[O] Talks about Org Babel

2012-02-21 Thread Carsten Dominik
Dear all,

a colleague from the computer science department of our university
saw our paper about Org-mode in the Journal of Statistical Software,
and has asked me to give a seminar about it.

I myself only make limited use of Org Babel myself, and I would
have to start from scratch to prepare that presentation.  So I was
wondering if anyone here has already given talks about Org Babel,
and if there is some material (Slides and examples good for a talk)
that I could use to get a fast start.

Thanks

- Carsten

Hi Carsten,

First thing:  I think Stephen Eglen curates a list of org mode
material.  So maybe you'll find sth there.

Also feel free to make use of my presentation at the useR2011.  But
beware, it is quite theoretical (reproducible research) and the examples
are very basic.  You can find the pdf and the sources (old babel
syntax...) here:

Hi Carsten,

I was also asked to give a talk in relation to our recent paper (by the
high performance computing group at my university).  My talk will be on
March 25th, and I have not yet begun to prepare slides, but I will
certainly share them with you once I get started.  I'll likely keep them
in a public git repository on github -- I'll follow up to this email
once I've created the repository.

I'm planning on using epresent [1] to run my presentation directly from
an Org-mode file as that way I should be able to run demos directly from
the presentation, but such a file should likely also be useful for
export to Beamer.

Cheers,
