Timing delayed overlays in Beamer.

I'm currently constructing/experimenting with a presentation and in it I'd like to have a wall of text of badly convoluted writing appear. Ideally, what I'd like to do is, have the text transform or disappears automatically into a rageface. Does anyone know if this is possible ?

One cheap workaround I have is to make a "movie" consisting of just images but it being LaTeX I'm convinced there is probably a more elegant solution.

You should be able to do transitions that appear/disappear based on time. I know the details are in the man pages for beamer, and I can't find teh website I used for doing transitions last year.
\transduration{40} works for frames (move to next slide after 40 seconds), can't recall if the objects w/i a frame have a slightly different name for their transitions.

So in short, a) what you want exists, b) tree doesnt remember it offhand.

Section 14.3 of the beamer manual lists a whole bunch of different slide transition commands:
