Continuing the Discussion
[...] On Thursday, Matthew will be presenting at Edmonton’s NextGen’s Pecha Kucha night. He will be speaking about how books and stories play a significant role in shaping one’s ideas. Matthew is no stranger to the concept of Pecha Kucha, after helping to create a presentation last year as part of an internship at The Localize Project. After attending NextGen’s March Pecha Kucha event and keeping connected with NextGen news, Matthew decided to apply to present his work. A couple months later, he is well-rehearsed, has his cue cards in order, and is “only slightly nervous” about his presentation this week. To hear Matthew’s presentation, check out Edmonton’s NextGen’s Pecha Kucha Night Sweet 16, Thursday June 13, 2013.
