Another great opportunity to listen to entertaining presentations on a variety of topics, without worrying that any of the speakers will waffle on for too long, as the 6th edition of PechaKucha Night Bermuda will be on Thursday, February 20th. PechaKucha Nights were started in Japan and have a 20×20 presentation format where each speaker shows 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically and you talk along to the images. Since there is no pausing or going back, speakers have no choice but to keep to their allotted time. This will take place at Blue Water Anglers Club and speakers include Tommy Sinclair, Abbie Caldas, Aran McKittrick, Carla Marquardt, Ananda Hill, Gordon Johnson, Mhairi Flood, Becky Ausenda, Tiago Garcia, and Mike Davis. Following each presentation is a 3 minute 40 second Q&A session with the audience. Doors open at 6pm and presentations begin at 6.30pm. Admission is free and all are welcome. There will also be a fish fry during the event for $15 per plate. For more information, see their Facebook Page here.
