Magazine Library, Print Culture, and Manizales’ Poster Promotions

May 14th, 2012

We’re experimenting with this new post format again, trying to give you more bang for your buck in terms of offering a daily snapshot of what’s happening in the world of PechaKucha, and trying to save you from the endless streams of feed notifications that seem to clutter our lives.

Presentations
As we recently covered on the blog, we had a special PechaKucha event this past Friday here in Tokyo, as part of the 10th edition of the Magazine Library exhibition. We invited 5 presenters to cover topics that touch on magazines and print culture, and we’ll be sharing all of them online today and tomorrow. Today, you get to hear Audrey Fondecave talk about the upcoming issue of TOO MUCH (”the magazine of romantic geography”), Mike Abelson talk about his stationery brand Postalco, and a recent printing project he embarked on, and Luis Mendo tells us how Tokyo turned this editorial designer into an artist.

PKN Manizales Vol. 1

Posters
We’ve got another new batch of PKN posters and flyers up on our Tumblr blog, including a few examples of what was produced for PKN Manizales Vol. 1 (above, a flyer), as well as from PKN Muscat Vol. 1, PKN Beirut Vol. 13, PKN Buffalo Vol. 12, PKN Cagliari Vol. 2, and PKN Moscow Vol. 12.

Event Photos
We know you love seeing event photos — to get a feel for how PKNs are being done around the world — and we’re going to be sharing even more, by posting links to even more galleries than in the past. Pictured above, a scene from March’s PKN Sao Paulo Vol. 10, as well as a few happy attendees during the beer break.

Links
A few PechaKucha-related links from around the webosphere.

  • A fun call-for-entries video (above) for the upcoming PKNs (Vol. 2 and 3) in Genoa 
  • An interview (in Russian) with our friends from PKN Moscow at Theoryandpractice
  • We don’t usually like to give too much instructions on how to do a presentation — we like to see how each person approaches the format — but for those in need a few tips, this post might help

Calendar
It’s a quiet Monday with no PechaKucha Nights happening tonight, but tomorrow night, Helsingborg will be hosting its PechaKucha Night Vol. 8, happening at the Helsingborgs Stadsteater.
