I attended the Edward Tufte conference last Friday in San Francisco and found it to be not merely entertaining, but an excellent learning experience as well. All conference attendees received his books (Student Conference Rate = $180, Cost of Book Set = $150, Actual Conference Cost $30!) which his talk was structured around. He managed to touch all the main points of each book, and largely talked around examples, while expanding on the text in the book. If you are at all interested in learning more about good design or presentations I would highly recommend attending one of his talks if you get a chance.
I’ve posted my notes on the talk here as well, enjoy! (these notes only cover the second half of the seminar)
