PKC WEB HAS MOVED

Folks, update your bookmarks/browsing habits, as we've moved to the slightly bigger, much better www.pechakuchacanberra.com

The new site has all the news and information you need on Pecha Kucha Nights in Canberra, an extensive resources list, submission guidelines, and access to past presenters. Why not head on over?

VOLUME 02 IS COMING

The Pecha Kucha Canberra Team would like to wish all the best of the season, and pass on this crucial information; SUBMISSIONS FOR VOLUME 2 ARE NOW OPEN! We’re getting set to bring in the New Year with another PK Night (the first of at least 4 in 2008), which will take place in February. So, as you relax over the holiday break, do take some time to consider an application for our second installment.

Submissions for PKC 02 are open till the 18th of January. Mail a brief bio and 3-5 lo res images of what you would present to pechakuchacanberra@gmail.com

UPDATES

We're in the process of building a bigger better PKC site, but bare with us- this web design caper is a little taxing for folk who normally deal in the built/printed design world...

Photos from the night are being hosted on our Flickr site- you can click that rotating widget just to the right there, or click here.

DONE!

Our house DJ for PKC Vol. 01 is none other than Canberra favourite Shunji. Well-known for his fluid eclectic deck work, we’re most pleased to have him spinning pre and post PKC. With thanks to Knightsbridge, and Shunji himself; check his profile here.

Also, many thanks to our latest sponsor Aesop, who are providing gift kits to all our speakers. Cheers Aesop!
