can we create a system that allows us to tackle the tangible
problems of our society before they become one more representation of
the past? In which direction should socially engaged practices expand to
allow for even more meaningful and sustainable transformation? How can
this field start participating in decision and policy-making at the
highest political and legislative level? Where do Universities, NGOs,
startups and innovative businesses fit into the equation? In short,
where to now for the socially engaged practices?
04 / Social cities
The future of our cities is at the core of discourses taking place on
political, entrepreneurial, legal, academic and professional levels.
Dream cities (resilient, inclusive, accessible, championing equality,
environmentally, technologically and financially sustainable) are high
on the political agenda. Although some urbanised clusters are perceived
as successful social environments, others struggle to be friendly to
their inhabitants and to offer a balanced social experience.
Within this framework, can we as socially engaged practitioners propose
fresh, imaginative, financially viable and inclusive objectives and
processes to truly support a wholesome lifestyle and propel the quality
of our livelihood? Solutions that, will include citizens in their making
and, will not only allow the progression of a city (in historical,
infrastructural or financial terms) but also respect the unexpected
results of their originators? Can we fulfil these goals and still place
emphasis on small-scale change, and preserve the idiosyncrasies of
everyday life? Or are we at risk of weakening the distinctiveness of our
cities, diminishing diversity and increasing the privatisation of public
space in pursuit of all of the above?

Call For Participation: Design Culture and Somaesthetics 2019 Conference
in dialogue between post-disciplinary fields,
In the recent past, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research has
provided remarkable progress and development within the humanities and
social sciences. The early phase of this development witnessed
preliminary dialogues between separate disciplines and their
representatives who have gathered to discuss common interests. The
initial goal was to understand each other, to recognize common topics of
research. This phase induced productive dialogues but did not lead to
long lasting, organized post-disciplinary projects, let alone
integrative conceptual frameworks.
The latter only started in a second phase, when emerging
post-disciplinary fields began to make suggestions for research
platforms that were more defined and methodologically better founded.
Somaesthetics, initiated by Richard Shusterman, and design culture
studies, initiated by Guy Julier among others, are two among these most
promising new post-disciplines.
Design discourses, practices and products that are constituted in the
synergy of all our senses are the protagonists of design culture studies
that takes design culture as a flow of cultural products produced by
social practices and reflected in cultural discourses. To Juliers mind,
design culture as an object of study includes both the material and
immaterial aspects of everyday life. At the same time, somaesthetics
explores and reconceptualizes the focal point and ultimate reference of
human environments, products, practices and discourses, namely, the
embodied experience. Whereas somaesthetics reflects the pragmatist
understanding of philosophy as a means of improving experience through a
reflective art of living, it defines itself as a tool for designing good
life. According to Shusterman, somaesthetics is the critical,
meliorative study of the experience and the use of ones body as a locus
of sensory-aesthetic appreciation and creative self-fashioning devoted
to the knowledge, discourses and disciplines that structure such somatic
care or can improve it.
Both design culture studies and somaesthetics are interested in
body-mind interactions and both include theory, methodology and practice
alike within their action radius.
The purpose of this conference is to take a step backward and address
design theorists, philosophers, anthropologists, aestheticians, social
scientists, healthcare professionals, technology experts, artists,
designers and educators to discuss the parallel and complementary
possibilities of these post-disciplinary approaches in the spirit of
initial dialogue and pragmatic goodwill in order to create platforms of
fulfilling and fruitful future collaborations.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Somaesthetic aspects of user experience
Virtual reality, immersive technologies
Posthumanism, Artificial intelligence and embodiedness
Human-computer interaction
Ambient experience design
Atmospheres in human environments
Social body and experience society
Everyday aesthetics
Object biography, material memory and material engagement
We are expecting original and unpublished articles. A selection of the
papers will be published in the forthcoming issues of the peer-reviewed,
online, academic research journals /The Journal of Somaesthetics/ and
/Pragmatism Today/ or in a volume on somaesthetics and design based on
the conference and published in the Brill series /Studies in
Somaesthetics/.

Call for Papers - Deep Learning for Design
Deep Learning for Engineering Design
A Thematic Collection in the Design Science Journal
Overview
Machine learning is generally concerned with the development of
computational systems that can improve their performance of a task with
experience (typically in the form of data). Deep learning is a subset of
machine learning that seeks to improve performance and robustness of
computational systems by imbuing them with the ability to construct
internal representations of the data at varying degrees of abstraction.
Deep neural networks are an increasingly common method within these
broader categories. Over the last decade they have proven particularly
useful for a variety of tasks including image recognition, sparking a
variety of applications to related tasks in design. These have spanned
architecture, mechanical design, product design, and game design.
However, the relationship that these and other applications of deep
learning have to the existing human stakeholders in design needs further
exploration. In what way can deep learning augment or automate the
behaviors of designers? In what way can it allow designers to better
capture and respond to the needs, states, or behaviors of users and
customers? How does deep learning connect to existing theoretical design
frameworks?
The aim of this thematic collection is to bring together leading edge
research that focuses on the intersection of design and deep learning.
Design Science is an archival publication venue that has a
multidisciplinary readership. Since it is an online journal, papers in a
Thematic Collection are published immediately upon acceptance. In
keeping with open access principles, contributors are encouraged to make
relevant software for their submission publicly accessible (e.g., as a
GitHub repository or a Journal of Open-Source Software submission).
The deadline for full submissions is 31 May 2019.
Collection Theme Topics
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following
related to deep learning:
- Automating evaluation, analysis of potential solutions
- Enabling robust yet efficient simulations of complex systems
- Creating rich virtual worlds
- Automating the synthesis of novel solution concepts
- Facilitating intelligent interactive systems via machine learning
constructs
- Engaging in human/machine co-creative design
- Leveraging deep learning for improved agent-based systems
- Generating unique design representations afforded by deep learning

Call for Papers: International Journal of Food Design
Special Issue: Materiality between food and design
Full paper due: 1 June 2019
https://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/journals/view-Journal,id=246/view,page=
2/
Call for papers
The cross-pollination between the worlds of food and design started when
eating transformed from a purely biological necessity into a cultural
phenomenon. In addition, innovation in the field of food may have a
significant impact on social behaviour. The contribution of design to
the food realm is multifaceted and goes from the material dimension to
the most immaterial one. Design and food interact on several overlapping
layers: material (product), immaterial (culture, experience, sensory)
but also prospective (thought, speculation). In design circles, food has
emerged as an inspiring area of exploration.
One of the most prominent manifestations of designers new fascination
with food is the way designers now consider foodstuffs as a material to
shape along the project process. Food can be transformed into matter
capable of allowing different and exciting relationships between human
and artefact. Not only on the aesthetic level, but also facilitating new
behaviors linked for example to waste reduction.
Like wood, metals and plastics, food is something designers can explore
in the workshop, and experiment with modelling its properties and
qualities. This contemporary approach to matters is changing the
fundamental rules of their development, and today almost everything can
be considered a raw material from which to generate new experiences.
This tendency towards experimentation and tinkering has also
incorporated the food that numerous designers consider an appealing area
to investigate the material world.
This special issue wants to focus on the world of food in its
relationship with the design of materials, inquiring both the role of
materials in shaping the experience of food and vice versa, the food
potential in generating meaningful material experiences.
To give just a few examples of questions that we would like to address:
Could food sources be introduced to the vast world of production
materials? Is it possible for designers to consider the idea of the
edible materials as a viable cultural model for the reduction of waste?
Considering food as a raw material, can it lead to new solutions and the
development of alternative and more sustainable materials? Could we take
into consideration the food aesthetic as a creative element to design
materials? How could it influence the languages and aesthetics of the
materials we are used to? How should designers deal with the
relationship with new and traditional technologies to transform food
into materials (3d printing, growing, low tech forming processes, and so
on)? How have materials influenced the culture of food (preparation,
conservation, fruition) and how have they affected and modified people's
behaviour? Could we consider materials as facilitators and tool makers
(metal and silicone, for example) for cooking and preparing food? Can
materials participate in the staging of food and how? How do the food
and the objects materiality interact in different cultures (in the past,
present, and future)?
We welcome both empirical work and theoretically-informed design case
studies since both are needed to creatively tackle the above and many
other questions in this field, especially those that address the issue
from a cultural and speculative perspective.
Suggested Research Themes:
Possible research themes in the domain of food and materials for design
include, but are not limited to:
- Food as material and material as food (edible materials)
- Circular economies and food waste exploitation
- Growing materials in the domain of food design
- DIY-Materials from food waste
- Cultural reflections and speculative thinking
- New technologies in preparation and presentation, as 3D printing and
augmented reality

Creative-Economy-Africa
CALL FOR PAPERS
In recent years there has been a growing interest in the role that
cultural and creative industries (CCIs) play in the Global South- in
terms of their economic contribution and connections to social change
and cultural engagement (UNESCO, 2013). To contribute to this field and
to support related policy agendas, this special session aims to bring
together international researchers and policy makers engaged with
understanding or developing creative economies in Africa. It aims to
engage with the following research questions: what role can CCIs play in
the development of African countries? What challenges and opportunities
emerge with the development of CCIs in Africa? What role can policy
(national and international) play in this context? The session (or
sessions) will also feature a discussant to enable critical reflection
on current research and policy initiatives. To explore these questions
in greater detail, this session welcomes papers from diverseconceptual,
empirical and geographical perspectives which engage with the following
and related themes:
- The role of education and career development opportunities for CCIs
practitioners in Africa;
- The interconnection between creative and social economies in Africa
context;
- The adoption and adaption of creative cities frameworks across African
cities;
- The role of geography and mobilities in the development of CCIs in
Africa;
- The emergence of co-working and networks to facilitate CCIs
development;
- The roles and functions of various intermediaries in supporting CCIs
in Africa;
- The role of policy (national and international) in supporting CCIs
development;
- Connections between cultural and creative industries and youth
employment and work;
- Connections between Africa and other countries in relation to CCIs via
collaborations or policy transfer.
The special session builds on the work of an AHRC funded research
networkhttp://www.creative-economy-africa.org.uk. The session aims to
contribute to a better understanding of the creative economies in
African countries and to explore strategies to encourage and enable
sustainable context-specific cultural, social and economic development.
The papers and authors will be invited to share findings via the project
blog and website or contribute to an edited book and policy report.

18-19 July 2019 - TRACEY Drawing Research Network Conference
Embodied Drawing Call for Papers
Conveners: Drawing Research Group, Loughborough University
The conference aims to explore the notion of embodied drawing. By
embodied drawing we suggest that embodied could be synonymous with the
act of drawing, that drawing is an act of embodiment. As such, the
making of a mark expands to become an act of mediation. Yet if all
bodies are mediat(ing)ed, they too mark the skins and surfaces of other
bodies in the briefest immediacies in traces of gesture, events, at and
through the borderline. A curious folding of/with materiality a
drawing. And as drawing expands there come lines of flight and queer
becomings: of further technological mediations, prostheses, computer
augmented realities, boundary-making practices that offer up new forms
of embodiment, of bodies yet to be named, without outline. And so we
ask; what does it mean to have a body? What can they do? What can be
drawn?
The conference aims to provide a space for discussion, dissemination and
the exchange of knowledge and suggests the following as starting points
in the discussion, as possible themes, as prompts and as provocations:
- How can a body situate sensation through/in drawing?
- How can drawing be expanded to explore sound, movement, duration, and
wider fields?
- How can subjectivity and personal social/ethical commitment be
produced through body-mediated drawing acts?
- How can gender be enacted through the material-semiotic practices of
drawing?
- Can a computer be embodied/does an algorithm possess a body/ is it a
prosthesis?
The conveners would like to invite proposals for either a 20-minute
presentation or a two-hour workshop from practitioners, theorists and
practitioner-researchers, which aim to generate debate around the
concept of embodied drawing. Please email your proposals to Tina Harvey
[log in to unmask] including DRN 2019 Conference Abstract in the
subject line.
Deadline: Friday 1st February 2019

5 May 2019 - ACM CHI workshop
Workshop Abstract:
The HCI community is experiencing a resurgence of interest in the
ethical, social, and political dimensions of HCI research and practice.
Despite increased attention to these issues is not always clear that our
community has the tools or training to adequately think through some of
the complex issues that these commitments raise. In this workshop, we
will explore the creative use of HCI methods and concepts such as design
fiction or speculative design to help anticipate and reflect on the
potential downsides of our technology design, research, and
implementation. How can these tools help us to critique some of the
assumptions, metaphors, and patterns that drive our field forward? Can
we, by intentionally adopting the personas of would-be evil-doers, learn
something about how better to accomplish HCI for Good?
Details:
This full-day workshop will take place Sunday May 5, 2019 in Glasgow
Scotland as part of the 2019 ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in
Computing Systems <https://chi2019.acm.org/>.
Submission Guidelines:
Potential participants should submit a 2-4 page interest statement in
the ACM extended abstract format. Please email proposals to
[log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> by February 12, 2019. We
seek participants from a wide range of disciplinary and personal
backgrounds, creativity encouraged!
This statement should articulate a negative use or potential misuse of a
technology; ideally focusing on technologies that are emerging now and
that are relevant to the HCI community. You may present this statement
using various forms including, but not limited to, design fictions,
short stories, description of the authors experiences with the negative
consequences of HCI technologies, or concept art with a supporting
narrative. We would also accept statements that discuss methodologies
for articulating and presenting negative impacts and uses of technology
in provocative and pedagogical manners. In the workshop, feedback will
be given on the affordances and limits of certain presentation styles
including a collective review on how to make them most relevant to
designers, technologists, and academics.
Authors will be invited to participate in the workshop based on the
originality and quality of their statements and their potential to
contribute to a productive discussion. Workshop organizers will
coordinate pre-workshop peer commentary, such that each participant will
receive detailed feedback from at least two other participants on their
own submission during the workshop.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
[this may be of primary interest to UK academics - ed.]
Research England publishes first KEF documents ahead of consultation
Research England has published three documents that will help higher
education institutions (HEIs) prepare for the upcoming consultation on
the future Knowledge Exchange Framework (KEF).
The first report,Summary of KEF call for evidence responses, summarises
the key points that have emerged from evidence submitted to Research
England on suitable approaches to and data to use in the KEF. This
call for evidence, issued in December 2017, sought suggestions on how to
make sure the KEF compares HEIs in a fair and meaningful way, what data
could be used to inform the KEF, and how KEF metrics should be
visualised in an accessible and useful way. The second report,KEF
Cluster Analysis Report, includes an initial cluster analysis of English
HEIs that will inform the development of KEF metrics. Research England
will further develop this analysis, including manually assigning some
universities to different clusters ahead of the consultation,
particularly where a cluster contains a small number of HEIs. Finally, a
technical note,KEF Technical Note, describes the role of other sources
of UK Research and Innovation data in the development of the KEF.
Research Englands Director of Knowledge Exchange, Alice Frost, said:
There has been a great deal of work going on behind the scenes at
Research England and in collaboration with our stakeholders, including
groups chaired by Professor Richard Jones of the University of Sheffield
and Vice-Chancellor of Keele University, Professor Trevor McMillan, to
develop the KEF since the call for evidence in December 2017. Its
essential we get a broad range of views to ensure the KEF is a useful
tool for universities and users. We hope this information will give an
indication of the direction of travel and help HEIs prepare for the
consultation. The consultation on the KEF will open towards the end of
2018 and close in early 2019.
At the same time as the consultation launch, Research England will
publish David Sweeneys advice to the Minister of State for Universities,
Science, Research and Innovation on the development of the KEF, together
with the ministers response. A technical advisory group for the KEF,
chaired by Professor Richard Jones of the University of Sheffield,
advised David Sweeney on the development of the KEF metrics approach.
Research England is working with various other organisations to develop
the KEF, including the Office for Students, universities, learned
societies,PraxisAuril, theNational Centre for Universities and Business
(NCUB), the devolved funding councils and executive bodies, and other
UKRI councils.
Futurescan 4: Valuing Practice 23rd 24th January 2019 University of
Bolton, UK
REGISTRATION OPEN
Fashion and textiles practice intersects traditional processes and
innovative technologies. Tacit knowledge acquired through hand skills,
making, utilising equipment and working with processes is fundamental to
developing understanding. Although practical learning is valued, the
teaching of creative and making subjects is under threat in formal
education. Within the fashion and textile industries there are skills
shortages. Heritage crafts risk being lost as digital technologies and
automation impact upon future generations.
The Association of Fashion & Textile Courses (FTC) forthcoming
conference Futurescan 4: Valuing Practice, provides an international
forum for the dissemination of research, creative practice and pedagogy
surrounding fashion and textiles. Contributions from established and
early career researchers, postgraduates, practitioners, makers and
educators will be presented under the following topics:
Valuing Artisan Skills, Drawing and Making Learning from History,
Tradition and Industry Collaborating and Cross-disciplinary Working
Integrating and Connecting Digital Technologies Designing Responsibly
and Working Sustainably Promoting Diversity, Employability and Community
Investigating Creative Processes and Pedagogy
The conference will include keynote speaker presentations, full papers
(20-minute presentations), short papers (10-minute presentations) and an
exhibition of practice-based work.

Introducing the DESIGN PHILOSOPHY READER
The Design Philosophy Reader Edited by Anne-Marie Wills
Order your inspection copy today
What is Design Philosophy, why is it needed, what can it do and where is
it going? Assembling key classic and contemporary writings in one
volume, The Design Philosophy Reader answers these vital questions
and offers insights that can potentially change the way you think and
practice design.
The reader comprises eight thematic sections, each featuring a short
introduction and an annotated bibliography. It considers social,
graphic, product and industrial design, and presents the writings of
such leading design thinkers and philosophers as Deleuze and Heidegger,
Aristotle and Plato. With texts ranging from philosophically informed
writing on design and culture, to ancient and contemporary philosophy
which addresses the concept of design, this is a pioneering work that
interrogates the meaning, role and future of Design Philosophy.
Anne-Marie Willis is Visiting Professor of Architecture and the Built
Environment at the University of Adelaide, Australia and editor of
Design Philosophy Papers at The Studio at the Edge of the World.

13-15 February 2019 - Designing Out Crime iDOC2019, Perth
Are you interested in using Design to reduce crime and terrorism?
Do you know that designs that facilitate crime or implicitly encourage
crime can result in financial and legal liabilities for designers and
sponsors? (Similar to liabilities for health and safety risks)
Are you interested in using design to support privacy of individuals and
control over their own lives?
Professional use of Design Out Crime and Crime Prevention Through
Environmental Design (CPTED) methods is rapidly becoming a significant
factor in design, and for reducing liability from crime risks due to
design.
With the rapid uptake of intelligent devices, Smart Cities, the
increasingly digital nature of life, transition to 24 hour cities, the
use of real-time big data, advanced transport and communication systems
(including autonomous vehicles), and the design of environments to
counter-terrorism, the methods employed in Design Out Crime and CPTED
are rapidly evolving.
If you are not up to date with the evolution of Design Out Crime and
CPTED approaches we suggest you attend the iDOC2019 International Design
Out Crime and CPTED conference.
The iDOC2019 International Design Out Crime and CPTED conference, 13-15
Feb 2019, Perth, Western Australia provides:
- Expert information on current CPTED practices for designers in all
realms.
- New directions in CPTED
- Expert guidance on using CPTED in night-time economy environments -
New criminological research, Machine Learning and Big Data analyses
linking crime and Design
- Planning and designing the environment for counter-terrorism
- Planning and Landscape design for event environment
- Training and workshops on Design Out Crime and CPTED topics.
iDOC2019 is the major regional International CPTED Society conference
for 2019.
Who should attend?
- Everyone in all fields of Design and Design Research who an interest
in improving the essential inclusion of crime prevention into design
practices and outcomes.
- All those in Design interested in minimizing their legal and financial
liabilities due to crime risks associated design decisions.
iDOC2019 is jointly organized by the Edith Cowan University Sellenger
Centre, the International CPTED Association and the Design Out Crime and
CPTED Centre.
The iDOC2019 conference will be held in Perth which is delightfully warm
and close to Indian ocean beaches and to many easily accessible areas of
outstanding natural beauty including whale watching and swimming with
the Ningaloo Whale Sharks. It is also close to large night life area,
historic Fremantle, wine regions of Margaret River and good surfing.
I would be very grateful if you would forward this email to your
colleagues who may be interested in attending and or presenting.
And, if you have useful experience in using CPTED and Design Out Crime
that you can share with others, we welcome submission of presentations.
