I’m a regular visitor of TED talks and I like sketches, and I’m steadily searching for new ways of presenting so-called knowledge (a difficult term, I don’t want to elaborate on now) beyond PowerpPoint. I popped into this post on infoaesthetics that I think is a convenient post for a rainy and snowy Easter holiday (at least around here in Central Europe).
At TED2008 in Monterey, two sketch artists (or knowledgecartographers) David Sibbet & Kevin Richards captured the Big Questions live as they happened. Their illustrations highlight the most memorable quotes, great questions & unexpected connections. They were watching each speaker, sketching their impressions, and feeding everything into a groundbreaking new system for sharing and connecting ideas. Autodesk‘s BigViz system is an interactive way to record and synthesize big ideas in a collaborative environment.
They should be ckehced daily for problems. You can get feeders and drinkers to allow the odd day away and automatic door closers that can open / shut the pophole but if this were to fail or their water were to leak out, you still need to have a quick check daily. Look at Hybrid chickens if you want vigour and laying abilities.
