Three thousand words worth of pictures - at least

Dan Thornton | August 27, 2008

I’ve been a fan of the ‘cartoons on the back of business cards’ work of Hugh MacLeod for a long time, often using the examples of his work and blog to try and inspire other people.

He was soon joined at some unspecified point by David Armano’s ‘visual thinking’ on Logic + Emotion, whose genius has livened up many of my presentations with slides that sum up social media in eloquent visuals.

But somehow I’d missed out on Tom Fishburne until I caught 10 questions with him on Church of the Consumer yesterday. I then spent longer than intended taking a look at a huge range of great marketing related cartoons at www.tomfishburne.com. My discovery ties into his Virtual Post2Post book tour to promote his latest work, This One Time, At Brand Camp.

Personally, I think his next move should be poster version I could hang around the office (Please forgive the dodgy resizing for my central blog column, and click to see the original in context):

I love the combination of technology, thoughts, narrative, marketing, humour and art in cartoons such as those of Hugh Macleod.

Here’s another one to have a look at- I like her piece on creativity, it’s quite inspirational:
