I went looking for a slideshow today, trying to find comparisons to our own projects. The NYTimes.com report, Ghassan Elcheikhali: The Tolerance Teacher, is a presentation similar to our own multimedia projects. Lasting 2:11 min, the audio is from a single individual, and the slides are all stand alone with no next.
The report differs from our own in that the photos and audio are intended to provide seperate information. One is not directly reenforcing the other. While Elcheikhali tells of his experience as a Muslim interacting with other cultures in New York, the photos in the presentation give the audience a glimpse of Elcheikhali's world as the principal of a Muslim school in Queens. I enjoy the way this report uses the visual and auditory to reveal two facets of the same story: the Muslim and the resident of a multicultural community.
