@steveroyle@biologists.social @MCDuncanLab@mstdn.social the thing that I've found is that no matter how much we think we're telling an exciting detective story, for the audience it's not as exciting as we'd imagine. I think in my whole career I've seen maybe 2 or 3 talks that pulled off the detective story.

@neuralreckoning@neuromatch.social @MCDuncanLab@mstdn.social Dan, you brute, the audience is spellbound when I give a talk. Simply spellbound. Ha, no, you're probably right. Like Mara says though, setting out where you're going with the talk but not doing the full reveal is my preferred.
