VizThink's Suggested Session is now up on the Panel Picker for SXSW 2009
Share This
If you’re not familiar with SXSW Interactive they have a unique method of generating their conference programming. At traditional conferences programming is often done by a small group of people who evaluate and organize the session ideas that have been submitted, and create the program from there. With SXSW though, after an initial filtering process, they turn the decision (in part) to potential attendees through their Interactive Panel Picker site.
In addition to the votes of the general public there is an advisory board of over 50 respected new media professionals & the opinion’s of SXSW’s own staff as well.
About the Session
In Tom’s own words:
People are hardwired for visualization yet we rely significantly on text. Most games, graphic novels, magazines, interfaces, IKEA instructions, and many other forms of communication take advantage of people’s natural visual thinking ability. Panelists will discuss how to leverage visual techniques to improve your games, websites, movies, communications, or presentations.
As of now, the panel is scheduled to include: Dan Roam, author of Back of the Napkin
Voting closes August 29th so we’d love it if you could take a moment before then to check out our submission and offer up your vote and, if all goes well, we hope you come join us for the conversation in Austin next March!
