ABSTRACT
PDC Place will be hosted at Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane Australia, located on the lands of the Turrbal and Yugara people. QUT’s Kelvin Grove campus is located next to the Victoria Parklands/Barrambin – an urban park in the beginning stages of transformation by Brisbane City Council. PDC Place Brisbane provides an opportunity for the participatory design community within Australia to reconnect after some time separated by hard border closures and travel restrictions. Motivation for a Brisbane-based PDC Place event stems from an enthusiasm from the local PD community within South-East Queensland to come together with each other, with Country, and with the broader PD community within our region. We particularly encourage Higher Degree Research students and early to mid-career researchers and academics interested in reflection and discussion around the intersection of participatory design with a more-than-human focus.

The role of design fiction in participatory design processes
NordiCHI '18: Proceedings of the 10th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer InteractionParticipatory design is in essence very malleable as any design technique could lend itself to it, as long as users and stakeholders are involved. Design fictions however, have more often been used as either a vehicle for critical designs, or as a sheer ...
