Orson Welles and PowerPoint?
What would Orson Welles make of PowerPoint? (If you don't know who Orson Welles is, please watch Turner Classic Movies this month -- they will be playing some of his classic movies, including Citizen Kane. It's both a pleasure and an education to experience his film work.)
In this 11 minute, 40 second Podcast, I freely admit it: I have no idea what Orson Welles would do with PowerPoint. (Your comments and ideas are welcome, though -- !)
However, I do talk about the Power of Telling a Story. Mr. Welles was famous for crafting and delivering great stories. And he used a variety of media: radio, film, television, as well as good old print.
What's was more important to Welles: words...or graphics?

I also believe Orson Welles would have had alot of fun creating stories with digital tools of the 21st century. Who know where Mr. Welles would have taken us with PowerPoint, podcasting, and other new medias? It's interesting to surmise...but even more fun to do ourselves!
