42 in PowerPoint

Or to put it another way:

Le Grand Content examines the omnipresent Powerpoint-culture in search for its philosophical potential. Intersections and diagrams are assembled to form a grand ‘association-chain-massacre’. which challenges itself to answer all questions of the universe and some more. Of course, it totally fails this assignment, but in its failure it still manages to produce some magical nuance and shades between the great topics death, cable tv, emotions and hamsters.

The video itself is an experience in presentation media and I couldn’t help but wonder if it is possible for mere mortals like me to create a presentation with the visual impact of this video. The difference between this sort of presentation and the usual PowerPoint slide presentation is pretty obvious and what is equally obvious is how much scope there is to express ideas visually. This is where the really great presentation companies distinguish themselves and where I stop talking as if I know what I am talking about when it comes to presentations.
