The annual intern event, hosted by the Intern Archietct Committee was held at the AIBC on November 6th. This year's event, 20x20, was based on Pecha Kucha - an increasingly popular show-and-tell format through which presenters are allowed 20 images and given up to 20 seconds per image to speak. This lively evening attracted 5 diverse presentations. It was an unqualified success!! We are particularly happy with the turn-out wich saw many interns attending the presentations and sharing fellowship, food, drink and good conversation. The 5 brave presenters each received gift cards in the amount of $100. Six lucky attendees won gift cards for various venues worth $50 as door prizes.The gifts and prizes were generously sponsored by the Architectural Foundation of British Columbia for which we are deeply grateful.
Following are the list of presenters and their respective topics.
- Allison Holden : Femininity in Architecture
- Ariane Truong : Floating Architecture
- Varouj Gumuchian & Gary Schilling : Eclectic Creativity
- May So : A Land Flowing with Milk: Rothiemay Farm, New Brunswick
- Abdel Munem Amin : Amazonas Brasilias : A tale of a broken Nomad
Considerable interest was expressed in repeating this event next year -- something the Intern Architect Committee is keen to do. For those who are interested in presenting a topic at the next intern event, please send an email to interncommittee@yahoo.com and a brief description of your topic.
