Last friday was a big day. We delivered the official release of the Virtual Reality Engine Room to the Maritime Institute of Terschelling. I was asked to do a small presentation on the building process and the future. I decided it was time again for a supporting ‘powerpoint’ presentation. This time I decided to try something new instead of the old and dull bulletpoints.

I went for the schematic approach by laying out a kind of association map around the topics I wished to talk about. I think it really works visually and because it makes use of 2D space and it engages the user to explore the slide. The schema’s were built over several slides so the audience were not overwhelmed by all the concepts. Every slide that adds to the schema builds on the concept I was explaining at the moment. I kind of delivered mind maps to the audience.

• The first slide that explaines my study Communication and Multimedia Design. All built with basic MS powerpoint (Mac) primitives

• One more for Leon about the process on creating the VRER.
