Pictures speak a thousand works and graphics document when words fail (or when discussions happen faster than translators can translate!). Live drawn charts helped break language barriers and provided fall-back support to translators. Non-english speaking attendees often revisited charts with their interpreters to make sure they didn’t miss any key details.
Attendees revisited charts to see the drawings up close and snap photos to send to colleagues, friends and family.
We survived the missiles! We can laugh about it now, this selfie station helped. In the midst of the event, we got a missile attack warning and everything went haywire.
