“Speaking of Powerpoint, I think the common format sucks, but not in the usual way people say it sucks… 1. During a presentation people are either listening to me speak or reading my slide, not both simultaneously, and 2. A deck doesn’t contain enough information to be meaningful on its own after the presentation. So, I’m going to try a format that uses one big image next to a paragraph of text. The text will be at a typeface impossible to read from the audience, wherever that is, so people will be forced to either listen to me or daydream.”
