Next Thursday night, the 27th, Naresh and I are holding another
PechaKucha Bangalore at Jaaga. This time the topic will be extremely
close to my heart: _Rediscovering Bangalore_. (Rediscovering any city
is close to my heart.)
There are a bunch of locals and Bangalorexperts on this list, and
wondering if anyone wanted to join on as a speaker. The rules are
standard PechaKucha: 20 slides, with 20 seconds per slide. That's 6
minutes and 40 seconds on topic.
(Ahem, does anyone know Uppi? And how to persuade him to join in to
talk about his sci-fi Bangalore vision for "Super"?)
PechaKucha Bangalore, Thursday, June 27th at 7pm, JAAGA, Double Road
_Rediscovering Bangalore_
Bangalore is huge, and with so many people, buildings, spaces and
projects, so many places, works and ideas are too little, too old or
too modest to be noticed. What do you know about Bangalore that
others do not know? Share your little secret; your project, blog,
vision, photographs or anything else that will make others rediscover
Bangalore at the Pecha Kucha event vol. 12. From history to future,
science-fiction to reality, big to small; each unexpected little thing
about Bangalore is worth sharing and is there to give us deeper
knowledge about our city.
