The cityhomeCOLLECTIVE team has been invited to speak at PechaKucha, Vol. 6!

PechaKucha Night is an inspiring gathering of minds that was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. Our fearless leader (Cody) will have 6 minutes -- in a concise '20 images x 20 seconds' format -- to school on the importance of space and the impact our surroundings can have on our happiness, inspiration and well-being. Several other talents (see below) will take the 6-minute stage, as well, and we're excited to hear the words of wisdom.  Come...be inspired this Saturday, October 29, at the Avocet Building.

Check out the event page here to get the details.  Presenters start @ 7:00pm, so you'll have plenty of time to hit your Halloween parties. Costumes are optional, but feel free to test yours out in a room full of creative people. Drinks will be served. Seating is limited, so reserve your free tickets now. http://pechakuchaslc.eventbrite.com/

Kathryn Ecsedy and her colleagues, in a blend of science and art have conducted research into the world of MEMS (Micro Electrical Mechanical Systems), exploring how to build and power these tiny devices. With an emphasis on creative and artistic engineering they have sought to test the boundaries of possibility for this emerging technology. Many of the devices she'll show will illustrate the exciting new technique of energizing on such a small scale, micro-charge pumped actuation, invented right here in Utah by Dr. Ian Harvey. http://www.nanofab.utah.edu/

Brad Slaugh is an accomplished artist, professor, and the director of Poor Yorick Studios-an artist studio complex that he created and manages in South Salt Lake.  Brad says that he works in several ways-all of them representational but not strictly realist, with an emphasis on immediate response and tactile exploration of form and color. http://bradslaugh.com/home.html
