Final Call for Papers / Designs for the 2014 Fashion And Communication
SYMPOSIUM May 2-3, 2014, St. Paul,
Minnesota<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2013/11/01/final-call-for-papers-designs-for-the-2014-fashion-and-communication-symposium-may-2-3-2014-st-paul-minnesota/>
NOVEMBER 1, 2013
Fashion is change and because it is change, fashion impacts nearly every
aspect of our lives from the language we speak, the furniture we use, the
homes we live in, the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, and the food we
eat. Fashion also reflects social consensus and to achieve consensus we
must have communication. Thus, for our third symposium we focus on
relationships between fashion and communication. We are interested in
providing opportunities to share research findings, innovative teaching
strategies, and designs that explore and investigate issues related to
communication and fashion.
The symposium has an inclusive definition of the term “fashion”. While
fashion is often understood to center on apparel choices, fashion can be
recognized as the current style or way of behaving in any field. Thus,
proposals are welcome from divergent fields such as architecture,
anthropology, cultural studies, history, interior design, graphic design,
psychology, sociology, and women’s studies among others.

KEER2014: International Conference on Kansei Engineering and Emotion
Research 2014
Dates: 11-13 June 2014
Location: Linköping, Sweden
Website: http://www.keer2014.org
Deadline for submission of abstracts: 31 October 2014
The KEER2014 is the 5th event in a conference series initialized by the
Japan Society of Kansei Engineering (JSKE).The KEER2014 is jointly
organized by the JSKE, by the Taiwan Institute of Kansei (TIK), and
by Linköping University (LiU), with the participation of the new European
Kansei Group (EGK). It will be hosted by Linköping University in Linköping,
Sweden.
Linköping University (LiU) was founded in 1968 and is now regarded as one
of the leading universities in Sweden. LiU has been one of the first
universities working with affective engineering in Europe in the
early 1980ies. Since 1999, Kansei research has been a profound topic
of research at LiU.Therefore, it is with great pleasure that LiU is
inviting you to KEER2014 to celebrate together this long involvement in the
Kansei community.
Conference scope
The scope of Kansei research is vast. Hence, in a spirit
of interdisciplinary and intercultural sharing, the conference will attempt
to engage on most facets of the areas in which Kansei research is carried
out. The KEER2014 will therefore be the opportunity to shed light on the
multiple disciplines of Kansei and emotion research.
Please visit http://www.keer2014.org for further and updated information
about how to contribute.

Call for Papers<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2013/10/14/call-for-papers/>
OCTOBER 14, 2013
Open call for papers for Special Issue of Interacting with Computers
(Oxford University Press) on INTUITIVE INTERACTION
Intuitive interaction or intuitive use has been much talked about but until
recently not much researched. This issue seeks to bring together the
current state of the art in intuitive interaction research, which will then
be easily accessible to a wide audience, and will also encourage take-up of
principles and ideas for implementing intuitive interaction into user
interfaces
Each paper should include a rigorous definition of intuitive interaction or
intuitive use (your own or cited from previous work). Intuitive interaction
should be the main focus of the research reported in the paper.
Scope includes intuitive interaction:
• for the general population
• for older, younger or disabled people
• for other particular groups
Also of interest are:
• methodology around researching intuitive interaction
• how to test products or interfaces for intuitive interaction
• how to design for intuitive interaction
• tools or methods than can be applied by designers or developers to design
for intuitive interaction
• other issues relevant to the research, understanding and application of
intuitive interaction.
“Interaction” or “use” can include but is not limited to interaction with:
• computers
• interfaces
• games
• products
• systems
Full papers to be submitted online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iwc
Deadline for submission of full papers 15th March 2014
Editors of the special issue are Associate Professor Alethea Blackler and
Professor Vesna Popovic.
Alethea Blackler (PhD) is an Associate Professor in the School of Design
and Leader of the Intuitive Interaction theme at the People and Systems Lab
at Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. She has
conducted ten studies into Intuitive Interaction over the past 12 years, in
conjunction with colleagues and students and has published on the topic for
the past 11 years.
Vesna Popovic (PhD) is a Professor in Industrial Design at Queensland
University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. Her research focus is within
experience and expertise, intuitive interaction and intuitive navigation
domains. She was founder of People and Systems Lab at QUT. Vesna is a
Fellow of the Design Research Society and the Design Institute of Australia.

Eco-Architecture 2014: 5th Intl Conf on Harmonization between Architecture
and Nature (Sep 2014,
Italy)<http://designcalls.wordpress.com/2013/10/08/eco-architecture-2014-5th-intl-conf-on-harmonization-between-architecture-and-nature-sep-2014-italy/>
OCTOBER 8, 2013
Dates: 24-26 September 2014
Location: Siena, Italy
Website: http://www.wessex.ac.uk/14-conferences/eco-architecture-2014.html
Deadline for submission of abstracts: ASAP
The fifth International Conference on Harmonisation between Architecture
and Nature (Eco-Architecture 2014) follows the four successful meetings
which started in the New Forest, home of the Wessex Institute of
Technology, in 2006; and continued in the Algarve (2008); A Coruña (2010)
and the island of Kos (2012).
Eco-Architecture implies a new approach to the design process intended to
harmonise its products with nature. This involves ideas such as minimum use
of energy at each stage of the building process, taking into account the
amount required during the extraction and transportation of materials,
their fabrication, assembly, building erection, maintenance and eventual
future recycling. Another important issue is the adaptation of the
architectural design to the natural environment, learning from nature and
long time honoured samples of traditional constructions.
