A little while ago a group of us, spurred on by Tim, started up the young architects committee at the RAIA. The Institute currently has a noticeable lack of recently graduated youth in its ranks and it is our agenda to change that. I am not sure how we will do this but we have called ourselves DARCH and we are going to start with the humble ol’ slide night.

It will be at Tusculum and named 10×10x10, it will be a rapid fire slide night. 10 presenters will each present 10 slides each with a maximum of 10 seconds per slide with drinks before, during and after. If you know how to do complex maths, like I do, you will have already figured out that there is a much higher ratio of drinking and talking time to politely watching slide time. I will put up a list of the 10 folk doing the powerpoint thing closer to the date, when we have them all confirmed.

Below is our suitably grim/We-Are-The-Business invite:

It is on the 21st of July so if you are:

• a) Sydney. Or Australia for that matter…
• b) Hardcore
• c) A youngish architect
• d) Whatever

Then come along. It should be fun.
