Design Histories Through and From Sources 
AIS/Design. Storia e Ricerche - No. 10 - October 2017
 
“AIS/Design. Storia e Ricerche”, the online, open-access, peer-reviewed journal of the Italian Association of Design Historians, will celebrate the publication of its 10th issue in 2017.
 
Since its founding in 2013, the journal has provided a historical perspective on such topics as the design of materials (No. 4), design for the food industry (No. 5), the relationship of designers with writing (No. 6 ), the designer's workspace (No. 7). Two more thematic issues are currently under preparation, dedicated to the digital revolution in the field of graphic design (No. 8, October 2016) and to the figure of the designer/educator Enzo Frateili (No. 9, March 2017).

On the occasion of its 10th release (October 2017), “AIS/Design. Storia e Ricerche” will publish a miscellaneous issue that will feature research studies on a variety of topics proposed by the authors, with a specific focus on the use of primary sources. The fil rouge of the issue will therefore be methodological.

This issue of the journal, titled “Design Histories Through and From Sources”, aims to gather original contributions based on the examination, study and interpretation of primary sources available in different forms – physical/analogue or digital – including textual, iconographic or multimedia sources, archival files as well as oral testimony. We are looking for papers that will not only delve into the analysis of specific sources, but will also reflect on the use of these sources and on the challenges and opportunities they represent for the historiography of design.
  
Contemporary historical narrative tends to privilege storytelling, rather than relying on the collection, organization, comparative study and interpretation of first-hand data and information.
At the same time, the growing number of sources and documents, often characterised by instability, typological heterogeneity, different media and formats, uncertainty with regards to their context of reference (multimedia and digital, for example, or oral sources), makes the historian's work more challenging and broadens the scope of history making.

Issue 10 of “AIS/Design. Storia e Ricerche” is seeking articles that:
	
• offer an original reconstruction of stories of design and design culture (that may even contrast with previous, accepted interpretations) based on the study of primary sources, and that will also critically discuss the specificity of the sources consulted and contextualise their use in the phases of research and interpretation;

• reflect more broadly (again on the basis of first-hand knowledge and experience of primary sources) on the potential of primary sources to provide new perspectives on the history of design; on the challenges and methodological opportunities offered by the heterogeneity of sources, formats and media; on the types of sources that can be used to address the multiple histories of design (e.g. in different national contexts); on the role and contribution of the various figures involved in the processes of preservation, interpretation and utilization of sources, from historians to people who work in archives, to designers themselves.

TYPES of CONTRIBUTIONS and MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION

All proposed contributions (in Italian or English) must be original texts.

Full papers will be accompanied by a short abstract (max. 150 words), a list of 5 keywords, and by a short biographical note (max. 150 words).
