There are many true statements about complex topics that are too long to fit on a PowerPoint slide.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
PowerPoint may not be of any use for you in a presentation, but it may liberate you in another way, an artistic way. Who knows.
If you like overheads, you'll love PowerPoint.
If anything, Powerpoint, if used well, would ideally reflect the way we think.
I have personally seen statements that were longer than some books I have read.
Naturally, the reader has access only to the events I show and the way I show them, but as has been said, there's generally a good deal of ambiguity in that presentation.
There's not a lot of art forms where you can control your presentation and your ideas.
I work intentionally to try and make dense, complex things. We can move between genres and forms, from something that looks like a PowerPoint lecture to something that looks like an informercial to something that looks like a cinematic melodrama.
I think most documentaries are too long.
Think of Slide as a giant media network for people to transmit information. The content that's in there now has been provided by users - it's whatever they want it to be.
PowerPoint makes us stupid.
