On last Friday night, I presented
the Percy Skuy contraceptive collection at Pecha Kucha Cleveland, an event for architects,
designers, artists, artisans, and many other creative folk, attended by 300+ at
the House of Blues. The invitation came
from Aseem Garg, CWRU grad student interning with my daughter Patty at the Cleveland Museum of
Art – he was sold after seeing my video from the Trojan Co., which aired in
February. We (12 presenters) each shared
20 slides, limited to just 20 seconds of commentary. If and when the Pecha Kucha video is
available, I'll share. Best thing about the evening was sharing it with Patty and
Ted, and then having several appreciative 20-somethings say "Man, you really
nailed it!" -- and, I got to go first, so I could enjoy the rest of the evening's
events. What
a great load of super creative Clevelanders! Gives one ample hope for the city’s future.
And connecting the Dittrick to a younger audience is priceless.
