Pech Kucha @ MCA

PechaKucha for Haiti
20 seconds, 20 images, 200 cities, 2000 presentations, 200,000 people - with the aim to raise $1,000,000 for rebuilding Haiti.
February 20th, location and presenters TBA, free / all donations go to Architecture for Humanity

THE 20th FEBRUARY

On Saturday 20 February PechaKucha events will be held all around the world. All the PechaKucha Night cities will be connected by a 24-hour PechaKucha presentation WAVE that will gradually move westward city by city, circumnavigating the globe. The wave will be dropping in on each city for around 10 minutes for a video link up and a live presentation. This presentation wave will be streamed over the internet on a 24-hour WAVEcast, which we think will be a world first.

THE WAVE

The PechaKucha Presentation WAVE will start simultaneously in SuperDeluxe in Tokyo where PechaKucha Night was first conceived, and in our most easterly city in New Zealand. It will then move west crossing all times zones and cultures. The PechaKucha WAVE will finally come ashore in San Francisco, where Architecture for Humanity (AFH) is headquartered. AFH's founder, Cameron Sinclair, will be there with the rest of San Francisco to give presentations and celebrate the successful circumnavigation of the world. That will be about 1pm Sunday Japan time. We plan to a have a big event in Tokyo, linking to San Francisco by video so we can all focus our thoughts on Haiti.

Workshop: Wed. Feb. 17th

New officer elections

At this Wednesday's weekly meeting we will be electing 2 new officers to replace the ones who graduated. We are electing for secretary and treasurer. If you are interested in running this semester come to the meeting prepared to give a short speech to your fellow students (2 minutes-ish). We will vote at the end of the meeting.

If you'd like to be involved but don't have the time to be an officer there will be plenty of volunteer opportunities this semester.
