Past speaking

Presentations from all of my public engagements (and some client ones) are available for viewing and download at my page at Slideshare. Some of them include synced audio or video. Where possible, I now record all of my public events so that I can make audio and sometimes video available for all presentations.

All my presentations are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License. This means you are generally free to reuse and remix them for your own purposes so long as you attribute me as the source, do not directly make money from them and reshare your own material generated from mine. As a courtesy, an email with an explanation of what you’d like to do with the presentation usually results in me getting the source material to you in some form.
