Open Call for Papers for the conference “Commons in Design”, FHNW Academy of Art and Design, Basel, Switzerland, from February 15–17, 2023.
In the context of the “Commons in Design” SNSF research project and a conference planned for 15-17th of February 2023, we have the pleasure to announce an open call for papers (here pdf), short papers/case studies or workshops related to the following themes:
1. Design, Gender, Working Environment
2: Design, Activism, Body and Ecology
3: Design, Networks and Digital Fabrication
We aim to explore the relevance of commons and commoning within design as a discipline and field of research. The conference seeks to shed light on the complexity of commons and commoning from a design perspective and to present future models and scenarios pointing towards a more sustainable, just and peaceful world. Central to this is the question of how principles of commoning can benefit design processes, methods, and ways of working, ultimately changing the way designers position themselves.
Academics, practitioners, theoreticians, critics, educators or students related to the field of design and/or commons, are welcome to submit their abstracts (max. 400 words) until May 31st, 2022. For more details about the conference and the submission visit our website: commons-in-design.ch.
Deadline for submission of abstracts: May 31, 2022
