Presentation Research

We have been asked to present our findings to the group in a PechaKucha format. Below is some research I have done into this...

'PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public.

1. What is PechaKucha 20x20?

   PechaKucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically and you talk along to the images.

2. Who invented the format?

   The presentation format was devised by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Klein Dytham architecture. The first PechaKucha Night was held in Tokyo in their gallery/lounge/bar/club/creative kitchen, SuperDeluxe, in February, 2003. Klein Dytham architecture still organize and support the global PechaKucha Night network and organize PechaKucha Night Tokyo.

3. Why invent this format?

   Because architects talk too much! Give a microphone and some images to an architect -- or most creative people for that matter -- and they'll go on forever! Give PowerPoint to anyone else and they have the same problem.'
