The Presentation Roundtable podcast summer hiatus continues for a bit longer. (Yes a Caribbean cruise is a great way to slough off stress, but paradoxically it puts you way behind in your work. Still, highly recommended.) I wanted to drop this note to you by way of thanking you for your continued patience. Just in case you are in the Silicon Valley June 4th through 8th, make sure to put some time aside for the ZER01 festival in downtown San Jose.  The events come alive at night in particular, supported by the surprising number of museums, art galleries and clubs that San Jose has to offer. Head downtown, park the car, and just walk from exhibit to exhibit – a great group activity as well. It’s a unique opportunity to explore so many blendings of technology, art and design that you won’t want to miss.

overview from the site…

The
2nd Biennial 01SJ Global Festival of Art on the Edge is North America’s
newest and largest festival of digital arts, and a great deal more.
From a hip hop, multi-media meditation on Antarctica to robot art, from
conversations with artificial intelligence to operatic performances of
Google headlines about the environment, from avant-garde cinema to new
musical forms – well over 100 artworks, performances, screenings,
talks, and workshops will be featured at 01SJ. Festival organizers
expect it to be a perspective-altering experience that entertains,
enlightens, educates and involves attendees in a new understanding of
our changing world.

Hi, we’ve been busy. You too?  Guess it’s going around. Someday I hope I can tell you about all the cool stuff I’m doing right now in my “day job.”  But that day isn’t today.  I can tell you it’s been busy, and very exciting. So, this is just a short message to let you know that: The Roundtable is still active We’ve still got big plans ahead, some exciting conversations to come We appreciate your patience! Also, if you’ve got any feedback so far, like do more of this, less of this, talk to these people, talk to me… please let us know!  In the meantime, vacation time is upon us and we’ll be away from the mic for about a bit longer, but we’re anticipating a new episode not too long after we return.

Almost done, just a second…

In the meantime, we got this in the mail recently.  It’s made the rounds before, but is still very funny, and actually kind of helpful in getting you to think about your slide graphics.  Hope you enjoy it.
