I’m getting rather excited about my upcoming talk at CHIFOO on Great Storytelling UX in Modern Comic Books. Over the next few weeks I’ll be finalizing the content and doing a few dry runs to smooth out the kinks and ensure I’m connecting with the audience at each page that I show during the presentation. If you have the time and interest in seeing where this is headed, or helping out a guy make sure he’s making best use of the audience’s time, gimme a jangle.
I’ve been out to a few meetups already this year (JavaScript Admirers, CHIFOO, STC) and helped out my poor dog who had a severe glaucoma attack and had to have an eye removed. She’s bounced back amazingly and doesn’t seem to know that she’s not supposed to be missing an eye, which is a helluva lesson in staying present and adapting to change in this world. (Who knew my dog was a Buddhist?)
Where will you find me in the next couple of weeks?
- IxDA “Dan Klyn + Mozilla’s new office + Food + Drinks = Proficuous“
- PDX-UX “Lean UX & Prototype Testing with Julie (JB) Booth“
- CHIFOO “Persona Stories: Weaving Together Qual and Quant for a Richer Picture” (meetup beforehand for CHIFOOd and a drink!)
- PDX Quantified Self “Show and Tell“
Further out I’m planning on BarCamp Portland 8 and ProductCamp Portland 2014. Should be a brain-wringer.
