So, while I love to travel and I abhor conventional behavior for conformity’s sake, I never really went through a pirate phase. Just never really liked the idea of people who take stuff that doesn’t belong to them, as a way of life. Pirates basically have stealing, not as something they did once or even […]
Yay! We’ve got a whole bunch of potential T-shirt designs ready to go. BLT‘s wonderful kind backers will be the ones to decide which ones we actually produce. The plan is to make a minimum of 3 of these designs, although I kind of want them all, now that I am looking at them. Old […]
This weekend saw the launch of my Kickstarter project BLT Punk Humor Book 25 Year Black Leather Times Zine Omnibus. BLT was the first zine I did as an . . . well, I hesitate to say it, but as an adult. It is one of the creative projects I am the proudest of working […]
Blue Blood exhibited at Convergence this past weekend. Convergence is a convention of net goths which has been going on since gothic folks first found usenet. Each year, people vote on what city to have the con in. This was Convergence 21. It was themed Hollywood Dead Stars and it was held in Los Angeles, […]
I like Kyle Cassidy‘s work because he has a good eye for subculture. There is a journalistic aspect to his work, combined with an aesthetically pleasing approach. Kyle Cassidy delves into the social anthropology of cultural aspects which go unexplored by most. I think I first came across him on LiveJournal. (Raise your hand if […]
Every year, I promise myself I am going to get to a zillion conventions. I loooooooooove tradeshows. I have not been getting my full fix since the economy tanked, but I swear I am going to London Edge in 2015. This year, the show takes place February 2 to 4. If any of you all […]
Justin Page at Laughing Squid alerted me to the vital con signage supplied by Susanna Wolff and Caldwell Tanner over at College Humor.
This past weekend, I had the pleasure of attending the last day of Bent-Con. The slogan I heard bandied about was “Like Comic-Con . . . Only Gayer”, although, on the Bent-Con site, it says, “A Comic Convention . . . Only Gayer”. Either way, very inspired sloganeering. I could only make it for one […]
I was very active in East Coast fandom from the time I was very underage (but old enough to get into mischief), until I moved to California. It was a lot of fun. I tended to spell shirt L-I-N-G-E-R-I-E and regularly get in trouble with con security over my (lack of) attire and non-peacebonded weapons. […]
It is no secret that I love trade shows. Doesn’t matter whether I am actually particularly working in a specific industry, I just enjoy the sense of productivity and expertise and people trying to do whatever they do well. I like tools a lot. (Tools as in instruments to accomplish things, not guys who order […]
