01. What is PechaKucha 20x20 ?
PechaKucha 20x20 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.
I'm spending a few moments between subbing the magazines' pages by exploring the interesting world of being a "digital creative". After several clicks from page to site to page, I eventually washed up on the PechaKucha website. This celebrates a form of presentation (named after the Japanese term for the sound of conversation - "chit-chat") where each individual shows twenty images, each for twenty seconds. It keeps a limit on the time-frame (stopping creative types waffling) and also helps to focus watchers on what's being said.
This would be a great way to demonstrate photography projects, either with other photographers or even just part of a group of artistic people who all have projects or hobbies to share with each other. Nice idea.
