Current Job I am currently employed as a technical communicator at TOWER Software in Canberra. TOWER Software's flagship product is TRIM Captura, an Electronic Recordkeeping Tool. Its primary role is to keep track of the flow of information between people inside and outside of an organisation. This tracking process is called "records management". The exciting thing about TRIM Captura (for me anyway), is that it captures more than just transactional information. The search tools built into TRIM Captura enable you to mine the data in the records and examine the collected wisdom of the organisation. As a technical communicator TOWER expects me to write, design and organise (simple really).
Communications and information design One of the things I enjoy most about my work is the fact I have to use a combination of words and pictures to communicate complex ideas in the simplest possible way. In my exploration of this subject I have come across a series of books that have influenced the way I think about visual and written communication. The books listed below are a good read for anyone interested in the visual aspects of communication.
