Description
Dave talks about giving ourselves permission to draw, about how the printing press led us to communicate in a particular way, and about how that can limit our communication in a digital environment, about how PowerPoint can be both inhibiting and comforting, and about how where we are with video today is where we were with PageMaker 20 years ago.Dave says 'You don't have to be an expert to start - you just have to start'.There are several references in this episode:Dave's blog is Communication Nation (http://communicationnation.blogspot.com/).His company is Xplane (http://www.xplane.com/).Edward Tufte's inspirational book is 'The Visual Display of Quantitative Information' (http://tinyurl.com/27dw8s). Betty Edwards' book 'Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain' can teach you to draw - even if you don't think you can (http://tinyurl.com/36jbxj).The culture map is Dave's representation of the culture at his company Xplane (http://tinyurl.com/3a27bp).Dave's 'ListMania' booklist is on Amazon.com (http://tinyurl.com/25jqas).I mentioned Lee Brimelow of Frog Design.
