From the South exit of Kichijoji Station (sometimes called "Park Exit"), turn right and walk past Macdonalds down a street with many restaurants on it for 2 minutes. You'll reach an intersection with the main road ("Inokashira dori") and on the other side you'll see a tall skinny building with a ramen shop on the ground floor, next to a large eyewear store. Pico Pico Cafe / Lexaloffle is on the 8th floor.
Picotachi is a monthly show-and-tell event held at Pico Pico Cafe in Kichijoji, inviting creators to tell stories about what they are working on. The format is very casual: 2~10 minutes with a projector for each presenter, around 4~8 presentations per Picotachi, with time before and after to hang out. Tiny and unfinished projects are welcome, and any language is ok (especially if there are pictures to look at). Many presentations are about game design and visual arts, but others have covered things like audio design, music composition, map making, robotics and AI, demoscene and textiles.
To find out when the next Picotachi is, please check our twitter account or #picotachi. If you would like to show something, please email us at picopicocafe@gmail.com with a brief description (and maybe a screenshot). If you'd like to run any software or slides, please bring a laptop. Alternatively, we can provide you with a web browser if you have something online. (For slideshows, @polm23 uses: tmcw-big.js)
