DESCRIPTION
This is the same presentation as "Grow Your Brain (dull version)" but how much more interesting is this to look at? You'll notice that this slide deck has a lot more visual imagery, much less text, more slides, and actually requires me (the presenter). The dull version was sort of a document - you could read it and didn't need a presenter to discuss the content at all, really. This presentation doesn't really work without the presenter, and that's the point! Who wants to give a presentation in which they themselves are irrelevant? It may not be the world's best presentation slide deck ever, but it's a step in the right direction.
