Presentation with great visualization and emotion
posted on Sat, April 21st, 2007
Hans Rosling gave a very good presentation on third-world myths at the TED conference last year. The presentation was titled "Debunking third-world myths with the best stats you’ve ever seen" and it is true. The statistics he is presenting and his performance are very persuasive. This is clearly a very good demonstration on how a good visualization and a good presenter can be able to keep the audience attached to the presentation even if the topic are actually just numbers.
All TED presentation from last year have been made publicly available just lately. I recommend browsing through some of them as most of them are great.
Here are some of my favourits:
- Golan Levin: The truly soft side of software
- Joshua Prince-Ramus: Designing the Seattle Central Library
- Seth Godin: Sliced bread and other marketing delights
