If you would like to know more about the amazing Bernard Katz, one of his more complete obituaries can be found at www.onemol.org...., and a shorter one, from the independent newspaper, at www.onemol.org....
The lecture was given in 1993, when Katz was 82. The audio recording was on a CD in the form of 13 separate files, The PowerPoint slides. also on the CD were made later for a memorial meeting for Katz held in 2003 (as shown by the last slide). The slides were made by Robert Ribchester (University of Edinburgh) for a memorial meeting for Katz that he organised in the Department of Neuroscience in Edinburgh, shortly after Katz died.
The slides are those shown in the lecture (some with added explanation) with a few added for a general audience. For example, The train of EPPs illustrating synaptic depression, shown at about 41:30, is one of Ribchester's recordings, which was published as Figure 2i; Adalbert et al.,Eur J. Neurosci, 2005, 21: 271-277).
(If you aren't fond of the comic sans typeface, please blame Ribchester, not me.)
I have tried to coordinate the slides with the soundtrack to make this video.
