Quotable Quotes “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” ~ Einstein “Multimedia is a very effective presentation and sale tool. If you’re being driven somewhere in the back seat of a car, you may not remember how you got to your destination; but if you had been driving the car yourself, chances are you could get there again. Studies indicate that if you’re stimulated with audio, you will have a 20 percent retention rate, audiovisual is up to 30 percent, and in interactive multimedia presentations where you are really involved, the retention rate is a high as 60 percent” ~ Einstein & Sandom. “Defining multimedia reminds me of an ancient proverb about three blind men, each encountering an elephant for the first time. One, touching the tail, said it was like a rope. Another, embracing the beast’s leg, described it as a tree. The third, holding the elephant’s trunk, likened it to a snake. Multimedia can appear to be different things, depending on whom you ask” ~ Jeff Burger, NewMedia Magazine
