A Prezi: Contexts for William Blake’s Songs of Innocence and of Experience.
If you’ve never viewed a Prezi before:
1. “Prezi” is short for “presentation” — think of it like a live, online PowerPoint.
2. Once you click the “start” button in the middle of the page it’ll just sit there. There’s a button at the bottom right hand corner of the page that allows you to let it autoplay and to set the time delay from one element to the next. The Prezi will move from one circle to the next, left to right.
3. You can zoom in or out — and very closely — onto any individual element.
One of my first attempts at a Prezi. Song: “William Blake” by Daniel Amos.
