Information Design Conference, April 2012
It is an exciting time for the IDA as we prepare for IDC 2012, the lastest in the series of international, UK-based Information Design Conference events. Next year’s IDC will be held on 12–13 April at the University of Greenwich, London.
This year, the International Institute for Information Design (IIID) is joining us as co-host for the event. An unprecedented number of submissions were received in response to our call for participation; we have just completed making our selections and are getting confirmations from contributors that they will attend. The programme will follow shortly!

Evening meeting series resuming
Since the IDA started in 1991, our programme has included evening meetings in London which mix a lecture or discussion with a social event.
COMING NEXT: Our next evening meeting is on 18th January 2012 — the
first UK screening of the French documentary film Appuyez sur le bouton
about the role of technical & instruction manuals in our lives. We’ve
joined forces with the Institute for Scientific and Technical Communicators
(ISTC) to pay for this to be subtitled in English, as ‘Push the Button’.
