"... is a section of the Earth's oceanic crust and the underlying upper mantle that has been uplifted and exposed above sea level and often emplaced onto continental crustal rocks."

I enjoyed the presentation but the recording of the event would be much more informative if the camera would stay fixed to the graphic portion and less on the presenter.
It’s the subject that’s important here and not the setting.
