A Tour of Koszalin, the Final Word on Beer, All With Accordion Accompaniment

May 17th, 2012

PKN Dayton

Presentations
Today’s two presentations come your way from Koszalin and Dayton. The one from Koszalin is by none other than PKN Koszalin organizer Gall Podlaszewski, and was done as part of our Global Cities Week. So follow Gall as she talks about her city (in Polish), PechaKucha-style. From Dayton, we get beer afficionado Max Spang who in “What the Hell Is Beer?” will go to great lengths to prove just how much he loves beer (and he’s not alone).

PKN Yerevan Vol. 16

Posters
On the poster front today, we’ve added three new ones, including posters for the upcoming collaboration between PKN Istanbul and PKN Yerevan (which this time, is an invitation-only event — pictured above is the poster from the Yerevan side), and the poster for tonight’s PKN Taos Vol. 6, celebrating “the remarkable women of Taos.” 

PKN Panjim Vol. 2

PKN Washington Vol. 17

Photos
We’ve started sharing more and more event galleries on our official PechaKucha Night Flickr account — in the past it was only used for our Tokyo events — and here are the latest photosets that have been added. Above, a shot from this month’s PKN Panjim Vol. 2, followed by a look at PKN Washington Vol. 17.

That Toronto set only has 2 photos, but the accordion player you see pictured is Ben Harvey, and he has performed at both Vol. 14 and Vol. 15. Below is a video of Ben in action (recorded/edited by Circuit Bent Media).

Calendar
It’s looking like a great Friday, with 5 PechaKucha Nights in the calendar for tomorrow (May 18): PKN Zurich Vol. 11, PKN Varberg Vol. 2, PKN Singapore Vol. 4, PKN Lodz Vol. 8, and PKN Hakata Vol. 2.

Flyer for PKN Wellington Vol. 13

Wellington is having its PechaKucha Night Vol. 13 this coming Sunday (March 4), and it’s going to be quite the special event, weather permitting. Here’s more info from organizer Craig Nicholson, and you’ll find the full list of presenters with links on the official event page.

It’s a special outdoor event as part of the annual Performance Arcade – which is a performance space consisting of a series of containers outside the National Museum Te Papa Tongarewa. We’re holding on to our hats (almost literally) as a weather ‘bomb’ is due to hit Wellington on Saturday (high winds and lashings of rain). Hopefully it will blow over by Sunday.

PKN Wellington Vol. 6

PechaKucha Night in Wellington Vol. 6 was held back in October, and here’s a look at some of the presenters who participated — there’s more to see in this Flickr photoset, and the full list of presenters appears on the official event page. The photos are courtesy of game designer James Everett, who gave a presentation here in Tokyo back in September on the making of the game Shatter, and looks to have shared a similar presentation in Wellington.
