One important issue about Powerpoint is that the last time I looked - it is not free and not everyone has it.

There is however, a free alternative which is part of OpenOffice: http://www.openoffice.org/product/impress.html

You can use any sort of images, text, audio, captions, ... whatever ... that you want. The end product is a power point presentation.  Then you can run that presentation automatically  in an endless loop, full screen, transitioning from slide to slide every few seconds (your choice of timing). This is simple to do, requires no other application to display, and takes seconds per page to create.  You can have the computer equivalent of the "35mm film-slide carousel" very quickly.   Furthermore, we can start with a a basic core of slides, and as time permits during the Fest we can add more slides.
