PechaKucha presentaions from great creatives

PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It has turned into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creatives worldwide. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. I loved the few I've seen in London but they've just relaunched their site so now you can enjoy them from the comfort of your home. Have a look at some of the inspiring presentations from the world’s best at www.pecha-kucha.org/

Curious ideas

Some beautiful pure art direction, photography and design. Great flash effects and an augmented reality section. The link came via a piece of DM courtesy of Royal Mail which was a nice change, and gave the client a chance to send a sample of their beautiful papers. The user experience is confusing and seems to have no direction or sense but in a way I suppose that's the idea. Go explore a new curious dimension. http://www.curiousstory.com/
