Hey kids, I wanted to share with you a convention that I am slated to be a guest/panelist/presenter at. It's called Otaku Brain Trust and it's an academic focused, panels-only convention, slated for next February in Leesburg Virginia, which is just a bit north-west of the DC region.
They are trying to fund the convention through Kickstarter, and before you dismiss it saying "I don't live anywhere near there", the plan is to make all of the panels available via transcripts and video, so if there's something that interests you, you can always view it online down the road, but only if the convention is funded, of course.
So please take a look, I've had a fairly extensive conversation with Brent Newhall, the principal organizer, and it sounds like they've got a good plan put together, they just need the funding to realize it.
