Musecon Is Coming

Musecon will be formally announced this weekend at Capricon. Some Chicago-area science fiction fans are organizing a new kind of convention for "artists, musicians, inventors, gadgeteers, makers, tinkerers, and other creative people."

If you're at Capricon, check out the Musecon party to learn more. If you're not, visit the Musecon site at http://www.musecon.org/.

It looks like a swell time

There is a good chance it will conflict with the national model rocket contest(NARAM). But if it doesn't, I'll likely attend.

So - out of curiosity, who are the folks spearheading this effort?

Sadly, though, it's the same weekend as the NASFiC. Which I'm working for, since it's local and all.

Chicago NW. Sigh. I understand this would be a bad idea in many ways, but I sure wish Chi-town cons could be SE and not always NW.

Looks good, Bill! I might just have to come out for it. Need an auctioneer?

Hmmm, 4-1/2 miles from O'Hare, far enough out that I could legally demonstrate my UAV...

Hmm...If it doesn't clash with NARAM (or concievably even if it does) this sounds like a hoot.

Someone from musecon gave my wife their phone number and asked me to get in touch with them for some reason this weekend. I, of course, promptly lost the piece of paper with that information. If that someone is reading your comments, perhaps they will tag me here so I can reach them...

So what do you envision for Visual Arts?

As a photographer, my work often doesn't fit into to the typical Art Show theme...

Cheers!
