WisCONline schedule
May. 19th, 2020 05:27 pmSomehow, despite the small number of panels this year, I've ended up on TWO of them, which blows my mind a little. Nope, no pressure at all.
Saturday, 2pm CT: Appreciating The Good Place. "All four seasons of The Good Place are now complete. How has this half hour of moral philosophy, crazy puns, musings on the afterlife and personal growth, fabulous diverse characters, and overall kindness changed you? Share the love!"
Sunday, 4pm CT: City as History/City as Liberator. "Cities have long served as both the nexus of existing power structures and a space where they can be transformed. SF writers from George Orwell to Samuel Delaney to Charlie Jane Anders have imagined how physical and social architecture interact to create spaces for both oppression and liberation. How does fiction inform how we envision our cities? How do recent subway protests in Chile and NYC assert the right to public space? How can we work in our own cities to support that right?"![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
forestofglory is also on this panel!
My understanding is that the panels will be available to watch through at last the end of the con, but you need to be registered. The registration deadline is tomorrow!
This is normally when I'd ask you to let me know if you're coming and would like to meet up, but. Well. That said, I expect to be online and around throughout most of the weekend, starting on Thursday evening after I finish up work for the week (probably around 5pm Pacific). So if anyone wants to find a specific time to connect, let me know!
