The PechaKucha will be Thursday evening, 9:30 - 11pm in the Olivia Room. Bar availability is TBD. Ten presenters are signed up so far (thanks!!) and still room for a couple more. Hope to see you there!

Should have mentioned this yesterday: we’re a bit under critical mass to hold a pechakucha in Singapore. If you are on the fence, be brave and step up. It’s fun and you’ll get as friendly a reception as possible at an IETF (although this is not an IETF event).

Thinking about doing a PechaKucha in the past and never had time. NOW IS THE TIME!
Come share your favorite stories, rants, or calls to action with your colleagues at IETF-100. If you have a topic about which you are passionate, you can give a PechaKucha. (Here are two of my personal favorites by Pete and Brian, although there are many other excellent examples.)
What is a PechaKucha, you ask? A PechaKucha is a lightning-talk presentation format, originating in Japan, where a speaker presents 20 image-only slides that are each on the screen for 20 seconds and advance automatically. With each talk lasting for 6:40, it has the feature of forcing presentations -- good or bad -- to be focused and brief.
This is an unofficial event. Topics are encouraged to be a IETF-related and satirical or controversial in some way, although not mean-spirited. Anyone can participate in this social event.
Video from the Berlin, Seoul, Chicago, and Prague PKs can be found here.
Format Details:
- Presentation slots are open to all, assigned first come, first served.
- To reserve a presentation slot, send a name and title to aaron.falk@xxxxxxxxx and receive confirmation.
- Presenters must agree to adhere to the Pecha Kucha format (20 slides, primarily image-only, automatically advancing every 20 seconds).
- There are lots of online tutorials and suggestions for how to make a good PechaKucha. Here are a few: [1], [2], [3].
