Hey there, folks! I'd like to ask all those who are attending Lojban Festival at Penguicon (in 27 days) to think about what preparation you can do in those 27 days to contribute to the fun.
Currently the highlights are a panel discussion about Lojban, and an hour during which only Lojban may be spoken in that room. After a certain time of the evening, there will be no more sessions in that room, and it will be available exclusively for Lojbanists. I have been offered a complete audiovisual recording kit, including camera, microphones, sound mixer, a Twinpact for recording from a laptop screen, and a digital capture laptop running Debian with software for switching between feeds during recording. What about more? Can someone make a set of la cibyska cards? Does someone have a Nanofictionary set they can bring? Do we want to do something foodlike together? Does anyone want to man a Lojban promotional exhibit? Can someone bring banners? At the last Lojban Festival, there was a mural of signatures and Lojbanic writing which is on a paper roll-- is someone bringing that? Can someone bring more paper to expand the roll? Would anyone be willing to translate the subtitles of "Call of Cthulhu" into Lojban so we can show that? Is there anything I can do for you as Conchair of Penguicon? I'm incredibly busy, but I can try. -Eppcott
