No Pecha-Kucha-mos en Barcelona?
Pecha Kucha, which is Japanese for the sound of conversation, is a web-based platform that allows to organise events off-line.
It is a way to bring together young architects and designers and gives them 20 pictures, 20 seconds each of them to present their ideas, projects, dreams to an audience. The system is self-organizing; everybody can set up a Pacha Kucha Night in his/her town. There were / will be events in Madrid, Tokyo, Ljubljana, LA, Delhi, Austin, Lima, Linz, Bern, Groningen, Hamburg, Oslo, Belfast, etc etc…..
BUT nobody has taken initiative in Barcelona so far? Isn’t that weird in a “creative” place like Barcelona with tons of desingers and architects?

I know of several institutions/companies/groups of people who’ve proposed to take Pecha Kucha Night in Barcelona (the first one 2 years a go) but they’ve always been turned down by the founders (Astrid and Mark) arguing they are considering other organizers in Barcelona.
Maybe they have some kind of problem with the city? Because this doesn’t make any sense either to me. I mean come on… PKN in Udine but not in Barcelona? I think they will soon have to explain what’s happening here.
