Since it is a battle of the geeks my presentation *must* at least include Douglas Adams and penguins.... thanks for pointing that out ;) Those ideas are strange and unexpected… but nonetheless useful.

And put some awkward shadows between Harry Potter and the scenery when he's flying on his broom. Haha. But since you have a background in music, I would exploit that and make something that makes cool sounds. Like the guy does in Douglas Adams' book about Dirk Gently, you know. He turns the flow of graphs and charts into music. Or something about either penguins or ducks, since the coolness factor of penguins is unmatched in the universe and ducks are plain delicious. Hope these ideas help at all. :) Don’t think you can do this in 15 seconds, but it would be cool to have a program that makes special effects look more fake again! :D Like add some strings to Megatron’s arms and head, in Transformers.
