Trinoc*coN a local Speculative Fiction Conference (www.trinoc-con.org) is looking for an Internet professional or two to be part of a panel discussion on the Future of the Internet with several science fiction authors, including Vernor Vinge (True Names, FIre Upon the Deep). The discussion is scheduled for Sunday, October 7 from 12-1 at the Millennium Hotel, Durham, where the Conference is taking place.

What You Would Do

Sit at a table in front of an audience with Vinge and several other authors and speculate/debate the Future of the Internet. The discussion will be moderated and audience members will have a chance to ask questions. Being able to project an attitude of thoughtful consideration is helpful, but not required. :-)

What You Get

A free pass to the whole of Trinoc*coN (Oct. 5-7): a chance to meet and drink with your favorite science fiction/fantasy/horror writers and some excellent artists, lots of discussions about the past, future and current state of speculative fiction, a late-night dance on Saturday, tons of SF and fantasy flavored gaming (RPGs, CCGs, miniatures and possibly even computer gaming on a LAN) and a bunch of other events.


If you are interested and available, please reply to me off-list.

Thanks,

Paul Cory
