Beardsley Public Library Online Presentation Notes
On February 23, 2023, we held a Nikoloz Gvasalia-Fermata Arts Foundation presentation for Beardsley Public Library. Compared to other libraries, this presentation turned out to be quite unusual. Due to meteorological and technical reasons, our NGO and Beardsley Public Library decided to present the lecture in the form of a video.
After making the decision, we started organizing the recording studio in a few minutes, I have never had any experience in electronic communication, but we soon organized the studio, set up art installations, and started recording.
The first and main problem, for me, was probably the absence of a slide show, the main course of the presentation is based on the visual side, of course, it is much easier to explain the visual picture to the audience than to talk to them about the topics and culture that is foreign to them. I tried to solve this problem and after my speech, I tried to introduce the visual side of my presentation to the audience.
Other aspects of the presentation went well for me, especially the question-and-answer session with Mr. Nikolay Synkov was very interesting, as well as the detailed description and explanation of the art installations.
Overall, I can say that the new challenge, the virtual side of the presentation turned out to be very informative and interesting for me. Such innovative ways, I think, are a source of great experience.
