But what I liked about the format was its limiting nature. It challenges the communicator to decerning what what images and sounds he or she is going to use and what is to be said during the presentations. It's also a good way to get almost 13 presentations into a single 90 minute high school block ;-) It's also worth noting that the author of the original <a href="http://www.wired.com/techbiz/media/magazine/15-09/st_pechakucha" rel="nofollow">WIRED Magaine piece</a> was Daniel Pink, author of <a href="http://danpink.com/excerptwnm.php" rel="nofollow">A Whole New Mind</a>.
