One of the many cool things that will be happening at Worldcon is that Neil Gaiman’s photographer friend, Kyle Cassidy, will be running an open studio from 10:00am to 4:00pm pm on Saturday. Anyone can come along and ask to be photographed. Obviously this will appeal particularly to people in hall costumes, but Kyle tells me he is looking to photograph all sorts of attendees. If you were to hire someone like Kyle to photograph you it would probably cost a fortune, so this looks like a neat opportunity.
To see some examples of Kyle’s work, take a browse through his LiveJournal (unless you are allergic to cats) and his Where I Write project.
Update: times corrected as per discussion with Anne and Kyle below.
Kyle original post says noon to 6, but the program guide (and Kyle’s latest post) says it starts at 10 am (and goes for 6 hours, I believe).
(Is that enough parentheticals for a short sentence?)
The Program Guide contains a significant number of scheduling errors, including having me down for one panel I won’t be on, and a Match Game show that won’t happen. I’ll see if I can get some clarification for Kyle tomorrow (unless someone in the US wants to do it today, it is getting late in the UK).
the most recent thingie i got from the scheduling people says 10-4, so that’s when i’ll show up. thanks for the plug.
