Abstract:

In this paper we explore the possibilities of creating live presentations that can be adapted on the fly in response to the audience and time constraints. Our work also allows presenters to manage multiple versions of a presentation, each customized to a given situation. Customizable presentations are structured by nested sub-paths; this organization has several advantages over linear or hyperlinked presentations. We present a first pass at an interface for authoring and navigating such presentations.
