WDC2016 Sketchnotes
Sketchnotes from my visit to Bristol for the WDC2016 conference.
My first visit back to the Watershed since I worked there one summer over 20 years ago. (I was a rubbish Barista).
Had a good time and was impressed with a nice range of formats and topics. I didn’t sketchnote Gavin Strange’s talk as I’ve seen him talk before and there was no way I was going to try to keep up with him!
WDC2016 - Ruth John
I’ve seen Ruth talk once before, when she talked about the fiendish sounding shadow DOM. Obviously some kind of mascohist, she attempted live demo of technology and was beset by technical glitches with the in-house projector. Whilst annoying, she pressed on and gave a really interesting introduction to MIDI, focusing on the ‘Digital Interface’ bit of the acronym.
WDC2016 - Nicholas Alpi
I am very much an IT salaryman having been in-house for a *long* time so Nicholas’ talk about his journey to running his own agency wouldn’t seem to be that relevant to me, the talk worked nicely. Talks with a strong narrative thread are always nice to follow, and this had that.
WDC2016 - Lightning Talks
Three very good talks about switching activities, making things and recruiting well.
WDC2016 - Jack Sheppard
Empathy. I liked Jack’s range around psychology and interactions with people, though it did meander a bit for more, which goes with the territory when talking about such an interconnected topic. Not to say I didn’t enjoy it, but perhaps covered TOO much.
WDC2016 - Harry Roberts
Packed with useful and relevant info for work we’re doing in work right now, I really liked the balance of specific tips and broad principles. Lots to take away and work on.
WDC2016 - Dan Edwards
Good reminder that efficiency isn’t the only thing to consider when doing good work.
