So there is this thing called Millicon coming up next month. Perhaps you have heard of it.

(If not:

millicons.)

This year there will be programming. And

shati and I have had a BRILLIANT IDEA. And for this BRILLIANT IDEA to be BRILLIANTLY EXECUTED (but not in the messy way, because that's gross), we have a question for the game at large:

Are you now, or have you ever, been a vidder?

And if so ~~you filthy communist who hates freedom~~, are your vid(s) uploaded anywhere? Can we see them?

Can we...

...show them?

Drop me an e-mail at agonistes at gmail dot com. While this isn't an "official Milliways vidshow" -- it's more like "Shati and I like these vids that have Milliways canons in them, and we think they're worth showing on a larger screen" -- we'd also like to showcase the efforts of Milliways players, whether or not you are attending the con. We'll try to work in as many vids as we can, though we seem to be under a pretty strict time allowance. We do plan to keep showing vids at least one night of the con in a more casual setting, though, so we can pretty much guarantee that you'll have an audience for your work.

Questions? That's why Al Gore invented the wily jungle 'LJ comment'.

I'm not a vidder, but I have some copies of vids that I really love and that relate to Milliways canon. Would that be allowed, probably for the unofficial showing?

Oh, sure! Assuming our time for the formal show is an hour, we're really (and I mean really) close to filling that up, so we're looking for Milliways vidders to know what we need to try and shift around. We've also asked for recs for Milliways fandoms that we aren't all that familiar with over on

vidding.

"More casual show" is totally code for "we're invading somebody's room with our laptops", and the more laptops the merrier! We'll make a similar announcement when we're actually there -- that way we'll have a better idea of when and where it'll happen.

Fantastic.

Now I wish I'd finished that Cowboy Bebop vid I was working on back in my undergraduate days. *woes just a wee bit*

Me too. *woeface*

I am working on at least one of my own that MIGHT be ready by Millicon. If it is, I'll definitely throw it into the casual vidding show in whoever's room.
