Pecha Kucha Night - June 17, 2008


Pecha Kucha Night - June 17, 2008
Originally uploaded by 800ceoread

Home from my Atlanta/NY trip and went straight to the Hi Hat Garage for my Pecha Kucha presentation. Don't know what Pecha Kucha is, well you should check out their site, but basically it's a bunch of presenters who get to pick out 20 slides and then have 20 seconds to talk about each one. It's very fast paced and fun. I went last and was pretty nervous by the time my talk on "Craftivism & Community" rolled around.

The rest of the photos from the night are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/800ceoread/sets/72157605679906122/

Weekend/ Week updates

I was lucky enough to see two amazing bands this weekend- A Silver Mt. Zion at Turner Ballroom and The Spits and Franks Power Plant. I recommend checking out both if you can get a chance.

It was also the reception for the show I curated at Woodland Pattern called "Devotion To Thread" super great turnout and I'll have photos up on the Handmade Nation flickr account later this week.

If you are in Atlanta or NY I am on my way!
