Guru on Paper: Edward Tufte

As requested by Jon Hicks,
I present to you none other than one of my favourite gurus: Edward Tufte. From
his book Envisioning Information
to his latest essay on
Powerpoint, the man has changed my views on (information) design and has
been an inspiration ever since I made my first chart.

Through the magic of bits and bytes I have teleported a younger Edward Tufte
to the twenty-first century! As you can see he is giving a presentation on good
design. Somehow that particular slide looks familiar… Can it be that Tufte
has been notified of the latest
revolution in blogosphere? Has he come to realize that the new generation
is ready to take on the living legends?

So what guru shall I draw next? Mention your favourite in the comments.
