Pecha Kucha is coming up this fall in London on the 18th of October and on the 1st of December in Amsterdam and I feel incredibly temped to participate. For those of you who don’t know what this this, its a way for designers to talk about their work, network and meet potential clients as well potentially. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds each – giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to show.
I wonder what i would present though: either Stickychat, The Hungries (Alejandro is presenting them at the Bogota edition), or maybe Stint.
Yeah, I saw the hungries thing at PKNBogotá :]
You can show all those things in the same presentation, Some presenters such as the above-mentioned found the hard way that 6min40sec is a lot of time. Remember that is not only for designers but for just about any kind of people with ideas (I attended the presentations of a writer, a hairdresser and a poet among the more conventional design fauna’s presentations)
Did you end up presenting (or even attending the Bright event)? I had fun doing mine a while ago in Rotterdam. It was on mobile gaming. If you’re into that kind of thing, I’d love to hear what you think. PS – Are you at Blast Radius Amsterdam? In that case we’re neighbours! (I’m at Info.nl, which has its offices below them.)
Hey Kars,
Yeh I’m upstairs at Blast, funny that. Unfortunately I was back in the UK in October so couldn’t attend but would have loved to. Ping me if you wanna have coffee one of these days…
I see you’re in Belgium now; I’ll be sure to ping you sometime!
