hear ye, hear ye, local burners: I have a proposition for you.

I recently instigated Pecha Kucha in Providence. [if you have zero clue what Pecha Kucha is, it's a monthly format for sharing ideas, in which presenters are allotted 20 PowerPoint slides and 20 seconds per slide. Put simply: 6 minutes and 40 seconds of PowerPoint performance art. Presenters from all domains of creative activity are welcome - activists, animators, arbiters, architects, artists, chefs, coolhunters, critics, curators, designers, dreamers, entrepreneurs, fabricators, fashionistas, historians, makers, rabblerousers, scientists... - but the experience should be primarily visual. Pecha Kucha began in Tokyo in 2003, has since spread to 166 cities worldwide, and now it landed in Providence.]

so I'd Love to do a presentation about burning man, but instead of one person with 20 slides, I wanna do 20 people with one slide each. in other words, it would be a 20-person presentation, in which each of us gets 1 slide (20 seconds) with which to illustrate what burning man is, means, share a memory, describe an experience... the next Pecha Kucha is on Wednesday, May 13th at Bravo in Providence (www.pecha-kucha.org/cities/p...dence/3). I already have 13 burners, so I just need 7 more.

***are you down to be one of those lucky 7?***
