Workshop:
SHAPES 2.0. The Shape of Things

at the World Congress and School on Universal Logic

This workshop will provide an interdisciplinary platform for the discussion of all topics connected to shape (broadly understood): perspectives from psycho-linguistics, ontology, computer science, mathematics, aesthetics, cognitive science and beyond are welcome to contribute and participate in the workshop. We seek to facilitate a discussion between researchers from all disciplines interested in representing shape and reasoning about it. This includes formal, cognitive, linguistic, engineering and/or philosophical aspects of space, as well as their application in the sciences and in the arts.

Co-Chairs:

Oliver Kutz (University of Bremen, Germany)
Mehul Bhatt (University of Bremen, Germany)
Paulo Santos (FEI Brazil)
Stefano Borgo (KRDB Free University of Bolzano, Italy)

Symposium on:
Spatial Cognition for Architectural Design

November 2011, New York, USA

This symposium provides a platform to discuss the cognitive and computational foundations that would underlie the development of next-generation design systems, design practices, and designer-centred assistive frameworks & technologies encompassing the multi-faceted nature of professional architectural design. The symposium particularly focusses on aspects of (architectural) spatial cognition and spatial computing that relate to processes of Design Tools and Assistive Frameworks, real-world Design Practice, and Design Learning & Education.

Co-Chairs:

Mehul Bhatt, University of Bremen, Germany
Christoph Hölscher, University of Freiburg, Germany
Thomas F. Shipley, Temple University, USA
