Wall Street Journal: Doodling for Dollars

Wednesday, April 25th, 2012 - Filed under Appearances & Interviews, Graphic Facilitation, Graphic Recording, The Doodle Revolution, Visual Thinking

Rachel Emma Silverman, the reporter who interviewed me and several of my visual-thinking colleagues for her article in the Wall Street Journal, totally gets the Doodle. Her description of what companies are doing to elevate visual thinking accurately reflects the crazy uptick in the market trying to understand its applications. It will be a long [...]

Design Beats Mass – Webdagene 2011

Saturday, November 12th, 2011 - Filed under Graphic Recording

It doesn’t seem right to have Jared Spool, Matt Jones, Mike Moran AND Stephen Anderson all under one roof. I think we’re supposed to spread the Smart around. But they and I were all invited to Webdagene 2011, Norway’s best user experience conference. Each of these guys are “kahunas” in their field (pardon me, I just [...]

Visualizing the Future: CEOs for Cities in Chicago

Thursday, October 20th, 2011 - Filed under Gamestorming: A Playbook, Graphic Recording, Lights in the People Tunnel, Visual Thinking

CEOs for Cities is a rock-and-roll nonprofit that has consistently proven it’s on the cutting edge of conversations around designing and innovating cities of the future. This relatively small but dynamite organization connects urban leaders to front-line research, human-centered and tech-oriented projects, and perhaps most importantly, to each other.

Now is Our Time – TEDGlobal 2011 in Edinburgh

Thursday, August 4th, 2011 - Filed under Appearances & Interviews, Graphic Recording, Visual Thinking

Click a thumbnail for a larger view. Click here to view them on Flickr. Being part of any TED event, whether as a speaker, facilitator or visualizer, has been like joining a family. A big, raucous, good-samaritan, wildly creative family. I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of being involved in various TED events, my first [...]

Doodle Revolution Meets Robert McKee

Thursday, July 28th, 2011 - Filed under Graphic Recording, Visual Notetaking

Our last blog post on Robert McKee’s STORY Seminar was so beloved by McKee’s folks that they requested to use the visual notes as their marketing piece. Mia, Robert’s lovely wife, sent us this image to show how they juxtaposed my content with theirs. I know many of you are equally enamored with story as [...]

As I grow in my visual thinking work, it’s become abundantly clear that the story is 100 times more powerful than the visuals that support it (and am I going to get in trouble for saying that!) I’ve always known that visualizing crappy content is like putting lipstick on a pig, but the overwhelming importance [...]

SXSW Interactive 2011: Don’t Call it a Comeback. I’ve Been Here for Years.

Thursday, July 7th, 2011 - Filed under Appearances & Interviews, Graphic Recording

And here we go again with SXSW Interactive – a festival to make other festivals shrink in fear. This mammoth affair brings some 75,000 people to Austin and for the last four years, I’ve been responsible for curating the live visualization team during the Interactive portion (and for showing up prepared for a panel that [...]

Taking it to Scale: SXSW Interactive

Thursday, July 7th, 2011 - Filed under Graphic Recording

I’ve worked at SXSW for several years now, graphically recording the keynotes, curating the graphics team, and speaking on panels with some excellent folks. My graphic records from those events seem to spread far and wide on the Internet, but once they’re gone people lose the sense of scale. This post, therefore, is specifically so [...]
