Back in December of 2020 I did a "video panel" for the virtual Anime Weekend Atlanta, which was one of those online conventions we were having back when COVID-19 was wrecking convention schedules around the world. In fact it still is. Anyway, this is me hosting a little video walk through Atlanta's fandom conventions from the very first SF conventions in the city until about 1995 or so. There are flyers and images and a little video from conventions ranging from AFF to Dragoncon, from Dixie Trek to Starbase Atlanta, from ASFiCons to Phoenixcons, and me talking through the whole thing. Please enjoy and let it be a small reminder of what it was like back when we had conventions. Hopefully we'll be back at 'em soon!
