Let the conference begin!!!

Shout outs to our board and conference organizers led to the morning presentation by Marc Schönwiesner, Professor, University of Montreal on The Seeing Brain. Graphically recorded by Melanie Benn.

Lots of great content which can be shared in other formats.

For me as the newbie/wannabe graphic recorder, the biggest take away came as Melanie was explaining what she recorded and why. She pointed out that she captured elements of the remarks that would trigger a memory for those in the room. one example was including the word/image for "clap" which triggers our group exercise on recognizing objects - as we watched a series of images flash on the screen, we clapped when an image was repeated.

I'll consider that "take-away #1"

More to come...
