Earlier today we tweeted this Prezi presentation on alternatives to PowerPoint/Keynote for researchers that Tim Macer gave at a recent ASC conference.

It proved a popular link, so we thought we’d turn the presentation into an audio slideshow (just to see how well it would come out). The result is above, it’s only 5mins long so enjoy! A larger version is available on our YouTube page. Or you can revert to the original Prezi version.

Presentation designer and internationally acclaimed communications expert Garr Reynolds, creator of the most popular Presentation Zen, shares his experience in a provocative mix of illumination, inspiration, education, and guidance that will change the way you think about making presentations with PowerPoint or Keynote.

Presentation Zen challenges the conventional wisdom of making “slide presentations” in today’s world and encourages you to think differently and more creatively about the preparation, design, and delivery of your presentations. Garr shares lessons and perspectives that draw upon practical advice from the fields of communication and business. Combining solid principles of design with the tenets of Zen simplicity, this book will help you along the path to simpler, more effective presentations.
