Here’s an old video teaser that the city of Porto produced before it held its very first PechaKucha Night, back in 2008. Appropriately enough, the video is 20 seconds long. You can also see all who presented on the official event page. The city unfortunately no longer has an active city, but you never know when it might start up again.
As you’ll be able to tell from the photos included in this post, the recent PechaKucha Night in Porto Vol. 5 included a 3-D component, courtesy of a presentation by Ivo e Matilde, two young architects from Porto. And as the organizers tell us, they also had a Japanese presenter — Ren Ito, an architect — who explained to the crowd the meaning of “PechaKucha” (the short answer is that it’s the sound of “chit chat”).
PechaKucha Night returns to Porto on Thursday (May 28), this time to be held at Largo da Bouça. Pictured above, the flyer for the first edition — hope the person living there got the message!
