In recent years, perhaps stimulated by the growing awareness of the power of digital technologies, there have been calls for engineers and designers to advance values ‘by design’, such as democracy, participation, privacy and transparency. This builds on earlier inclusive design and access-for-all initiatives. But not all encounters with technologies are fulfilling, and some are designed to exclude or harm people, animals and nature. This workshop focuses on those technologies that could be described as hostile or exclusionary by design.
The workshop is supported by the Maastric...

Footprint, the open access Delft Architecture Theory Journal, is now welcoming abstracts on Conditions of Architecture. Footprint 40 (edited by Alina Paias and Catherine Koekoek) explores the theoretical and practical implications of situating architecture within its conditions of production. Architects are used to seeing themselves as the ones who set conditions, as the designers of spatial constraints within which certain activities will develop. Issue 40 of Footprint will explore what happens when we start to consider that architects are in turn also conditioned by social, cultural, economi...

This special issue invites articles, interviews, and creative works that speak to the question of what it means to be there, in the broadest sense. We invite works that address the urgency of protest, the intimacy of encounter, the uncontainability of affect, the vulnerability of co-presence, the embodiment of knowing, the fullness of silence, the epistemologies of presence/absence, the layeredness of space-time, or any other exploration of the process of being there, of sharing space, together and apart, across multiple technologies of dis/connection.

The Transnationalizing Theory in Science and Technology Studies Series is a groundbreaking intervention in the global landscape of Science and Technology Studies (STS). It proposes a much-needed expansion of the theoretical canon by showcasing conceptual work developed in regions historically peripheral to the field’s dominant Euro-American centers. Building on the momentum of increased scholarly transnationalization, the collection seeks to establish a series of edited books—each devoted to a different regional constellation such as Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, South Asia, and ...
