Hope you can find a way to cut an interim presentation.
nisbot.iconWhat would you like to see happen in this conversation?
nishio.iconHope you can find a way to cut an interim presentation.
nisbot.iconWhat is the "cut" of this "cut"?
nishio.iconI have written out the contents and laid them out to create a structure, but to make a presentation, I need to make this a one-dimensional flow from start to finish. I'm lacking that right now, so I need some inspiration.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "inspiration" is this "inspiration"?
nishio.iconSomething that's like, "Okay, let's do that."
nisbot.iconWhat is that "feeling" like?
nishio.iconHmmm, I guess I need some certainty to move forward.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "certainty" is that "certainty"?
nishio.iconJust gathering and structuring information does not have a strong driving force to cut it down to one dimension.
nisbot.iconWhat "one dimension" is that "one dimension"?
nishio.iconThe presentation is one-dimensional because it is spoken along a time axis. The structure of reality is much more multidimensional, so conversion is necessary.
nisbot.iconIs there anything else about that "one dimension"?
nishio.iconDirections. Humans remember the past but not the future, so there are things that must appear first. On the other hand, humans are shifting, so you can't make it one-dimensional with that constraint alone. A structure like a math book with abstract definitions that should be known first will cause the audience to lose focus in the first half of the book.
nisbot.iconWhat is its "structure"?
nishio.iconIn advance, the contents that are strongly related and would be told in close temporal proximity if they were to be told are arranged in close spatial proximity. The distances between the kozane are not equal.

Is there anything else you can tell us about this "structure"?
nishio.iconFor example, as a general rule, include a demo early on to share a concrete image with the audience early on. In my last presentation, I used the title screen as a demo because I ran out of places to include a demo.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "audience" is this "audience"?
nishio.iconThere is an option to assume that the audience has already watched the previous video, although the video is more reusable if it is made with the assumption that the audience is hearing the story for the first time. The latter condition is met in the most recent interim presentation. Wanting to make it more reusable may be complicating the issue by trying to kill two birds with one stone.
nisbot.iconWhat is it that you value?
nishio.iconAnyway, I hope the project goes ahead. Because worrying about what to do is a waste of time. You can even disregard reusability for once.
nisbot.iconWhat is the "destination" of this "destination"?
nishio.iconI want to finish my own work tomorrow, Friday, because the video is due at noon on Saturday. I want to leave time to support my adopted creator.

Where is this "structure"?
nishio.iconNot yet. If you find a starting point, you can take it from there.
nisbot.iconWhat is the "starting point" of this "starting point"?
nishio.iconStarting and Landing Points
nisbot.iconWhat is the "landing point" of this "landing point"?
nishio.iconWell, given the nature of the meeting, it would be appropriate to end with an open question to the audience about what I am struggling with at this point in time.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "distress" is this "distress"?
nishio.iconUntil recently, I was wondering how to collect feedback, but I just realized that crowdsourcing would be a good way to collect feedback and solved it. I'm not too worried, there are a lot of features that are in the previous version but not implemented yet, and I don't have enough time to implement them. Not enough time to implement them.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "distress" is this "distress"?
nishio.iconMy biggest concern is what form the announcement should take.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "announcement" is that "announcement"?
nishio.iconA 10-minute video sharing the current status of the project
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "project" is this "project"?
nishio.iconProject to create digital stationery to organize thoughts
nisbot.iconIs there anything else you can tell us about that "project"?
nishio.iconWell, for me personally, the last project has achieved a quality that can replace what I used to do with paper stickies, so the next step is to verify if it will create value when others use it.
nisbot.iconWhere is this "project" located?
nishio.iconSo I guess I need to "nest" them from being in the hands of me alone.
nisbot.icon
Well, for me personally, the last project has achieved a quality that can replace what I used to do with paper stickies, so the next step is to verify whether it will create value when others use it.
What does this "project" look like?
nishio.iconThey are like bird chicks, you can't keep them locked up in a cage forever, you need to release them when they are ready to fly.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "basket" is that "basket"?
nishio.iconcreator's sole discretion
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "creator" is this "creator"?
nishio.iconWell, it's me, but in essence, I created this tool to allow me to do what I'm used to doing electronically, so it only supports my usage.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "I" is that "I"?
nishio.iconI myself need to learn new ways of doing things, but if I use a tool that is not scalable, I am bound to what is possible with that tool. I become a caged bird myself.
nisbot.iconIs there anything else about that "basket"?
nishio.iconWe need to break this basket more and more.
nisbot.iconWhere is that "basket"?
nishio.iconHeart.
nisbot.icon
Well, for me personally, the last project has achieved a quality that can replace what I used to do with paper stickies, so the next step is to verify whether it will create value when others use it.
How do you know about this "project"?
nishio.iconDriving in the direction of increased uncertainty and seeing unexpected developments occur.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "uncertainty" is this "uncertainty"?
nishio.iconFor example, user scalability.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "extensibility" is this "extensibility"?
nishio.iconUsers can add menus, and JavaScript can describe what to do with those menus.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "user" is this "user"?
nishio.iconSomeone other than me. You can add and use any features you want without my help. I can also experiment with new features without hard-coding.
nisbot.iconIs there anything else about this "me"?
nishio.iconPrevious versions made it difficult for me to add features myself.
nisbot.iconWhat "version" is that "version"?
nishio.iconRegroup.
nisbot.icon
Yes, it is appropriate to end with an open question to the audience about how to end the presentation, and given the nature of the meeting, what I am struggling with at the moment.
Is there anything else you can tell us about this "troubled" situation?
nishio.iconIn that sense, it would be good to know what features users would like to see added, since we don't know at this point what features they would like to see added. It's a relatively easy question to answer.
nisbot.iconIs there anything else you can tell us about that "user"?
nishio.iconNothing in particular. We have seen the landing point, now we just need the starting point.
nisbot.iconIs there anything else you can tell us about that "landing spot"?
nishio.iconNo.
nisbot.icon
Yes, it is appropriate to end with an open question to the audience about how to end the presentation, and given the nature of the meeting, what I am struggling with at the moment.
Where does this "troubled" come from?
nishio.iconUnknown to me.
nisbot.iconHow do you know that "I"?
nishio.iconHmmm... maybe we learn after the fact through interaction with others.
nisbot.icon
Well, for me personally, the last project has achieved a quality that can replace what I used to do with paper stickies, so the next step is to verify whether it will create value when others use it.
Where is this "project" located?
nishio.iconThere's no indication that we're going to be talking about some kind of starting point, but I'll start with the same demo as last time anyway, so let's see if that's okay...
nisbot.iconWhat was the "last time" like?
nishio.iconBoost Conference
nisbot.icon
Yes, it is appropriate to end with an open question to the audience about how to end the presentation, and given the nature of the meeting, what I am struggling with at the moment.
Where is this "distressed"?
nishio.iconI'm 👎thered.

Where is this "structure" located?
nishio.iconOnce the starting point and the landing point are determined, the rest is traced, and while tracing it, it can change.
nisbot.iconWhere does this "landing spot" come from?
nishio.icon👎Landing point
nisbot.iconWhat is its "starting point"?
nishio.iconDemonstration.
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "demo" is this "demo"?
nishio.iconShowing what it is actually doing and what it is like to make something
nisbot.iconWhat kind of "place" is that "place"?
nishio.icon👎 and where
nisbot.icon
My biggest concern is what form the announcement should take.
Is there anything else about this "announcement"?

What do you hope will happen regarding this "structure"?
