Last night was one of the most enjoyable evenings I have had for a long time. It was an evening of Pecha Kucha in Guildford organised by Simon Strong at the Bar Des Arts
Pecha Kucha events consist of around a dozen presentations, each presenter having 20 slides, each shown for 20 seconds. Each presenter has just 6 minutes 40 seconds to explain their ideas before the next presenter takes the stage.
It was the entertainment from the people in the group, we were just enjoying each others company. This reminded me very much of the Victorian times, entertainment was from with-in, not from with-out (an external source) – movie, recorded music.
“It is about people – stupid!”
The 11 speakers presented such a bewildering deplay of passions from their different backgrounds that I have booked to attend the next event on the 9th november 2010.
One speaker – Ben Matthews showed his range of light paintings – awesome and stunning! .
Thank you and well done Simon
