Friends,
The current issue of the International Journal of Design was released yesterday.
The International Journal of Design is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to publishing research papers in all fields of design, including industrial design, visual communication design, interface design, animation and game design, architectural design, urban design, and other design related fields. It aims to provide an international forum for the exchange of ideas and findings from researchers across different cultures and encourages research on the impact of cultural factors on design theory and practice. It also seeks to promote the transfer of knowledge between professionals in academia and industry by emphasizing research in which results are of interest or applicable to design practices.
The editors are now seeking papers for a special issue on Cultural Aspects of Interaction Design. The special issue editors are Prof. Keiichi Sato of the Institute of Design at Illinois Institute of Technology and Prof. Kuohsiang Chen of the Department and Institute of Industrial Design at National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan.
The deadline is February 28, 2008.
To read the current issue and to get more information on proposing articles for the special issue, please visit the journal web site at:
With warm wishes for 2008.
