    Love your presentation. When I want an idea to write about, I do not sit at my table waiting for it to pop. I go to my ironing board instead. My creativity spurts when I am doing mundane stuff like listening to the radio while ironing. Spot on, Benjamin.

    Nice illustrations, and nice thoughts. And it's true, that's the way creativity works.

    There is an Spanish writer that said something like 'I bellieve in inspiration, but it's better if inspiration finds me at work ...'

    Keep up with the great work! You have got the gift to inspire others!

    I saw your presentation on: www.servantofchaos.com talking about creating sense of conformity from the new breed of 'improved presentation. I'd suggest you conform more! Yours doesn't cut it.

    I feel the result after your presentation.

    It looks funny, and it is funny but it is also very educating.

    I once read a quote that says: “The human brain starts working the moment you are born and never stops until you stand up to speak in public” Now tbenjaminlarsen, contrary to the end quote, you've set your brains working and managed to produce a simple but effective presentation. You did not stand up in public but gone public with your show. Voted UP

  • Pawlowski

    you are treating my brain nicely... I vote UP. :-) Patrick

  • tbenjaminlarsen
    tbenjaminlarsen said 4 months Edit Delete

    Thanks Omvikram. You could quite possibly be right, but Iv'e actually spent a lot of time cutting it down in size. I feel it is about right size-wise when it comes to what I am trying to say. 'Short is sweet' is one of the mantras i adher to, and I like to cut away all the dead meat I can. (Although there's always a risk I've taken it too far). ;)



    Anyway, for those interested, I'm actually running a series of posts about the creation of the presentation over at my blog: http://www.tBenjaminLarsen.com

    I like your approach, and so have given an unreserved vote 'UP'
    Given your expertise in this area, I would be grateful of your opinion on this show: http://www.slideshare.net/grahairs/the-eluvator
    My drawings don’t even begin to match the quality of yours, but I hope this is compensated by the design and composition?

    Thanks a lot Rowan. Not sure my drawing talent is quite where I would like it to be, but with some effort I think I can just about get by.. ;)

  • RowanManahan
    RowanManahan said 4 months Edit Delete

    Really nice. I wish I had your drawing talent - a lovely way to personalise your talks and to ensure that you are using exactly the right image rather than 'making do' with one that's not quite right.
