Mitteleuropa Foundation
BISCA-2002 Bolzano International Schools In Cognitive Analysis
DESIGN AND COGNITION
Bolzano, Italy ---- September 2-6, 2002
Most of the world that we know is designed. Furthermore, almost everyone in
the Western world has become a designer at their personal computer (e.g.,
publishing their own web-pages). Design has become everyone's domain, and
the 21st century communicates via design. This has made it extremely
important to understand the relation between design and cognition. This
school brings together four speakers who are internationally known for their
work in the areas of design and cognition.
Speakers:
John Gero (Sydney)
Michael Leyton (Rutgers)
Michael J. Pratt (Cranfield)
Gerard Schmitt (Zurich)
Concluding lecture by Daniel Liebeskind on Friday 6, at 7 pm
