Heidi Wunder is just as her name suggests…a wonder! She not only performs and teaches Tribal Belly Dance, but also lives the concepts that she teaches. She has a deep love of music, dance, nature, and of people. She brought all this and more to the stage on June 4th as the fictional “Delegate” from Persia in a supporting role in a “steampunk” Murder Mystery Play at a new Texas convention called the “Difference Engine” in Fort Worth, Texas.

When Dorian’s Parlor opened its doors one year ago it was the first venture of its kind on the east coast. Today it is a household name for those who love Steampunk and all things neo-vintage. Throughout the past year Dorian’s Parlor has showcased a fantastic roster of award winning and incredible performers, bands, artists and fashion designers. Now the event celebrates its one year anniversary by tossing the biggest and best party ever, and this is one you do not want to miss.

June boasts many interesting and unusual steampunk events; conventions, teas, dances, etc. Including one con that I’m REALLY looking forward to.

Sarasvati Bodhisattva is a truly excellent musician that plays and performs at a variety of types of conventions. She recently performed at Marquis of Vaudville’s Clockwork Wonderland and as an opening act for them at Allcon 2011. She also performed at the very first full steampunk convention in Texas down in San Antonio called Aetherfest in April 2011. Now she will be the Headliner musical performer for the Difference Engine Summit, Steampunk Murder Mystery Event on June 4th, 2011.

This hybrid multi-genre convention mixes steampunk, horror, pirates, sci-fi, and fantasy all with the unifying element of the Western Martial Arts. We’re pretty big on steampunk here at Convention Fans Blog so let me tell you that the steamy events scheduled so far for CombatCon 2011 are looking pretty sweet.
