Blah-Blah-Blah

0 Comments/ in Communication, Visual Thinking / by Nick
February 20, 2012

I’m about a three chapters into Dan Roam‘s new book, Blah-Blah-Blah, and it’s phenomenal so far. I highly recommend it to any of you who want to become better visual communicators.

How cool are these videos that Duarte recently released of Dan explaining some of the core concepts from his book? Make sure you watch all four. I recommend watching them full-screen so you can really see what Dan’s drawing.

Watch all four videos here: Vivid Thinking, Vivid Grammar, The Fox and the Hummingbird, and Creative Process.

Make sure Dan Roam’s new book is on your radar.

Dan Roam has a new book coming out this November and it became available for pre-order on Amazon this week.

Details about the new book are scarce. You can see a little about the cast of characters in Dan’s blog post.

I feel confident in pointing you at this book though because of the superlative-ness of Dan’s previous books, The Back of the Napkin, and Unfolding the Napkin: The Hands-On Method for Solving Complex Problems with Simple Pictures. I recommend both to anyone who communicates, whether or not you already do so with pictures.
