PK Melbourne - What is light?

We had a fantastic night on Thursday at Pecha Kucha Melbourne.  Our very own Dave Anderson and top North Fitzroy architect Antony Di Mase came together to curate a special Pecha Kucha all about light with the proceeds going to earthquake relief in Christchurch, Japan and Haiti.

Dave and Antony asked the 11 speakers a simple question: what is light? The diversity of responses was fantastic and the presentations were mostly very interesting with not one being the same as another.  Stand-outs for me were lighting designers Nicola Andrews and David Becker (with his tardis) and photographer Matt Irwin (who overcame a technical problem of no sound at the end of his slides and ad-libbed to great effect). At one point I thought he was about to break into an interpretive dance.

These sort of events take an enormous amount of effort to organise and it was evident that a lot of thought and hard work had gone into making the night the roaring success that it was.  Well done Dave and Antony as well as the crew from PK.
