The word “pecha kucha” means “chit-chat” in Japanese. It is a presentation concept introduced by the Japanese architect agency Klein Dytham for the first time in 2003, after which it has then taken off and spread to over 800 cities around the world. In a PechaKucha presentation the speakers can show a total of 20 pictures, each of them for only 20 seconds, resulting in a presentation of only 6 minutes and 40 seconds. Based on our experience from the past years, we can expect inspiring, exciting and surprising presentations from artist, designers, academics and scientists.
