The Hardt Method using Keynote 2.0 on a Mac computer - Dick Hardt (posted by ~Aja)

Another alternate PowerPoint presentation style is the Hardt Method. In 2005, Dick Hardt gave a presentation at OSCON entitled, "Identity 2.0" in which he used 200 slides to tell a funny and interesting story about digital identity and the World Wide Web. Specifically, Hardt addressed digital identity and important issues associated with it such as notions of trust, verification security and privacy. Hardt used creative and engaging visuals aligned with storytelling elements to yield a  fresh and inspiring presentation that moved beyond the traditional bulleted PowerPoint presentation.

Techniques used:
  • Speech opening & question: "Who am I?"
  • Lots of humour
  • Keeping the big picture
  • Repetition
  • Lessig techniques
  • Summary of presentation chunks
  • Analogies Abound
For detailed discussion of the above techniques see the following Reference below:
