Ramon Fagan gives a detailed recap of All-Con 2011 (which had a steampunk theme this year). The report also includes several photos of cosplayers and the bands that performed during the convention.

San Diego’s very own steampunk convention has announced a special Time Traveler’s Masked Ball for their 2011 event.

Check out Ramon’s belated Ikkicon 2010 convention report! He attended Ikkicon in 2010 for the first time due to its location (Austin is one of his favorite towns) and the fact that they agreed to present the new award winning short film, Nickel Children, that his performance art troupe agreed to promote at various anime festivals due to its high quality use of Steampunk as art, and its underlying message intended to raise awareness of critical social problems.

Calling all Victorians, Neo-Victorians, airship captains, goths, vamps, counter culturists, artists, musicians, and anyone interested in what one may call an “alternative” lifestyle! (Boy is that a mouthful.) This weekend is “The Alternative Living Expo.”

I recently received this excellent invitation to an outdoor Steampunk Festival that looked like so much fun, I thought I would share it with you.
