About Con-volution 2015
Genres
Convolution is an annual 3-day science fiction, fantasy, and media convention featuring guests, performers and vendors from a wide spectrum of the speculative fiction industry and community. Each year’s event is presented within the framework of a different central theme from which most of its programming items evolve.
Convolution 2015’s theme, LEGION, will focus on the phenomenon of Fandom itself. It represents a warm welcome and celebration of fans and the genres they enjoy, and serves as a reminder that we are everywhere, that we come from all walks of life. Literature, comics, film, animation, gaming, performing arts, etc. – everything from ancient myth to children’s cartoons will be on the table.
We’ll dig up the worldwide roots of fandom and speculative fiction, confront modern depictions of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and physical form and ability in both speculative fiction and overall Geek Culture, and just plain enjoy each other’s company as we share the fandoms we love.
