"As We May Think" (1945)
When data of any sort are placed in storage,
they are filed alphabetically or numerically,
and information is found (when it is) by
tracing it down from subclass to subclass.
It can be in only one place, unless duplicates
are used; one has to have rules as to which
path will locate it, and the rules are cumbers-
ome. Having found one item, moreover, one
has to emerge from the system and re-enter
on a new path. The human mind does not
work that way. It operates by association. ...

"As We May Think" (1945) …
... It affords an immediate step, however, to
associative indexing, the basic idea of which
is a provision whereby any item may be
caused at will to select immediately and
automatically another. This is the essential
feature of the memex. The process of tying
two items together is the important thing. ...

"As We May Think" (1945) …
 Bush's article 'As We May Think'
(1945) is often seen as
the "origin" of hypertext
 Article introduces the Memex
 memory extender
 store and access information
 follow cross-references in the form
of associative trails between pieces
of information (microfilms)
 prototypical hypertext machine
 trail blazers are those who find delight in
the task of establishing useful trails

Hypertext (1965)
 Ted Nelson coined the term hypertext
 Nelson started Project Xanadu in 1960
 first hypertext project
 non-sequential writing
 referencing/embedding parts of a document
in another document (transclusion)
 transpointing windows
 bidirectional (bivisible) links
 version and rights management
 XanaduSpace 1.0 was released as part of Project
Xanadu in 2007

Digital Documents as a Paper Simulator?
Most people don't understand the logic of the
concept: "What You See Is What You Get" is based
on printing the document out ("get" means "get
WHEN YOU PRINT IT OUT"). And that means a
metaphysical shift: a document can only consist of
what can be printed! This re-froze the computer
document into a closed rectangular object which
cannot be penetrated by outside markings (curtailing
what you could do with paper). No marginal notes,
no sticky notes, no crossouts, no insertions, no
overlays, no highlighting - PAPER UNDER GLASS.

Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 36February 12, 2012
Some Tips for the Presentation
 Talk to the audience and not to your laptop screen
 do not read your talk from paper
 Make use of available resources and tools (in addition to
slideware) if appropriate
 overhead projector
 blackboard
 paper handouts
 laser pointer/highlighter
 ...
 A quick demo, movie or application screenshot can often
help to clarify an approach
Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 37February 12, 2012
Some Tips for the Presentation ...
 Content
 put the presented research paper in the right context (topic)
 investigate additional resources
- possibly use additional information (not from the paper) in the introduction
- check the content that is referenced in the paper
 do no overload your slides with long sentences
- the audience cannot read overloaded slides and at the same time listen to you
 do not just summarise the paper
- selection of important parts might be necessary due to time constraints
 use graphical features carefully
- a fancy slide background might reduce the readability
- too many colours and different fonts can be distractive
- no "misuse" of animations or sounds
Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 38February 12, 2012
Some Tips for the Presentation ...
 Content
 the slides should support your talk rather than being a script that
you read from the screen
 make sure that you do not have too much content for the 30 mins
- rehearsal
 if you copy content from the paper (e.g. figures) make sure that
they are readable – otherwise redo them
 avoid "empty" slides like the classical "Questions?" slide at the
end of a presentation
- the last slide is likely to be shown during the entire Q&A session and should
therefore be used for your give away message (e.g. some conclusions)
 prepare some backup slides which might support you during the
Q&A session
Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 39February 12, 2012
Some Tips for the Presentation ...
 Presentation style
 the audience will be more attentive if they see that you are
motivated to give the presentation
 think about your body language
 Preparation
 a good preparation gives you more confidence and freedom
during your presentation
 practice, practice, practice, ...
Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 40February 12, 2012
Some Tips for the Audience
 Of course the first and most important thing is that you
listen to the interesting talks and learn some new things
 Other things you might observe during the presentation
 is the structure of the talk clear?
 what about the presenter's presentation style
 even if you should not comment about these things, you might
always ask yourself how you might have done things differently or
learn new things from good presentations
 Ask questions and give comments after the presentation

  • 5. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 5February 12, 2012 "As We May Think" (1945) When data of any sort are placed in storage, they are filed alphabetically or numerically, and information is found (when it is) by tracing it down from subclass to subclass. It can be in only one place, unless duplicates are used; one has to have rules as to which path will locate it, and the rules are cumbers- ome. Having found one item, moreover, one has to emerge from the system and re-enter on a new path. The human mind does not work that way. It operates by association. ... Vannevar Bush
  • 6. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 6February 12, 2012 "As We May Think" (1945) … ... It affords an immediate step, however, to associative indexing, the basic idea of which is a provision whereby any item may be caused at will to select immediately and automatically another. This is the essential feature of the memex. The process of tying two items together is the important thing. ... Vannevar Bush, As We May Think, Atlanic Monthly, July 1945 Vannevar Bush

  • 12. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 12February 12, 2012 Digital Documents as a Paper Simulator? Most people don't understand the logic of the concept: "What You See Is What You Get" is based on printing the document out ("get" means "get WHEN YOU PRINT IT OUT"). And that means a metaphysical shift: a document can only consist of what can be printed! This re-froze the computer document into a closed rectangular object which cannot be penetrated by outside markings (curtailing what you could do with paper). No marginal notes, no sticky notes, no crossouts, no insertions, no overlays, no highlighting - PAPER UNDER GLASS. Ted Nelson, Geeks Bearing Gifts: How the Computer World Got This Way, Mindful Press 2009 Ted Nelson

  • 36. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 36February 12, 2012 Some Tips for the Presentation  Talk to the audience and not to your laptop screen  do not read your talk from paper  Make use of available resources and tools (in addition to slideware) if appropriate  overhead projector  blackboard  paper handouts  laser pointer/highlighter  ...  A quick demo, movie or application screenshot can often help to clarify an approach
  • 37. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 37February 12, 2012 Some Tips for the Presentation ...  Content  put the presented research paper in the right context (topic)  investigate additional resources - possibly use additional information (not from the paper) in the introduction - check the content that is referenced in the paper  do no overload your slides with long sentences - the audience cannot read overloaded slides and at the same time listen to you  do not just summarise the paper - selection of important parts might be necessary due to time constraints  use graphical features carefully - a fancy slide background might reduce the readability - too many colours and different fonts can be distractive - no "misuse" of animations or sounds
  • 38. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 38February 12, 2012 Some Tips for the Presentation ...  Content  the slides should support your talk rather than being a script that you read from the screen  make sure that you do not have too much content for the 30 mins - rehearsal  if you copy content from the paper (e.g. figures) make sure that they are readable – otherwise redo them  avoid "empty" slides like the classical "Questions?" slide at the end of a presentation - the last slide is likely to be shown during the entire Q&A session and should therefore be used for your give away message (e.g. some conclusions)  prepare some backup slides which might support you during the Q&A session
  • 39. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 39February 12, 2012 Some Tips for the Presentation ...  Presentation style  the audience will be more attentive if they see that you are motivated to give the presentation  think about your body language  Preparation  a good preparation gives you more confidence and freedom during your presentation  practice, practice, practice, ...
  • 40. Beat Signer - Department of Computer Science - bsigner@vub.ac.be 40February 12, 2012 Some Tips for the Audience  Of course the first and most important thing is that you listen to the interesting talks and learn some new things  Other things you might observe during the presentation  is the structure of the talk clear?  what about the presenter's presentation style  even if you should not comment about these things, you might always ask yourself how you might have done things differently or learn new things from good presentations  Ask questions and give comments after the presentation
