The cards were designed to stimulate discussion about the artefacts, activities, practises, functions, competencies, and opinions about the supposed link between these fields.<br></div><div><br></div><div>The session was convened by Robert Harland (Lead) (Loughborough University), Veronika Kelly (University of South Australia), Karel van der Waarde (Swinburne University of Technology and Basel School of Design, and Eamon Spelman (Limerick Institute of Technology). <br></div><div><br></div><div>A report on the workshop can be located in the Conversations section of the DRS2018 website at: http://www.drs2018limerick.org/ <br></div>
