Pecha Kucha Presentations

No, it's not an insult! Pecha Kucha is a presentation format introduced a few years ago in the Architecture world, which consists of a slide show of 20 images, each lasting 20 seconds, for a total (strict) presentation duration of 6 minutes 40 seconds.

Here's a video of a Pecha Kucha presentation at reboot 8.0 in Copenhagen, Denmark, last year, so you can see how it "feels" like:



You can read more about Pecha Kucha in Wikipedia, and if you are interested, there may be a Pecha Kucha night coming soon to a city near you...


P.S. Thanks to Robert Hoekman's Kaizen Software Manifesto for shedding light on this otherwise completely obscure concept.

Ahh yes. I was there that day at Reboot 8, it was because of Reboot 8 I dedicated myself to SugarStats. It was a bummer I missed this presentation though, I was in the other hall.

I was *this* close to going this year but things didn't work out. It would have been a good 1 year anniversary ;-)
