I wasn't able to attend many of the sessions at #WisCon, due to the time-zone difference, but luckily most of them are up on Youtube, unlisted, for people who registered. Only until June 2, though, so I'll be trying to watch them soon.
#WisCon
Nearly time for the next panel for today, which is called "Resistance Lessons from History" and is about activism/direct action!
The #WisCon Vid Party, even when it's virtual, is still joy.
Just enough time to reheat my coffee before the next #wiscon2025 panel. It's called Beyond Western Storytelling, which will talk about alternative story structures!
I'm participating this weekend in the virtual #Wiscon ! Here's my #Wiscon2025 schedule (all times Central). I'll be moderating the Not A Race Panel with Erin Brown, Claire Light, and Keila Gallardo Cubas, in which we will talk about anything EXCEPT race, tonight at 7c/8eastern!

@harihareswara.net Make sure to rest up too!
A tight schedule of conferences in series can have #WisCon -sequences.
(sorry!)

Or email onlinecon@wiscon.net for info on signing up for shifts.
The two roles we have are:
Zoom Production Assistant: in this role you make sure a panel runs smoothly by doing things like helping troubleshoot issues, keep audience members muted, and keep track of the time.
Discord Moderator: in this role, you keep an eye on the Discord during your shift to respond to questions and issues if they come up.
Knowledge of the systems is helpful, but training is provided!
#WisCon is coming up soon, which means it's time to sign up for volunteer shifts! Volunteering is essential to make sure our programming can happen and we're able to offer a full WisCon experience.
#WisCon has an urgent need for panelists.
On May 19, the WisCon Panels team will pare down the schedule based on what we have not been able to staff. That means, we need you to get the word out to all the cool people to come be part of this con and make it awesome.
Please email Panels@WisCon.sf3.org if you are able to participate!
