Ignite capture l'essence de la culture - geek ou non - à travers des interventions pêchues de cinq minutes chacune, tel le "hacking du chocolat" à ...
Imaginez-vous sur scène, devant quelques centaines de personnes, à raconter quelque chose devant des images qui restent 15 secondes sur écran, défilant et se défilant. Que faire ? Que raconter ? Comment soutenir la pression ? Alors que les Pecha Kucha Nights Brussels sont conduites sur la transdisciplinarité, les Ignite Brussels - proposées et propulsées par Alok Nandi - permettent une approche thématique: au Vrak Festival, on s'intéressera à la jeune création dans les mondes numériques ...
Le concept est simple : chaque intervenant dispose de 5 minutes pour une présentation en 20 images. Chaque image reste sur écran pendant 15 secondes. Pas une de plus. Ni une de moins.
20 images x 15 secondes x 10 intervenants. Tempo. Histoires. Tension.

Ignite captures the best of culture - geek or not - in a series of five-minute speed presentations on topics ranging from Hacking Chocolate to ...
Imagine that you're on stage in front of an audience of hundreds of people, doing a five-minute presentation using a slide deck that auto-forwards every 15 seconds, whether you're ready or not. What would you do ? What would you say ? Could you stand the pressure ? Similar to Pecha Kucha Night dedicated to transdisciplinarity in Brussels, Ignite Brussels, launched by Alok Nandi, works on a thematic approach. The Ignite @ Vrak Festival looks at young creation in today's digital worlds.
The concept: each speaker has 5 minutes for a presentation in 20 images. Each image is on screen for only 15 seconds. No more, no less.
20 images x 15 seconds each x 10 speakers. Tempo. Story. Tension.

Ignite was started in Seattle in 2006 by Brady Forrest of O’Reilly Radar and Bre Pettis of Make. Since then hundreds of five minute talks have been given across the world. Besides Seattle, there are thriving Ignite communities in Portland, Sydney, NYC and a lot more. The idea is simple: presenters are required to stick to a rigid format of 20 slides, each of which changes automatically after 15 seconds, ensuring that each presentation is exactly 5 minutes long. The format forces presenters to think long and hard about every slide.
