Is visualisation helping you personally in any way during this challenging time?
Well, I think in pictures, so yes. My wife (also a cartoonist) and I are looking at now as the time to do some whiteboard plotting to work out how we’re going to keep our careers alive for the next few years, and hopefully aim for more and more interesting work and clients as we do. We did this a few years ago and it led me into HCD/service design.
And this time we’ll be using some HCD tools as well, which are often also nice and visual. Things like ‘Desirable/Viable/Feasible’.
I’m trying to narrow down my projects and be smart about how I spend my time — so more prep/research/writing right now, but if one of these projects is picked up (eg: by a publisher) I’ll suddenly be doing lots of drawing!
Thank you, for sharing, David.
