Cover for my Keycon retrospective zine I haven't checked in for a while and today some exciting news came out so I figured it's time I posted an update. Why haven't I posted much? I've been busy with work and real life....but also working hard in the background as always.
First off for exciting news, I decided to see what would happen if I took this project a little more seriously so
I signed up to be a vendor at Keycon 2024. So if you're going, I'll see you there!
Not gonna lie, seeing this is weird. Silly me with people who are running actual businesses is funny lol. As a vendor, I will have some things for sale:
1) From the header image, I'll have a Keycon retrospective zine with a new sticker.
2) I'm working on an artisan collab which will have an accompanying booklet.
3) The other zines I've made and hopefully some of the older stickers I've had made so far.
Besides having stuff to buy on the table, I'll be displaying retro keyboards and resin. Nothing on the table will be older than September 2014, which is the last time someone posted in the Keycon 2014 thread. I want to show people what we had available at meetups a decade ago. Thank you so much to rmendis helping with the table. And of course everyone else who's bringing stuff.
Also Artisan Collector was kind enough to invite me to be on a panel! I'm uniquely qualified since I'm old lmao. Here's a list of my credentials -
Keycon 2013,
Keycon 2014, and
Keycon 2015.
I know I didn't post a lot of details but I will later so I hope you're excited for those.
Finally, here's some pixels explaning some of why I was busy IRL. I took a field trip to the TX Cafe in Saigon.
