Phil Arena was supposed to present his paper, “Crisis Bargaining and Domestic Opposition” at APSA. If you are reading this on an RSS feed, you should see the audio. His slides are not integrated, as his audio presentation is in mp3 format.
This is the first of what I hope will be more of these. If you need an APSA fix, or are just interested in the topic, take 10-15 minutes to listen to Phil’s presentation and leave feedback.
If and when we accumulate more #virtualAPSA2012 presentations, I will create a more conference-like environment for them.
Daniel H. Nexon is a Professor at Georgetown University, with a joint appointment in the Department of Government and the School of Foreign Service. His academic work focuses on international-relations theory, power politics, empires and hegemony, and international order. He has also written on the relationship between popular culture and world politics.
Very nice. We need to teach you how to integrate the slides into an enhanced format!
Thanks, Dan. I’ll work on that!
Phil, I haven’t tried this but some recommend the movie15 package. Beamer also has a multimedia package that lets you embed audio files in the PDF and play back using Adobe Reader’s built-in media player (not sure about other PDF viewers) but that seems less powerful than movie15 (the audio file is separate from the PDF file).
Am not sure if movie15 will do what you want but a quick read of its documentation seems to suggest that it should. You also have to adjust the slide duration to accommodate the time you spend talking about each slide.
I might try it for kicks.
P.S. Your paper’s a good read; might have a couple of comments once I digest it more fully.
Thanks for the suggestions, TT. I will look into it!
And I’m glad you enjoyed the paper. I look forward to any comments you might have.
