style="font-family: "Avenir 55 Roman";">First devised by a pair of
Tokyo architects in 2003,
PechaKucha Nights have become international phenomena that use a simple
concept
to create big community exchanges. Presenters have 20 images and 20
seconds per
image to share their ideas, works, and passions for a total of 6
minutes and 40
seconds flat.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span
style="font-family: "Avenir 55 Roman";">The July 30 event will be the
fourth PechaKucha Night hosted
by the Champaign-Urbana Design Organization (CUDO), and this first
collaboration between CUDO and Krannert Center for the Performing Arts
will
offer exciting new elements to the offbeat format that include free
admission
and an outdoor venue. The west terrace of the Center will be
re-imagined as a
outdoor club with DJ Mertz spinning in the Amphitheatre beginning at
7pm and an
outdoor bar serving up beer specials throughout the night. Presenters
will light
up the building facade with their images, and plenty of seating will be
added
to accommodate a large crowd.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-family: Avenir-Roman;">Topics and perspectives vary
widely,
but the high energy and diverse creativity have undeniable appeal to
all.
