Next PechaKucha will be 28th of Feb­ru­ary, start­ing at 20:20. Tick­ets costs 6 Euro.

For those not in the know, Pecha Kucha is an inno­v­a­tive approach to giving pre­sen­ta­tions that is taking design and archi­tec­ture cir­cles by storm. This format ensures that pre­sen­ta­tions last no longer than 6 min­utes and 40 sec­onds as speak­ers are lim­ited to using 20 slides, each of which is shown for only 20 sec­onds. These simple rules have resulted in Pecha Kucha nights becom­ing syn­ony­mous with punchy, fast-​flowing pre­sen­ta­tions that keep audi­ences on their toes.

The Pecha Kucha craze orig­i­nated in Tokyo among cre­ative pro­fes­sion­als as a means to intro­duce and exchange ideas with peers; and is named after the Japan­ese ono­matopoeic equiv­a­lent for chitchat. As it con­tin­ues to sweep through major cities all over the world, it is quite fit­ting that Pecha Kucha has made its way to the Embassy of Japan.
