[seattle] Dorkbot 36: Retro-Dork

[trochee]

Dorkbot 36 "Retro Dork" is this Wednesday at 911 Media Arts (402 9th Ave. N, Seattle).

We have Donald Martin presenting retro computing (analog/digital hybrids, sonic mercury delay line memory whatever that is, etc), and Phil Foglio, presenting the steampunk "gaslamp fantasy" Girl Genius.

I'm proud to say that (1) inviting the Foglios was my idea and outreach and (2) I will be MC'ing the event. Given the theme, I'm considering wearing the tails from my first wedding and aiming a little old-school mad-science.

Please join me, as retro as you can!

You mean like these? I might just be able to help.... [bear in mind, though, that you might be effectively blind wearing them indoors, as they are intended for sunny days in snowy places]

I was thinking more like these. Brass and rivets are key here.
