Here is a short video of the work I was doing at TED2008 with Tom Wujec, Kevin Richards, and John Schmeir of Autodesk and Phil Davidson of Perceptive Pixel. It was a tour-de-force of documentation, where we graphically illustrated all 50+ speakers on the topic of The Big Questions. The illustrations were created by Kevin and myself on Wacom tablets, and then accessed from our hard drives by the Perceptive Pixel-Multitouch wall shown in two posts ago. I made this video from photos and videos I took at the event. Tom Wujec is now making an on-line book of all our drawings that will be available at www.autodesk.com.

David,
This is so amazing, for a couple of reasons. First, I really like how you put the presentation together and used the hipcast technology. The work you did at TED is very exciting, I really look forward to seeing it in detail.
The wall you worked on almost takes my breath away when I think about the implications of what this technology can do for visual facilitation. I can hardly wait for this to be widely available. It just takes away so many of the current challenges on the technical side.

Hello David,
Thankl you so much for sharing this. It is a brilliant format with which you tell your experience. As soon as I get some kind of DK blog up and running, I will get it there.
I was very much looking forward to see your work, when I heard you were going. And it is brilliant. The technology is speeding up - lets get everybody on board with those listening, synthesizing and visualising skills. Greetings, Ole
