Warning, this was last tested as far as I can tell in Pharo 1.1.1.

Sophie looked very promising... Unfortunately it was not open source and died 
before porting it to Java (following the Illuminati conspiracy of porting 
Smalltalk break througts to "inferior" technology, as happens once and again 
:-P).

There be might be some gems in it to achieve what you want

I remember using CompendiumNG some time ago, but not for presentations. 
Hopefully, we will have something better, with metamedium capabilities, 
including embedding other media and make it programmable in Pharo, without 
going to the "disastrous" slide metaphor.

I agree with you – on the rare occasions I do still do presentations I tend to 
use CompendiumNG, which is similar to a mind map but can contain any content, 
including multimedia content.  It was an Open University project but was used 
sufficiently elsewhere that when the Open University decided they were done 
with it the project was forked and continued by others.
 
It’s written in Java, currently I believe there’s no binary although it’s easy 
to build.  If you just wanted the installer jar to try it out though let me 
know.
 
Honestly though I’d probably still use Director if it weren’t for Adobe’s 
pricing.

Maybe. I refer the whole aesthetics of slides (even the ones with
animations or simulations). You go in slide at the time, bullet point by
bullet point, loosing context and perspective. My usual approach is mind
maps. In [1] you can see the exported SVG version of the one I use in a
Grafoscopio workshop. Source code is in [2].
