With mixed feelings I have come to the TYPO Berlin 2010th That may be because on the one hand, I was there this time as a speaker and a healthy respect for a speaker there was – to put it to title not catastrophic expectation with dysphoria panic attacks. I was also concerned that the obtained by the Typo 2006 courage and passion, is overwritten by the negative Typo 2010th First of all: The Typo berreicherndsten 2010 became one of the experiences in my life as a designer.

What made me the Typo 2006

I do not know if you can imagine what I mean the talk at the TYPO 2010th What does it matter that the Typo 2006 has influenced my life very much – to the Typo 2006 I was on fire for the design. My passion for design was then confirmed by many like-minded people. The impassioned speeches of the speakers gave me the courage to become self to missteps and always get back up. I met the child's playfulness as an important virtue of a designer to confidently present to the outside – are professional designers and creative play for children -.'s Exactly what I wanted to be in the future

From the study

Out I started my own business with a friend after the Typo 2006 – we were two months after the Typo 2006 in the summer at the beach and went for a student job – we rented beach chairs. Talked about what we would expect after graduation and what we wanted to avoid at all costs – go to commercial exploitation or as an employee in an agency. We wanted to see stories like the boys of rock or karlssonwilker n'Rol-be designers like Simon Waterfall. Promote ideas and take our lives into our own hands – to shape their own lives -. A dream that I had been to school time

Why am I actually just been invited to Typo? The largest international design conference in Europe! I'm not Fons Hickmann, Eike no king, no king or African David Carson. How do I deal with it, and what the audience expects from me. Toss them with plastic bottles for me when I pan or send tweets during my speech derogatory to the world that I had the money value of their ticket not I? Leave the lecture audience as I speak – it would be a sure indication that I probably will be again in the future, not on the typo. What is my purpose of the presentation? What I would like to pass on and I am ever in a position to do? What happens when it runs really well? Changed the Typo 2010 my life back as strong as in 2006?

Just some of the thoughts I had before. I want to give you an insight into my thought, my motivation to show why I have asked this and it would have panned out my point of view, almost. I create my design projects as possible from the perspective of the user. So I wanted to make my speech as possible. The theme was “Passion” – all I wanted was this passion carried over to the public – therein lay the challenge. My lecture on “designer x.0 – A guide for establishing the web” leaves much room for interpretation. Typo of the visitors expect now that I am THE way to demonstrate success? Whoa, that is exciting.

I wanted to make very well. Invest much time in the lecture and practice the audition. I soon starting times. From 2-3 weeks of preparation, then were scheduled for 2-3 days because of my diploma presentation, my move to the new office and the target set me before my new website – to relaunch maltechristensen.com before the Typo + a serving of stoppages – what I but could be a little nervous.

With Florian then I have spent my first day on the typo – I was quite impressed by the mass of the people probably brought a lot of expectations for her admission had – beautiful! The presentations were great and the head cinema began.

Because I am a big fan of adrenaline and had after my first day at Typo a few new ideas for my presentation the next day, I then decided at 22:00 clock in the evening to work on my presentation once again completely . At 4:30 clock in the morning I was ready. No problem – check technique for me was only at 10:00 clock – aaaaaaaaah! Good night … at least for a few hours.

13:00 clock – even 30min – The hall is full and I'm in a thematic block with Oliver Reichenstein from Information Architects, who has flown in from Japan and spoke very confidently about freeze-dried web design. So I come now to the series – Showtime!
