  • PauseTalk in May

    I purposely didn’t announce when the next PauseTalk (Vol. 40) was happening because I wasn’t sure what to do about the Golden Week holiday, but for now I’m circling May 10 as the date, which would be the Monday following the week-long holiday. Also, I’ve decided to scratch plans for a big celebration party —…

  • PauseTalk Vol. 39

    Thanks to everyone who made it out despite the awful weather to last night’s PauseTalk Vol. 39. We ended up with a nice group of around 20, and got to cover a few interesting topics, including, yes, some talk on the iPad — but also previews of Hawken King’s upcoming Facemakr app, and a chance…

  • PauseTalk Tonight

    It’s PauseTalk tonight (Vol. 39) at Cafe Pause, with the usual start time of 20:00 — the cafe is reserved from 19:30, so feel free to come early. Expect excitement, adventure, and more!

  • Next PauseTalk (Vol. 39)

    April’s PauseTalk is just around the corner, with Vol. 39 set to happen this coming Monday (April 5) at Cafe Pause, with the usual start time of 20:00 — the cafe is reserved from 19:30, so feel free do drop by a bit early. You can let me know you’re coming on the Facebook event…

    Just a reminder that tonight (March 8) is this month’s edition of PauseTalk (Vol. 38) at Cafe Pause, with a start time of 20:00. As always, the cafe is reserved from 19:30, so feel free to show up a bit early. Have been suffering through a cold this past weekend and still have a bit…

  • PechaKucha Control Center

    Here I am, acting all serious and shit at the “control center” this past Saturday for the big “Global PechaKucha Night for Haiti” — in the foreground you see the back of the head of Mark Dytham, and my PechaKucha colleague Tomoko. The photo is courtesy of Arvin Panwar — more photos from that night…

  • PechaKucha for Haiti

    Just a note to let everyone know about the global “PechaKucha for Haiti” event happening today. You’ll be able to watch a live stream of the entire thing from the front page of the PechaKucha website. There are also local events happening around the world — the Tokyo one is at SuperDeluxe, doors open at…

  • PauseTalk in March

    Oh, don’t you just love these PauseTalk updates? So after having to cancel this month’s edition I said that it would be back in March, but unfortunately, again, it won’t happen on the first Monday (which would be March 1) because it looks like I’ll be in China at the end of this month and…

  • No PauseTalk in February

    I’m afraid I have some bad news for PauseTalk in February. I was planning on having it happen on the 8 (because I’m currently in Kyoto and will only be back tomorrow night), but just found out from the manager at Cafe Pause that there’s an event booked there, so no go. Since I don’t…

  • PauseTalk Vol. 37 Participants

    A big thanks again to everyone who made it to this past Monday’s PauseTalk Vol. 37 — I think we were about 20 or so, which made for a nice tight conversation. Most of the night’s talk ended up revolving around photography — kept us going until past 21:30 — kicked off by Martin Holtkamp…
