A black and white thumbnail sketch of an infographic I'll be producing for VOIS - the world's first online social network combined with an on-demand global marketplace. VOIS is a start-up company that needs to be able show potential investors how VOIS works and what it's value for the user is. The next phase of this project will involve tweaking the content and process flow and generating a computer-illustrated version. Good times.

Holland Board of Public Works

Collaboration Unlimited, a consultancy for strategic planning and business performance, requested that I create a template for use with the Holland Board of Public Works.

VizThink Austin, April 30

On April 30, we held our first VizThink Austin Session! The goal of this session was three-fold: to get a "pulse" of the community interest, to gather content about how people want to or are currently using visual thinking in their lives and work, and to build momentum behind the larger movement toward establishing visual literacy as a skill tantamount to reading and writing. The turnout was fantastic - thank you, Austin - and there was a lot of interest expressed in what happens next. The next session will likely involve a workshop about e-Learning and, of course, we'll have to throw in a good visual thinking game. Can't wait.
