Illuxcon 2008
November 6-9
Altoona, PA
Omar and I were invited to take part in the very first Illuxcon. I did manage to take a few pictures, unfortunately I am not the greatest at photo documentaries. So here are some examples of what I managed to capture when I did remember to get my camera out. Not exactly what I'd call an exhaustive study of Illuxcon, but perhaps it will give you a flavor of what was there.... (some of the photos were supplied by Robert Wiener)
Also:
More photos are here and here on Bob Eggleton's blog. And some on Tom Kidd's blog.
We set up our "booth" with the chairs outside so viewers could sit down and have a chat. We just needed some coffee and snacks to really make it comfy.
