Awesome User Experiences: A conference hall where you won't miss a single minute even if you need a bathroom break

A few weeks ago, I attended a seminar on corporate marketing. The seminar was held at the Marunouchi Building, which is a building in a skyscraper district in Tokyo. There was a hall where the lecturers did their presentations and outside of the hall was the lobby and the restroom. What was cool was that both the lobby and restrooms had speakers that broadcasted the mic inputs in the hall.  

So, if you needed to go to the restroom in a middle of a session, you could still listen to the session in the restroom so you wouldn't miss a single minute.

Imagine if they could do something like that in theaters, but then that would require each screen to have its own restroom.

Thanks for reading SWG!
