+# Conference Communication Design Building Blocks
+
+As an introvert I like - well, I need to - spend time alone.
+I get my best ideas on my own. But when I truly thrive is
+when I am connected with others, cocreating.
+
+For the last couple of weeks it's been difficult for me to
+work on the visual design for the MiniDebConf in Barcelona
+next month. There have been practical reasons, but the real
+reason was that I was feeling stuck and overwhelmed.
+
+Sharing my uncomfortable feelings with my boyfriend finally
+made me able to see that I have been feeling alone, and
+feeling that I had to prove myself with my work. I felt
+disconnected from the people in Debian I want to cooperate with.
+
+I'd really benefit from sharing my thoughts and ideas more
+with others. The unpleasant feeling of "stuckness" dissolved
+when I said out loud what they were about, and ideas for
+changing my state appeared. Now I've started hanging out on the
+irc-channel more, I've asked for help in finding stuff in the
+huge pile of info, rules and previous examples and experiences
+at debian.org and my decision to blog and share more is
+strengthened. Finally the work has begun.
+
+Conferences are about meeting up and getting connected. Listening
+to somebody trying to enlighten you on a subject. Getting inspired.
+
+And so my idea of using speech bubbles as a visual identity koncept
+for the conference has everything to do with my own experience of
+connection and disconnection.
+
+Release, early, release often, I cannot say that I have done that.
+We really need the peoposals to be ready now. Thankfully I'll have
+time in the following days to get feedback and finish. I really hope
+people will accept the idea, but I'm expecting a debate.
