Dimitris Rigopoulos is a journalist for the Greek daily newspaper Kathimerini, and in this presentation, he talks about why he likes the city of Athens so much. It was recorded at PechaKucha Night in Athens Vol. 3, and is in Greek.
Athens is getting set to host its third PechaKucha Night, happening March 5 at Interni. The event will also do its part in raising funds for the reconstruction efforts in Haiti with the sale of buttons. Here’s more from the organizing team:
There is something elso too. The PKN team of Athens is actively trying to contribute to the PechaKucha for Haiti initiative and invites the PechaKucha Athens audience to participate in this effort. Collectible buttons designed exclusively for PKN Athens by the creative offices of Design Walk, are going to be on sale during the event of 5th March. All proceeds from this sale will go to the foundation of Architecture for Humanity currently helping to rebuild Haiti.
Exchanging photographic or video greetings between PechaKucha Night cities is something we’ve been seeing for a while now, and here’s an example of some good luck cheers between two cities — Cleveland and Athens — who recently celebrated their third and second volumes respectively. Pictured above, greetings from Cleveland.
PechaKucha Night returns to Athens next week (Friday, May 8) for Vol. 2, to be held at an old t-shirt factory in the city’s center. As for the lineup, expect to see two architects, a chef, a biologist, two artists, an industrial designer, one opera team, a businessman, and a motion design company.
