I’ve been dropping hints about a couple of upcoming forays overseas; a few of you in the comments have taken the bait. So now, for those who haven’t noticed the new entries over on the sidebar, I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be a guest at Bulgacon later this month, over in (you guessed it) Bulgaria. I haven’t been to that country in person since my Ratio appearances back in 2017<\/a> and 2020<\/a>, and those were both in Sofia. This time the location is\u2014don’t know if I’m pronouncing this right\u2014Plovdiv. A new place to explore, although I probably won’t have much time; they tell me I’m slotted for eight events.<\/p>\n

Moving on to November, I’ll be in Madrid (assuming Madrid isn’t on fire then; these days, you never know). This isn’t a con but a conference: a five-day riff on the subject of “Synthetic Minds<\/a>” hosted by Matadero Medialab<\/a>. They’re still taking proposals for things they’re referring to as “Lab Projects”<\/a>; anyone out there interested in presenting has until September 17 to submit a proposal. One thing that appears to be nailed down is that I’m going to be delivering a keynote address. I’m glad we’ve got that settled.<\/p>\n

Now I’ve just got to figure out what the fuck I’m gonna talk about. And then write the damn thing. I make no promises.<\/p>\n

But at the very least, these Medialab people have got a kick-ass graphic designer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
