in Perth Australia in 2012 the call says;
The common desire to be a designer is to create and produce speculative and/or tangible works. For designers who have shifted into education and by association research practice, the framing of research through design and with design has been a challenge. Recently research authorities have broadened their fields to validate creative work in a variety of manifestations. This ‘becoming’ of creative work as research not only addresses the separation [or frustrations] for the design practitioner/educator but also prompts critical reflection on the process and fields of creative work as research.
The state of ‘becoming’ as to happen, from the verb ‘hap’ [as spontaneous event or display] is the tenet to engender creative research output for the Exhibition Interior: a State of Becoming. The curators of the exhibition Interior: a State of Becoming invite proposals from researchers in interior architecture and interior design education and practice to submit proposals of speculative and or tangible creative work for exhibition. The exhibition will run in conjunction with the 2012 IDEA Symposium Interior: a State of Becoming. Therefore similar to the call for written papers, responses to the same provocation and themes of the 2012 IDEA Symposium are sought for the exhibition. Proposals may include active and static, virtual and non-virtual, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional, constructed, speculative or performative piece/pieces or installations.
I've been looking at situated technologies as a way of framing an extension of the L.E.D Zeppelin project
some links to that here..
which could be a good model for a work shop at ISEA 2012
