I hate PowerPoint, so I really wanted to link this essay. Unforunately, it's half a rant about how kids these days are stupid and should get off my lawn and half a description of how deep, inspiring humanities are better than soulless sciences.

You're better off reading this old but still relevant article, titled "PowerPoint is Evil":

Presentations largely stand or fall on the quality, relevance, and integrity of the content. If your numbers are boring, then you've got the wrong numbers. If your words or images are not on point, making them dance in color won't make them relevant. Audience boredom is usually a content failure, not a decoration failure.
