Transformal!

[epershand]

Welcome to Transformal. This community started out as a Monday lunch at the end of WisCon. We love online fandom, we love offline conventions, and we would love there to be more content at the cons we love about the things we love, like transformative works and fannish meta.

We also love finding one another at conventions. So here is a community to do that--tell each other what cons we're at, find one another, and plot programming that appeals to our interests.

PS. This is the version that I am actually posting to the community, not accidentally to my own journal. ::facepalm::

I'm here! *waves*

Can I get a clarification? Is this for fannish events only? Is it mostly about non-transformational events?

Errr, let me clarify.

Transformational fandom events = slash conventions, vidding conventions, etc., eg. Escapade, Vividcon, Muskrat Jamboree, Bitchin' Party

Other fandom events = SF conventions, anime conventions, comic conventions, etc., eg. Worldcon, Wiscon, Comicon, Dragoncon, Arisia

Non-fandom events = tech conferences, professional conferences, political events, public celebrations, etc., eg. OSCON, San Francisco Dyke March, internet censorship protest

Are all these on topic for this comm?

All these are on topic. I suspect that it's mostly going to start out with mostly fannish events, of both the transformational and non-transformational variety.
