CFP: Berlin Design Conference

Third International Conference on Design Principles and Practices
Berlin, Germany
15-17 February 2009
http://www.Design-Conference.com

This conference is a place to explore the meaning and purpose of
‘design’, as well as speaking in grounded ways about the task of
design and the use of designed artifacts and processes. The
conference is a cross-disciplinary forum which brings together
researchers, teachers and practitioners to discuss the nature and
future of design. The resulting conversations weave between the
theoretical and the empirical, research and application, market
pragmatics and social idealism.

In professional and disciplinary terms, the Conference traverses a broad sweep to construct a transdisciplinary dialogue which
encompasses the perspectives and practices of: anthropology,
architecture, art, artificial intelligence, business, cognitive
science, communication studies, computer science, cultural studies, design studies, education, e-learning, engineering, ergonomics, fashion, graphic design, history, information systems, industrial design, industrial engineering, instructional design, interior design, interaction design, interface design, journalism, landscape architecture, law, linguistics and semiotics, management, media and entertainment, psychology, sociology, software engineering, technical communication, telecommunications, urban planning and visual design.

As well as impressive line-up of international main speakers, the
Conference will also include numerous paper, workshop and colloquium presentations by practitioners, teachers and researchers. We would particularly like to invite you to respond to the Conference Call-for-Papers. Presenters may choose to submit written papers for publication in the fully refereed International Journal of Design Principles and Practices. If you are unable to attend the Conference in person, virtual registrations are also available which allow you to submit a paper for refereeing and possible publication in this fully refereed academic Journal, as well as access to the electronic version of the Conference proceedings.

Proposals are reviewed within four weeks of submission. Full details of the Conference, including an online proposal submission form, are to be found at the Conference website – http://www.Design-Conference.com

We look forward to receiving your proposal and hope you will be able
to join us in Berlin in February 2009.

Yours Sincerely,

Marianne Wagner-Simon
For the Advisory Board, International Conference on Design Principles
and Practices
