ANOMACON 2023 Coming this Weekend

Got no plans for the weekend?

How about you order a pizza, pour a glass of your favorite beverage, and enjoy 2 days of video presentations delivered by some of the most interesting thinkers in the paranormal scene from all over the world?

Best part of it —it’s totally free!

Anomacon is the brainchild (or maybe brainfart?) of author/podcaster Ryan Sprague and Rob Kristoffersen, host of the Our Strange Skies podcast. They reached out to a bunch of their ‘parafriends’ online —including yours truly— and asked them to develop video presentations which will be streamed on both YouTube and Twitter. A live chat will be hosted during the event and hopefully that way viewers will be able to interact with each other as well as with the speakers.

Here’s the lineup and order of the presentations for Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd:

As you can see, the list is a good mix of ‘heavy hitters’ and folks who might be relatively unknown but nonetheless have many interesting things to share with the audience. I also like the fact that Anomacon will feature speakers from outside the United States, and also that the male/female ratio is well balanced.

As for my little presentation —well, actually it’s not that little— I prepared a video explaining the genesis of the UFOlogy Tarot project, along with some ‘behind the scenes’ stuff that hopefully will give the audience a better handle of how the cards came to be (think of it as a sort of “director’s commentary” like the ones they used to include in DVDs).

Like I already said, the video is a bit long, but I tried to compensate it by sprinkling it with A LOT of images; not just enlarged details of the cards that you wouldn’t be able to detect unless you purchased a large 11×17″ print or the coffee table book we printed, but also quick doodles I felt compelled to create to illustrate some of the ideas I talk about in my presentation. Like this one for example:

An alien snooping on a ghost snooping on Bigfoot who’s snooping on the two of them? Now what in the heck would this be about??

…Well, you’ll just have to check it out for yourselves this Friday 😉
