Slides first.
My own experience is that someone typing code where I've not seen at
least a summary explaination ahead of time slides straight off my brain.
Ideally, two projectors: the current slides and an interactive python
environment for demos. That way people can cross reference.
But otherwise: a few slides, then a short demo if what was just spoken
about, then slides...
