Reesa and I will be presenting at Arse Elektronika 2008 (http://www.monochrom.at/arse-elektronika/), a conference on sexuality and technology that takes place in San Francisco this September. This year’s theme is “Do Androids Sleep with Electric Sheep?” and deals with the influence of science fiction (and “social fiction”) on technology and the future. Our paper, “What is the 21st century novel?” will be part of the conference’s Narration track. Not only will we be talking about the history of and (our ideas about) the future of storytelling, but we hope to reveal details of an upcoming Dream Café collaborative project as well.
I attended last year’s Arse Elektronika and had a great time; you can read my notes here (http://todfox.livejournal.com/tag/arse+elektronika).
In other news, Reesa & I will also be attending the upcoming Burning Flipside (http://www.burningflipside.com/) 2008. We’re returning with our chill camp, Eposia’s Crosstime Saloon. Our address this year is 8 Naughty Avenue. If you happen to be a reader who attends, be sure and stop by to say hi.
