The New Sleekness

Last night was the second 7×20×21, which is a lecture series for the book world based on the presentation format Pecha Kucha. I hosted with Guy LeCharles Gonzalez, and we had a great lineup of presenters (including Pablo!). All the speakers from last night have their own sites, so this post is just to provide links to their blogs, websites, Twitter pages, etc. I’ll update as folks make their slideshows or speeches available online.

Thanks again to everyone who came out, the Bowery Poetry Club for the space, and Verso for their generous sponsorship. This was so much fun to do that we’ve already scheduled another for April 14th. Sign up here to receive more info.

Lineup from 1/14/10:

• Stephanie Anderson, manager of WORD Brooklyn, on the store’s very literary basketball league. Talk available as text or in full-length or edited video.
• Ryan Chapman, internet marketing manager at FSG. Slides are available here, edited video here.
• Pablo Defendini, web producer for Tor.com. Talk and slides available here.
• Joshua Simpson, Joshua Blake Photography (check out the ‘writers’ and ‘fantasy’ photos for a sense of his talk).
• Ward Sutton, Sutton Impact Studio. Video available at Galleycat.
• Debbie Stier, associate publisher at HarperStudio. Slides available here.
