Pecha Kucha @ Vienna Design Week 8.10.2011

Pecha Kucha Night, devised by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham (Klein Dytham architecture), was conceived in 2003 as a place for young designers and architects to meet, network, and show their work in public. The key to Pecha Kucha Night is its patented system for avoiding ever lasting presentations: 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 their work.

Since its introduction Pecha Kucha has spread over more than 400 cities with events on a regular basis, visit www.pecha-kucha.org for more information in English.

If You want to make a Pecha Kucha please send an email to 20-20@pechakucha.at giving a short description what you want to talk about, respectively if available, send us some material about your work (e.g. photos, homepage, etc.). Deadline for applying is Saturday 1st of October 2011!
