Presentation at Apple Store Ginza (Tokyo) Dec 15, 7:00 pm

On Tuesday (December 15), I will be presenting (in English) in the theatre at the Apple Store Ginza beginning at 7:00 pm. I'll be sharing some simple visual principles and design lessons from the world around us that can be applied to presentation design and beyond. I'll talk a bit about the contents of the new book — presentation zen design — which went to press last week and we'll have some copies of the first book in English and Japanese to give away (PZD will not be available until about Dec 27). If you are in Tokyo this Tuesday, it would be great to meet you at the Apple Store. If you can't be there, I hope you will pass on this announcement to your friends in Tokyo. 本当にありがとう！

Update
About 130 people showed up in Ginza for the presentation. There are only 84 seats in the theatre so many sat on the floor or stood in the back. Great audience. We gave away a lot of books and loads of iStockphoto image credits. Presentation was done in about an hour and we took another hour meeting people and signing books, etc. Alex Fung from Hong Kong took some snaps here. Hiroaki Yamane took this photo of me taking a photo of him in Ginza. A big ありがとう！ to everyone who attended. Fantastic group!

hey Garr!
I'm coming back to Japan within a year...well as soon as I am done with my master thesis paper. Then, I'll be able to come and see your next presentation. Until then, I'll turn myself to your new book! Can't wait! ; )

How about a live Skype link (or whatever) for those of us outside Tokyo?

Where can I found Presentation Zen in spanish?
I have been looking for it and it is nowhere on online bookstores.

[Samuli]

I will be there! I saw your Presentation Zen talk two years ago in Tokyo and it had an everlasting effect on me!

See my latest blog post - I do not know how else to thank you!

Too bad I am a broke college student. When I have some money it would be awesome to some day watch you present.

I do have enough money to pick up you new book though!

G'day Garr,

I just gave my completion seminar for my PhD thesis. I had a lot of really positive comments from the audience on the simplicity slides and ease to follow findings. Thanks so much for all of your advice you've posted on this blog! I don't suppose you have any presentations coming up in Australia any time soon? It would be great to see you down here.

Also, well done on your new book!

Cheers, Brook :)

It’s Dear Friend,
a fact: If you want your website to make you money, generate leads or get subscribers you have to advertise in order to drive traffic to it. Of course this is true for any business, but it is absolutely essential for online business.

Well said. I never thought I would agree with this opinion, but I'm starting to view things from a different view. I have to research more on this as it seems very interesting. One thing I don't understand though is how everything is related together.

[Presentation skills]

I also saw you two years ago in Tokyo ... but missed your presentation this time. It would be so cool if there was a youtube video of your presentation - any chance?

[wow gold]

Really helpful explanation of what is important in life and the slide is great - thanks Garr..

Loved to read your blog. I would like to suggest you that traffic show most people read blogs on Mondays. So it should encourage bloggers to write new write ups over the weekend primarily.
