Editor's Notes
- There are no shortage of ideas, it is understanding how to express them, and refine them to communicate them clearly and turn them into something that is the challenge.
- How do we get from What if to action?
- Communicating clearly is the start and our ancestors were using the tools to tell stories and define strategies long before us
- Multiple sensory interactions with a thing, a place, a concept, provide better understanding then memory and ability to creatively discover new ways to look at it, improve on it, …See, feel, taste, smell, enable us to recognise it in the abstract (a line drawing) or words written on a page, Attaching it to an emotion makes in contextual (memory), the spoken wordPlace Theory: understanding from the point of stimilating you multples
- The visual practice that I will be explaining today and presenting in a workshop tomorrow has many different schools and methods but they all share some common values.They all require deep listening for key pointsCapturing key point without paraphrasingCreating something visual providing clarity for the complexClustering information for better understandingStructuring for better and clearer action
