A graphics talk with no visuals!

So, I’m at MIT, twenty minutes into my talk on tradeoffs in information graphics to the computer scientists, when the power goes out. They had some dim backup lighting so we weren’t all sitting there in the dark, but the projector wasn’t working. So I took questions for the remaining 40 minutes. It went well, perhaps better than the actual talk would’ve gone, even though they didn’t get to see most of my slides.

  1. Ouch, I’d forgotten* you were speaking when i started seeing blackout reports.

    Maybe those who attended can post higlights of the Q+A as we all look at the lost slides now.
    (The slides nicely capture the essense of the paper and a bit more.)

    * “forgotten”= repressed since i had to get work done at $dayJob
