■ Message from the President
Welcome to Architectural Informatics WEEK 2022!
The Architectural Informatics Society (AIS), which started its activities in 2020, has been actively seeking new forms of online-based academic exchange activities in a context characterized by fast-paced social transformation through digitalization.
On the occasion of the first year of the conference, we are organizing a new type of academic exchange activity, which will be called “Architectural Informatics WEEK”. The details can be found in the program on this website, but all of the events are filled with the latest developments in building informatics and the passion of our members who study and practice building informatics.
The live streaming of the conference is open to all, not limited to members of AIS, so please feel free to drop by each program for a glimpse of the current state of Architectural informatics. Members will be able to watch the recordings on the members-only page after the conference.
We hope you will take this opportunity to look forward to the further development and promotion of the field of Architectural Informatics.
Yasushi Ikeda, AIS president

■DAY 1: Annual Academic Conference UPDATE!
The Round Table Session is a new conference format designed to shift the focus of academic exchange from the traditional focus on research presentations to a focus on discussions on specific themes proposed by AIS members. Each session will consist of up to four panelists, including the session organizer, who has a strong interest in the topic. The participants will have 60 minutes to discuss the topic prepared by the session organizer. We expect in-depth discussions and exchanges of opinions on topics suitable for the development and advancement of architectural informatics that is not made available elsewhere. The discussion will be recorded and made accessible to the AIS members.
Date: 25-27 February on Zoom Webinar, after that archive will be open only to members of the AIS.

■DAY 3-2: Freshman Camp
We will hold a “Freshman Camp” for the new academic year.
The AIS has been promoting opportunities to learn a wide range of knowledge and skills about “Architectural Informatics” and to share know-how. In the coming academic year, we are planning to hold a new type of activity, a short intensive workshop “festival” in April. At the “Freshman Camp”, the training activities committee members will review the past “Sessions” and discuss what kind of learning opportunities the new “festival” will provide. This is a good place to start your introduction to “Architectural Informatics”, including students who have not yet been exposed to the activities of the AIS!

■DAY 4-2: The first of Lecture Series “Toward Architectural Informatics”
This lecture series is designed to unravel the debate on architecture and to connect it to wider and richer society. Architectural Informatics is a discipline that takes a more cross-disciplinary, dynamic and expansive view of architecture. Based on a continuous awareness of the issues raised by the “Preparatory Meeting for the Architectural Informatics Society” (10+1 website) and the three activities of “Learn / Make / Connect” in Chapter 2 of the book “Towards Architectural Informatics”, we will continue our discussions across different disciplines and specialties, aiming to create a network of knowledge.
