Pecha Kucha night, pronounced "peh-chak-chak", was on in Vancouver on Thursday night. I'd have to say it was one of the most enjoyable art "shows" I've been to. It happens in 198 cities around the world! The basic idea is each presenter has 20 slides and talks about them for 20 seconds each and then the next speaker comes up. So if someone is boring they only bore you for 400 seconds. It was pretty wicked, speaking at the Vancouver Pecha Kucha were:

Michael Green - Architect
- Prince George, British Columbia Airport

Marian Bantjes - Graphic Designer


Chris Bentzen - Free Lance Print Designer (ThisisplanB.com)
I can't find any pictures of his work but he's most known for the Hot One Inch Action Shows

Julia Kwan - Film Maker
Fire Horse Productions

Toby Barratt - Designer

Has anybody attended any of the other Pecha Kucha nights? Or heard of them?
