Digital Book World’s NYC 7x20x21 is a PechaKucha-style event with a couple of tweaks.
Pecha what…? Kucha who…?
PechaKucha 20×20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images forward automatically and you talk along to the images. 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 organise PechaKucha Night Tokyo.

Oh I should have been to that event. But I couldn’t fly to New York. Is there a part 2, near CA?
