Lisbon, 6^th — 8^th October, 2011
Chairs: Fernando Carvalho Rodrigues, Carlos Duarte, Eduardo Corte-Real

UNIDCOM / IADE’s 6th International Conference’s Senses & Sensibility in Lisbon: Advertising, Design, Fashion, Marketing, Photography and Visual Culture in the right place will take place between 6–8th of October 2011, in Lisbon. As in earlier conferences, 6th Senses & Sensibility‘s papers will be accepted on basis of a double-blind peer review of both abstracts and full papers for final publishing. Conference language is English.

The conference will be preceded by a one-day-conference of the Drawing Research Network (chair: Eduardo Côrte-Real) on the 5th October 2011.

Papers will be selected according to panels, proposed by UNIDCOM´s members and counselors. Panels’ themes reflect the research interests of panel chairs and thus indicating main research interests at UNIDCOM / IADE, contributing towards a future definition of the research strategy at IADE’s University Institute. Panel chairs may have 20 minutes for presenting the session’s theme — in context of their own research interests.
