  Volume 7 in partnership with Flyleaf Books   What IS Pecha Kucha Night? Pecha Kucha is “the sound of conversation” in Japanese. Devised by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham in 2003, it began as a place for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It has evolved since then and has become a terrific venue for getting ideas and concepts out. Presenters each have 20 slides and 20 seconds per slide to discuss. Slides are automatically timed to be exactly 20 seconds with the total time for each presenter is 6 minutes and 40 seconds. This keeps the pace fun & exciting. Learn more about the format at www.pecha-kucha.org. Tickets: $5 each.
