After a bit of confusion (as opposed to ConFusion), I have indeed been confirmed for both PenguiCon (next weekend in Pontiac, MI) and Up In The Aether Con (Memorial Day weekend in Dearborn, MI).

The PenguiCon concert should be interesting. I'm not getting a ballroom -- I'm getting a lounge. As Tim, head of programming, describes it, it's "a very comfy lounge adjacent to the Hotel restaurant... a very intimate setting for a performance". Sounds great, actually. We'll have us a Silly Like Sardines ol' time!

Other musical guests include our buddy Devo Spice, Wax Chaotic, Nikola Lazar Whallon, and GOHs Inverse Phase. They all have concerts in the evening, so it should be a hell of a good loud night.

And the other guests aren't slouches either, including well-deserving Author GOH and most excellent buddy Jim C. Hines!

And as to Up In The Aether Con...? Just go to their web site and mouse over Programming. They've got an astonishing bunch of stuff, including Voltaire. (I'm not on the web site yet, but I promise I'll be singing at the con.)

So. Who's interested in going, or already planning to go, or what else are you doing those weekends...?

Sintel

Open-source is way cool. Here's a project you may not have heard of: Sintel, a fifteen-minute CGI fantasy film. Impressive stuff, ose as hell, and available for free download... or in a 4-DVD set which includes both NTSC and PAL disks and a 2-disk DVD-ROM set, complete with all necessary data, showing you how to recreate the film for yourself. (If you just want to watch it, click here.)

What new open-source or online film projects have caught your eye?
