Pecha Kucha Cardiff | 24 April

Tomorrow I'll be putting on my Parthian work hat and doing  a mini presentation on women writers in Wales at Pecha Kucha in Chapter.

More info about Pecha Kucha Cardiff:


PechaKucha Night Cardiff is a free event which is part of a worldwide phenomena now showing in 400 cities worldwide, with over 1000 events each year.


Drawing it’s name from the Japanese term for the sound of ‘chit chat’, PechaKucha invites selected speakers to share their knowledge through 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise and keeps things moving at a rapid pace, creating tempo, story, tension, show and tell.


PechaKucha Night Cardiff is launched and hosted by Louisa Cameron and is supported by Chapter; Cardiff School of Art & Design, UWIC; Design Wales; Orangutan Studio; Inkling Creative and Culture Colony – Y Wladfa Newydd.


PechaKucha Night is trademarked, devised and shared by Klein Dytham architecture.
