The BrickCon 2012 Presentation/Session/Activity schedule is being
finalized this weekend before the program goes to press, so if you'd like
to give a talk/moderate a roundtable/run an activity I need a title,
description, and requirements by September 15, this Saturday.
Also due this Saturday are Audio/Visual stuff associated with a
presentation (such as PowerPoint presentations, videos, or projected
images) which need to go to Nicole, our AV master. Contact me for her
e-mail.
Relatedly, the Virtual LEGO Room Tour, hosted by Carlyle Livingston, will
be returning to BrickCon this year.

Basically, this will be a roundtable where people bring pictures of their
Lego storage/build/sorting areas and do a show and tell. Since
those are projected images they will also need to be taken and sent to
Nicole by the end of Saturday.
BrickCon is an annual adult Lego fan convention and exhibition in Seattle
since 2002. BrickCon 2012 will be October 4, 5, 6, and 7 at the Seattle
Center Exhibition Hall and Northwest Rooms

The deadline to submit proposals for sessions at BrickCon 2011 is Wednesday,
September 7. Earlier submissions are better and more likely to be scheduled at
a preferred time (for example, not during the scheduled meal breaks 12-1 and
6-7:30 each day).
Sessions already scheduled include a LEGO Ambassador Q&A, a chat with LEGO
designer Pierre Normandin, drafts (sets 7346 and 4182), a film fest, a Dirty
Brickster, the Wacky Race and many more.
Past sessions that no one has yet expressed an interest in running this year
include the Landscaping Roundtable, the Virtual LEGO Room Tour, packaing MOCs,
and others.
If you would like to run a session at BrickCon this year please send a proposal
to Thomas Garrison as soon as possible. Include a title, a brief description
suitable for inclusion in the program, facilities requirements, and any schedule
limitations.
BrickCon is an annual convention and exhibition for adult fans of LEGO at the
Seattle Center in Seattle,Washington, the first weekend of October. BrickCon
2011 will be September 29--October 2. Registration is limited to 500, 272 of
whom have already registered.

I handled some of those cases Saturday. People were a little
confused, but not angry. I explained that the reporter misunderstood,
and had done the interview before we ever set up the display so he
didn't see it, and they were mollified.
