008 Talking

FonsSchiedon — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 14:35:10 +0000

There’s two events coming up that are in some contrast to the relative solitude of my daily practice (no, no, it’s ok. Some days are better than others).

The Kuala Lumpur Design Week invited me to do a talk at their conference this Sunday (18th of September). The event is one of the largest of its kind in the region and a magnet to young creative talent* – very excited about being there. My presentation will be completely reworked to involve less art and more pornography. This went down really well before, and the effect of giving an audience more bang for their buck should never be underestimated.

The second is the Playgrounds Festival , in Tilburg and Amsterdam on 5, 6 and 7 October. My part in that is supposed to be somewhat of a surprise/downer, but I can disclose that unlike last year, at least I won’t be making the opening titles this time around. So nobody has to feel “aesthetically insulted”, ok?

Kuala Lumpur Design Week – Malaysia – 16-25th September 2011
Playgrounds Festival 2011 – Amsterdam, Tilburg; The Netherlands – 5,6,7 October 2011

* p.s. I did not just say “young creative talent” did I?
