Pecha Kucha is a presentation format for creative work originally devised by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Kein-Dytham Architecture (KDa)<http://www.klein-dytham.com/>in Tokyo, Japan in 2003. The name derives from a Japanese term for the sound of conversation ("chit-chat").
A Pecha Kucha night is an event format in which presenters show a data "slideshow" of *20 images*, each of which is shown *for 20 seconds* — giving a total presentation time of 6 minutes 40 seconds. Each event usually has 14 presenters. Presenters (and much of the audience) are usually from the design, architecture, photography, art and creative fields. The event format has been replicated in more than 42 cities, including London, San Francisco , Seattle, Rotterdam, Shanghai and Berlin. Events usually are limited to one each month per city and a minimum of four events per year. Mark Dytham, of KDarchitecture Tokyo, the inventor of the Pecha Kucha Nights concept is coming to Auckland. The date of the first Pecha Kucha event will be next Thursday *April 19*, at Galatos off K Road, Auckland, 8:20pm If you want to be a presenter at our first Pecha Kucha Night Auckland, please send an email with the following informations to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED] , subject "application"
