If you haven't already attended one of the Edward Tufte one-day seminars find the time to go to the next one. His next trip to our home town of Boston will be on the 3rd, 4th and 5th of March. Regardless of whether you are a designer or not, Tufte will blow your mind with his intelligent approach to displaying information in almost any environment. Here are some of the topics covered in the one day course:

evaluating evidence used in presentations
statistical data: tables, graphics, and semi-graphics
business, scientific, legal, financial presentations
complexity and clarity
effective presentations: on paper and in person
use of video, overheads, computers, and handouts
multi-media, internet, and websites
credibility of presentations
design of information displays in public spaces
animation and scientific visualizations
design of computer interfaces and manuals
