>SUBMISSION OF PAPERS THAT INCLUDE PRACTICE-BASED RESEARCH OUTPUTS
>
>The conference welcomes the submission of papers that consist of
>practice based research.  Facilities will be made available during
>the conference to exhibit 2-D and 3-D examples of design research.
>This may take the form of photographs, printouts, drawings, models,
>software applications, prototypes or other examples of research
>work in progress.  An exhibition area will be available during the
>conference to display this work.
>
>
>What is Practice Based Research?
>
>The term 'practice-based' research may require some clarification.
>For the purpose of this conference it refers to research that has
>involved the development of 2 and 3 dimensional artifacts in response
>to research questions.  Essentially there is no difference between
>this category of research and any other formally constructed
>investigation.  The work can not speak for its self.  A written
>commentary is required to contextualise the work and to explain its
>significance and origin.  The term 'practice based research' has in
>some contexts been used to describe professional practice.  However
>the conference is only prepared to accept examples of practice based
>research that has been developed in response to a formal research
>enquiry.
>
>What you have to provide
>
>If you wish to submit a practice-based 'paper' you should include the
>following:
>
>. A 300-word abstract detailing the research project.  This should
>include a title, authors, affiliations, and synopsis of the research.
>
>. Up to six 35mm slides of the work.  The slides must be labeled
>clearly.  You should provide a list of the slides on a separate sheet,
>including a caption and short description of the content with overall
>dimensions and approximate value for insurance purposes.
>
>An exhibition space will be established during the conference for the
>presentation of practice based papers.  This will include a seating
>area and projection equipment.  The exhibition will remain in place
>throughout the conference.  Exhibitors/presenters will be allocated a
>time for presenting their papers to fellow delegates.  Presentations
>will take place in the exhibition area along side the exhibited work.
>
>Details of the exhibition facilities (space, plinths, hanging
>system and lighting) will be communicated directly to the presenter
>of the work following acceptance of the paper for inclusion in the
>conference.  Entries in the conference proceedings will include an
>illustrated abstract of the paper.  Delegates presenting practice
>based papers will be responsible for transporting and hanging
>their work and removing the exhibits at the end of the conference.
>Insurance for the exhibition will be taken out by the conference
>organisers to cover accidental damage or theft, for the duration of
>the conference only.
>
>Practice-based proposals should be submitted to Vasco Branco:
>vas@ca.ua.pt.
