M.Christian at ARSE ELEKTRONIKA



If you're in San Francisco on September 26th here's a chance to hear me read with some fantastic science fiction and erotica luminaries:
Friday, September 26, 9pm, doors open at 8 -- ARSE ELEKTRONIKA READING
(@ Center for Sex & Culture / 1519 Mission Street near 11th, San Francisco)

Carol Queen, with the support of the Center for Sex & Culture and cosponsorship of San Francisco's premiere SF/fantasy bookstore Borderlands, presents a curated erotic reading evening, featuring writers who commonly explore sexual themes in their science fiction and alt-reality fiction work. While the focus of much of the Arse Elektronika conference will be a critical deconstruction of sexual tropes in SF/speculative/alt-reality fiction, the focus of this event will be to appreciate and celebrate the fiction itself. Readers include Richard Kadrey, Rudy Rucker, M. Christian, Charlie Anders, Steven Schwartz, Thomas Roche, and Carol Queen.

No charge, but we will pass the hat in support of the Center for Sex & Culture, San Francisco's unique non-profit sex education resource!

Hey M. Christian. I was at AE but I regretfully found myself sleeping through the reading (jet lag is a real bitch). You should know that I mentioned you in my presentation at the conference, however, and also gave a plug for the Bachelor Machine during the 'Closure Panel'. You can read about my presentation here:

and the mp3 of the closure panel can be found on the Arse Elektronika website.

Thanks so much, Kit -- it's very sweet you mentioned me! Alas, something came up at the last minute and I couldn't make the reading (alas).

Best,

Chris
