Pecha Kucha Portsmouth/Circles for the Seasons

I am preparing to participate in Pecha Kucha Night in Portsmouth, NH tomorrow. It's called Sakura: A Night of Creative Awakening and donations will be collected to support the efforts of Architecture for Humanity in Sendai, Japan. The themes include rebirth, reawakening, and Japanese culture. I will be showing slides from Circles for the Seasons that celebrate spring.

I have been reading about these events for a few years and wanted to participate. I saw a poster about this event last week in Portsmouth. And now I am signed up and getting ready. It will be a challenge. Here's how it works: Each presenter shows twenty slides and has twenty seconds to talk about each. Here's the tricky part—the slides are automatically advanced so twenty seconds means twenty seconds. I have my images selected and sent and am at work on the talking part.

Check back Friday for a report. I'm looking forward to seeing and hearing all the presentations.
