And More Boskone
Since the rest of my friends are posting their schedules for the upcoming awesomeness that is Boskone:
Rising Tides, Friday 18:00 - 18:50. FEMA is releasing floodplain data soon. Interestingly, looks like most of Boston will be underwater if climate change continues. This presents some splashy possibilities for scientists and authors writing in the "near future" space. Vincent Docherty (M), Tom Easton, Gary Ehrlich, Joan Slonczewski.
Concert: McGath/Ehrlich, Saturday 12:00 - 12:50. Double the Garys! Double the fun!
Fantasy and the Sea Chantey, Saturday 17:00 - 17:50. Songs of the sea have long included the stuff of fantasy: ghosts, mermaids, and other creatures of the "vasty deep." Share discussions and performances of some of these nearly forgotten gems of the ocean. Edie Stern, Gary Ehrlich, Jordin T. Kare, Faye Ringel.
So You Want to Run a Filk Convention?, Saturday 19:00 - 19:50. As with any other type of fannish activity, a filk convention has its own ins and outs. What are things that you need to look for? What special considerations are there? Ellen Kranzer (M), Merav Hoffman, Gary Ehrlich.
As I've noted a few other places, I'm not exactly sure when I'm going to eat! (Well, except for a nice Valentine's dinner at Salvatore's, which I've made a reservation for.) Other than that, it should be a blast!
