CROSSING PLACES | CROSSING EXPERIENCES | CROSSING MINDS
In 2010, KEER moves for the first time in Europe, with the strong desire to push forward the exchanges between East and West on the topics related to Kansei. Therefore, KEER2010 is not only a cross-disciplinary event, but also a concrete cross-culture one. Researchers and Practitioners from universities and industries with different cultures and different visions will expose their points of view and share their knowledge in a warm, rich and open-minded context. Many disciplines, from Design Studies to Computer Science through Brain Science, Business and Fashion, or Social Sciences will be involved in order to build a common base of Kansei. Enriching Kansei studies, enriching experience, enriching minds by sharing and constructing together the Kansei related fields and knowledge are the ultimate objectives of KEER2010.

For this edition, KEER will be composed of plenary and parallel sessions, based on the various themes addressed by the presenters, and related to the conference themes. Keynote speakers will be invited from many disciplines related with Kansei studies in order to bring an innovative and relevant view on the field of Kansei studies.
