HAIKU

I am a huge fan of the haiku. I have been for several years, and even once created an art project about haiku.

I've had a ripped out piece of note paper with chicken scratches on it for about 4 years, now - I made it when I was starting to put the seeds of ubu skills into the ground.So I made it into an infographic!

It touches on important elements to consider when you're making a presentation. Additional things to consider (and other elements of haiku that I love):

1. How much information can you cram into a smaller space? So many presentations have extraneous information that we don't really listen to (and can't retain), so why not eliminate the excess and stick to the most important bits? Less is more in that regard.

2. Let your audience's mind fill in the blanks as much as possible (just like we do with a haiku). Just like with good art, when your audience is allowed to participate by feeling like they're solving a mystery or discovering something, they are much more inclined to retain that information and feel invested and connected.
