Festivalen startar kl. 17.00 på fredagen och slutar 17.00 på söndagen. Vi vill göra den här festivalen till ett speciellt, kanske unikt, tillfälle att kombinera teknik, historia, gör det själv-, pyssel- och hantverkskultur, och fantastikens möjligheter att tänja på gränserna för det vi är vana vid.
Men framför allt vill vi göra det till en mötesplats för gemensamma passioner, och för sådana intressen som kanske inte har så mycket överlapp men som kan fungera som klangbotten för varandra.

Doctorow. The answer is "probably." Family legend has it that my paternal grandfather's uncle is E.L.'s grandfather. My folks met E.L. in 1998 and tried this theory out on him, and he said that it sounded about right, but didn't seem very excited by it." -- http://www.answers.com/Q/Is_Cory_Doct... | |
