duh

In thinking about the presentation for Miami, I realize that my problem with the visual part of the presentation brings up exactly the same old word-picture problem. How to make the 'background' presentation something more than illustration, without it becoming distracting or overwhelming.

Lessig's presentation *is* illustration, with emphasis. His speaking and the projections play off each other beautifully... but what is up on the big screen is still illustration, still "here are my main points" -- just done with wit.

How do I want to go? Need to think on this... and how to compose the two parts together? As a whole?
