Over 2 days I visualized over 30 lectures from a cross section of thinkers, doers, makers, movers and shakers. These visualizations are oversized murals (4 ft x 6 ft) drawn live during the duration of the lectures, with no pre-briefing of the content. Always a pleasure to visualize interesting and intelligent ideas. </span></p> <p><span>Check ‘em all out here, or <a href="http://studio.craightonberman.com/TEDxMIDWEST-2013">on my website</a>.</span></p>http://blog.craightonberman.com/post/51076135095http://blog.craightonberman.com/post/51076135095Wed, 22 May 2013 11:19:02 -0500vizthinknews<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/4ec388f18a65469274d0ca182f4bcecc/tumblr_mn6cxiWScg1qz6f4bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://tumblr.austinkleon.com/post/51031766879">austinkleon</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://instagram.com/p/Zl0ZIbi42q/">“What I drew today”</a> by <a href="http://tumblr.austinkleon.com/tagged/wendy+macnaughton">Wendy MacNaughton</a></p> <p>cf. <a href="http://tumblr.austinkleon.com/post/41114302579">Craighton Berman’s “The Campaign for the Accurate Measurement of Creativity”</a></p> </blockquote>http://blog.craightonberman.com/post/51046558598http://blog.craightonberman.com/post/51046558598Tue, 21 May 2013 22:56:48 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/77fda5da5217392628fe36301e5e6185/tumblr_mn41afFds21qz9wz7o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>New work from NYC Design Week: <a href="http://studio.craightonberman.com/MANUAL-COFFEEMAKER">Manual Coffeemaker <span>Nº1</span></a></p> <p><span>Coffee is best when it’s carefully prepared one cup at a time, and much like other culinary pursuits, the craft of preparation can be just as enjoyable as the end product.
