Torino
10 - 12th July 2008
The conference seeks to make a significant contribution to a necessary transformation that involves changing the direction of current changes toward a sustainable future.
It specifically intends to outline the state-of-the-art of design research in terms of visions, proposals and tools with which design can actively and positively take part in the wider social learning process that will have to take place.
At the heart of the conference, design researchers will present concrete and documentable research results.
This will be complemented by invited keynote speaker presentations that will help paint a clearer picture of the common ground from which the conference will take off.
More about conference themes and aims has been uploaded in the website.
The conference will have an International Advisory Committee including members from different countries and continents.
Abstracts will be evaluated and selected by a blind peer review process.
All selected and presented papers will be published on line, and placed in the conference website in printable form.
The best papers and the presentations of the keynote speakers will be published in book form.
In addition to the oral presentations, the conference will include an exhibition of visualisations.
These will not take the form of traditional scientific posters, but will present visions and proposals (in other words, more communicative reports of design research in progress).
