USC BIM CON ! FAB 2009
The Third Annual USC Symposium on Building Information Modeling + Construction and Fabrication to be hosted by The USC School of Architecture (Prof. Karen Kensek) and Virterbi School of Engineering (Prof. Burcin Becerik Gerber)
30-31 July 2009
Los Angeles, CA. USA
Digital Architecture London
Introducing the latest developments in digital design practice, the conference will explore new spaces, social interactions, design and fabrication processes, and speculate on architecture’s post-digital futures. DAL09 is directed by Ruairi Glynn with the support of London Digital Week, The Building Centre, Arup & The Bartlett School of Architecture

ACADIA 09: reForm()
The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, Department of Architecture, Interior Architecture and Designed Objects, is proud to host “reForm()” — A conference that explores how architects, engineers, artists and designers are using new HARDWARE, SOFTWARE and MIDDLEWARE technologies to transform the ways in which buildings and spaces perform, act and operate. ACADIA09 provides a unique forum for the examination of emerging research and design in today’s building and design professions.

eCAADe 2010 Future Cities
For the first time in human history, more than 50% of the world’s population lives in urban regions. Contemporary cities are environmentally, socially, and economically unsustainable. The focus of the eCAADe 2010 conference is that of tools, methods, and theories that support the new design of new cities and the transformation of existing cities.

ACADIA 2010 Life in:Formation
The ACADIA 2010 conference will focus on the influence of computing and its impact on the changing nature of information in architectural education, research, and practice. With the ever-increasing integration of information technologies in the design laboratory, the discipline of architecture has changed profoundly in recent years. The Cooper Union will host this years conference in New York
October 21st – October 24th 2010
The Cooper Union, New York, United States
If you know of a past, present, or coming up computational design conference, symposium, or discussion, please let me know so it can be placed on the list.
ACADIA 2011 Regional Conference
Parametricism: Student Performance Criteria (SPC), is set to complement ACADIA’s mission of facilitating communication and critical thinking regarding the use of computers in architecture, with a specific focus on the impact of education and how computation and computational thinking, particularly the concept of Parametricism*, is poised to evolve design thinking and the future of architectural practice.
March 10th – September 12th, 2011

EXTREME BIM 2011
The Fifth Annual USC Symposium on Extreme BIM: Parametrics and Customization
to be hosted by The USC School of Architecture (Prof. Karen Kensek)
8 July 2011

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE: BioDigital ARCHITECTURE & GENETICS
By chance, now in this crucial moment, are offered new techniques of an enormous potential: biological techniques and digital techniques. And even fusion of both, in something that can be named biodigital architecture. One that has incorporated the advantages proportioned by the understanding of genetics in both ways, the biological and the digital way, that permit to face with hope some continuity also worthy, but this time a dignity for all The Earth.

ACADIA 2011 Integration Through Computation
The ACADIA 2011 Annual Conference will explore integrative trajectories and areas of overlap that have emerged through computation between design, its allied disciplines of engineering and construction, and other fields, such as computer science, material science, mathematics and biology. The conference will highlight experimental projects in which methods, processes, and techniques are discovered, appropriated, adapted, and altered from elsewhere, and digitally pursued.
