I was thinking of using it more for ideas of what works / what doesn���t.

I remember using CompendiumNG some time ago, but not for presentations. Hopefully, we will have something better, with metamedium capabilities, including embedding other media and make it programmable in Pharo, without going to the "disastrous" slide metaphor.

I agree with you ��� on the rare occasions I do still do presentations I tend to use CompendiumNG, which is similar to a mind map but can contain any content, including multimedia content. It was an Open University project but was used sufficiently elsewhere that when the Open University decided they were done with it the project was forked and continued by others.
It���s written in Java, currently I believe there���s no binary although it���s easy to build. If you just wanted the installer jar to try it out though let me know.
Honestly though I���d probably still use Director if it weren���t for Adobe���s pricing.

Maybe. I refer the whole aesthetics of slides (even the ones with
animations or simulations). You go in slide at the time, bullet point by
bullet point, loosing context and perspective. My usual approach is mind
maps. In [1] you can see the exported SVG version of the one I use in a
Grafoscopio workshop. Source code is in [2].
