We decided the best thing to do is to give you the low down for each day so here goes day three.

Welcome to day three of OFFSET 2016, we’re opening the Accenture stage at 12pm with a panel discussion featuring Dublin’s favourite hun Aoife Dooley, joined by OFFSET patron Steve Simpson, calligraphy genius Seb Lester and Mr. Bingo fresh after yesterday’s talk on the main stage. The panel will present Going Viral : Create Your Own Audience, a talk jam-packed with tips and guidance to help you boost your audience awareness.aoife3

Just before lunch design historian Doctor Linda King will chat to Studio Dunbar who travelled all the way from Holland for OFFSET this weekend, so give them a warm welcome as they present Designing for the Real World with Studio Dunbar at 1pm at the Accenture stage on level three.

Once you’ve had a nice break overlooking the glimmering Grand Canal Docks (the weather predicts a sunny one), make sure to head to the Accenture stage at 3pm to catch some music design legends with Jonathan Barnbrook, Steve Averill, Conor Clarke and Russell Mills. Russell currently is showing Blueprint for a Storm at the NCAD Gallery so make sure to check that out before it finishes up on April 29th.

The talk will be chaired by the one and only Kate Coleman. Úna will also be presenting a talk on the main stage at 3pm.

Thanks to the guys from Accenture for joining us this weekend, and to all of our speakers for chatting, debating and inspiring OFFSET attendees at our 2016 conference.
