Interesting UDL slideshow: Shift happens
This is a sideshow about identity web 2.0.

I post it because many aspects of the presentation exhibit multiple means of representation, and because the presentation style very original!
The presenter confronts the viewer with a multitude of disturbing facts about population, resources, and technological proliferation. The facts span the last twenty or so years--did I mention they are disturbing?--and they crave a solution. Enter presents product--to create a digital identification system that mimics the simplicity of that found in the use of passports and drivers licenses in the real world (as opposed to having a different log in name for every website). Sounds like a pretty good idea....
Its not the content that is UDL'd, but the way it is introduced. Nearly every word he says in his presentation is supplemented with a visual. The visuals are a mixture of simple textual representations (one at a time), pictures, screen grabs, logos, and diagrams. The overall all effect of such exhaustive representation is the feeling that you are watching a movie rather than a slide show. I think the style lends itself particularly well to the content, but I'm not sure it will work for everyone. I sincerely encourage anyone to check it out and see if it works for them. I've never seen anything like it.
