PechaKucha Bermuda

passion, ideas, community The solution: Give them a format and a chance to talk about their current interests and listen to others doing the same.
At a time when email, Facebook and Twitter seemingly reduce the need for face-to-face encounters, a PechaKucha Night forces us out of the house/office and into a social space for stimulation and interaction. It involves a variety of visual artists presenting their out-of-the-box creative ideas on any topic of their choice for everyone to enjoy, think about, laugh at and, maybe, be inspired by. PKNs were started by a pair of Tokyo-based architects who tackled this problem: How do you get a bunch of visual visionaries — many of them isolated, introverted, self-employed people who tend to hunch all day behind their computers — out into meet space, communicating, drinking, networking? The format is called a “20x20” where 20 images are projected on a screen, each for 20 seconds, while a presenter talks along with the images. The presentation is automated, so there is no “Can you go back one?” or “Next slide, please”; it is concise and rapid. PechaKucha Night Bermuda is organised by Hannah Collins, Alba Fernandez, John Adcock, Najib Chentouf and Stratton Hatfield. If you are interested in being a presenter, leave a message for us here on Facebook or contact us at [email protected]. There will be at least four PKN's a year. PKN Bermuda was founded by Nicky Gurret and Aideen Ratteray Pryse.

Introducing our next presenter for PechaKucha Night Bermuda - Volume 38: Jae Johnston!
Jae Johnston is a Bermudian with a passion for music and nature. If she is not jamming on her guitar in her room, she can be found somewhere by the sea, meditating on the age-old questions that we all think of from time to time regarding the meaning of life.
Jae’s PechaKucha presentation, “Rebuilding Belief,” explores her personal journey regarding spirituality as someone who is part of the LGBT+ community.
What does it mean when you are told that you are fearfully and wonderfully made, yet at the same time an abomination?
How do you reconcile your own experiences and faith with the opinions of other people and the injustices present in the world?
While Jae does not claim to have the one true answer for every person, she believes it is important to explore and question if your religion is lifting you up or tearing you down.
Join us for an evening of short, dynamic, diverse presentations.

Heather's PechaKucha presentation, “Why I Fly & What It Taught Me,” explores the passion, precision and responsibility behind life in the sky.
Flying looks like pure fun. What most people see are clear skies, new destinations and an amazing view or vantage point. But what most people do not see is the dedication, precision, and continuous learning required to do it safely and well.
In this talk, Heather shares what training to be a pilot taught her about discipline, responsibility, and why the work behind the passion is what makes it all worthwhile.

PechaKucha Night Bermuda - Volume 38 is on Friday, and we are kicking off our presenter line-up with Faraz Pourreza-Jorshari!
Meet Faraz Pourreza-Jorshari, a local dentist currently completing a Masters in Endodontics, also known as root canals. Faraz combines more than a decade of clinical experience with his degree in Human Behavioural Sciences to help treat anxious patients with dental phobia.
His PechaKucha presentation, “Pulp Fiction: The Curious Power of Dental Stories,” explores one of the most feared medical procedures in the world: root canal therapy. Together with the age of social media misinformation, dental myths have strengthened and encouraged patients to make ill-informed decisions about their health.
Faraz will explore and debunk some of the most common dental myths, while also helping us understand how falsehoods can reveal something very true about the human condition.
Join us for an evening of short, dynamic, diverse conversations.
