If you are unfamiliar with Pecha Kucha Night (means "chit-chat" in Japanese), it was started in 2003 by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham as a forum for young designers and creatives to come together and discuss their work or anything else they are interested in presenting. Each presenter is allowed 20 images displayed for 20 seconds (for a total of 6m40s) in order to give everyone an equal chance to speak and to keep things interesting. Pecha Kucha Night takes place currently in 138 cities around the world and the list is growing.

If you are in Denver/Boulder are or anywhere in decent proximity, check out the Denver Pecha Kucha Night on Monday, September 29th, 2008.

LaN @ Montana State University School of Architecture 
Live Architecture Network was invited to teach MSU School of Architecture's Visiting Scholar Studio. This studio allows graduate students to expand on their knowledge with tutors from outside the regular faculty. LaN directors will each visit Bozeman, MT for two weeks. Luis Fraguada is currently in Bozeman getting the students acquainted with the Grasshopper environment in Rhino. To follow the studio, please visit LaN @ MSUSOA: Visiting Scholar Studio

The brief for the studio is Extreme Environments: WIND. The studio was given a series of sites that have naturally windy conditions throughout the year. In order to instrumentalize the information pertinent to each site, the first task is to design a device to measure the wind and other climactic conditions.



Project development by Michael Somerfeld, Nathan French, and Ron Shvartsman. Wind Harp for McMurdo Station in Antartica.



Project development by Andrew Brandt and Shawn Gould. Instrument for Lanzarote, Spain.
