Call outline:

The buildings, towns and cities we inhabit are physical entities created 
in the past, experienced in the present, and projected to inform the 
future. The same can be said of the artefacts we use daily: designed 
furniture in the home, the mobile devices in our hands, the vehicles we 
see on our streets…
However, each of these places, buildings and products had, at their 
inception, social and cultural roles beyond their ‘object’ status. They 
continue to have them today. What we understand an object to be then, is 
a complex question of material, digital and social import, and an 
intricate play of the tangible and intangible identities. Increasingly, 
it is also a question of hybrid experiences and overlaid histories.
This complexity is even more pronounced in the case of digital artefacts 
and experiences such as computational design, VR simulations of ancient 
buildings, mobile apps, digital photography or virtual exhibitions. 
Intangible at the very moment of their inception, such designed 
artifacts not only blur the difference between the object and 
experience, but, increasingly, the past and the present.
This conference addresses the range of issues connected to this scenario 
from various discipline standpoints.
