PechaKucha at OEB

Taking its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", PechaKucha (pronounced "pe-chak-cha") centres around a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.
The fun part is watching the likes of Graham Attwell, Steve Wheeler, Heike Philp, David James Clarke VI and Jay Cross try to deliver presentations in less than seven minutes. You'll feel the energy level in the room take off when the starting gun goes off and the timer is ticking away.
The practical part is finding out how much information can be covered in a very brief time. Some corporations have experimented with the PechaKucha format for business meetings. They sometimes find that with prior planning, you can cover as much material in six minutes as you are accustomed to presenting in an hour! Imagine the time you could save if you could shrink your sessions to 10 per cent of their original size!
Whether for entertainment value or out of curiosity for this experimental format, we hope you'll join us for a crazy but informative PechaKucha session.
For more information on PechaKucha, check out this 6 minutes and 40 seconds presentation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ4supn_I3g or see http://www.pecha-kucha.org/.
