April 28Th-30Th, 2017 Cincinnati Steampunk Salon First Saturday of the Month - 8PM+ “30 Years of Steampunk” April 28th-30th, 2017 Cincinnati Steampunk Salon First Saturday of the Month - 8PM+ 112 E 4th St, Covington, Kentucky 41011 www.MollyMalonesIrishPub.com Covington, Kentucky Welcome to the Symposium More than half a decade ago, dozens of airship crews from all across the state, the nation, and even the globe converged in Cincinnati, Ohio to compete in the first ever Steampunk Olympics. This began the annual gathering known as the International Steampunk Symposium! Founded in 2012, the International Steampunk Symposium is one of the longest running Steampunk festivals in the world. On a mission for the promotion and preservation of all things Steampunk, the Symposium plays a vital part in its dedication to the Steampunk Community. Additionally, it’s a jolly good time where you are likely to find several friends whom you have yet to meet! Our theme for 2017 is celebrating “30 Years of Steampunk” with author K.W. Jeter who coined the phrase in April 1987. This weekend’s convention presents the timeline of how our favorite fandom has evolved from a literary sub- genre into a full fledged community. Symposium Safety Policies International Steampunk Symposium wants everyone to have a fun, enjoyable and entertaining event, so please follow these sensible guidelines: 1. You must wear your 2017 Symposium badge or wristband at all times to be admitted to any convention function; lost badges or wristbands can not be replaced. 2. All attendees must abide by the Symposium Safety Policy against harassment. 3. Possession and/or consumption of alcoholic beverages by anyone under 21 years of age is grounds for expulsion from the convention without refund. 4. Keep all behavior considered publicly offensive in your hotel rooms. 5. Check all weapons at Registration for peacebinding; realistic replica firearms are not permitted. We reserve the right to ask you to leave the convention and refuse to refund your ticket if you are violating Symposium safety policies. Please Note . Announced events and guests are subject to change and/or cancellation without notice. Every effort will be made to announce any changes via SteampunkSymposium.com and pre-convention publications but sometimes last-minute changes will occur. International Steampunk Symposium LLC and affiliates are not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged property, or for injuries sustained during the course of the convention. Cincinnati Halloween Masquerade October 21st, 2017 Southgate House Revival 111 E 6th St, Newport, KY Symposium Safety Policies International Steampunk Symposium’s convention committee wants the International Steampunk Symposium to be a safe, enjoyable convention for everyone. To this end, everyone with an International Steampunk Symposium badge or wristband is required to abide by the International Steampunk Symposium code of conduct. International Steampunk Symposium has a ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY for harassment. Harassment is generally any behavior that annoys, alarms, or threatens another person or group of any kind, including but not limited to: stalking, offensive verbal comments, non-consensual photography/recording, bathroom-policing, unwelcome physical attention, intimidation, physical assault and/or battery. In relation to, but not limited to: Race, Color, National Origin, Gender, Gender Identity, Gender Presentation, Sexual Orientation, Age, Body Size, Disability, Appearance, Religion, Citizenship, or Pregnancy. Our policy applies to EVERYONE at the convention: exhibitors, entertainers, attendees, speakers, guests, professionals, press, staff, volunteers, chairs and security are all subject to our anti-harassment policy and will be held to the same standards and disciplinary action. Harassment of convention members online or in electronic venues will be treated as seriously as physical harassment. Making any member of the public feel unwelcome at the International Steampunk Symposium is also considered harassment. If a person engages in harassing behavior the International Steampunk Symposium (ISS) staff will take prompt action in any form they deem appropriate, including expulsion from ISS with no refund and may result in expulsion and/or long term suspension of your future eligibility for ISS membership. Anyone can report harassment. If someone’s behavior has made you uncomfortable you should immediately contact a member of ISS staff, security team, email noharm@ thepandorasociety.com. All staff members will be recognized by wearing ORANGE lanyards. Include as much detail as you feel comfortable disclosing so we can address the situation immediately. If you are still in the area where the incident took place and it is safe to stay do so and someone will meet you. If necessary we will provide escort, offer a safe place to talk and assist anyone experiencing harassment to make sure they are and feel safe for the entirety of the Convention. We will also contact local law enforcement if it is necessary and stay with you until they arrive. City of Blue Ash Non-Emergency Service 513-745-8555 City of Blue Ash Emergencies 911 In all cases where someone has told you or demonstrated that they do not wish to interact with you, do not contact them in any fashion, including through an intermediary, unless and until they approach you of their own initiative. Just as you do not owe anyone your time, your attention, or physical contact, no one owes you theirs. If you wish to report an incident after the convention, or would like to express your concern about an incident that occurred outside of ISS involving a convention attendee, you may email our anti-harassment committee ([email protected]) at anytime. International Steampunk Symposium wants everyone to have a fun, enjoyable and entertaining event in comfort and safety.

  • The Cyborg Prophecy: Reading Between Isaac Asimov's Lines
    The Cyborg Prophecy: Reading between Isaac Asimov’s Lines Rudrani Gangopadhyay Jadavpur University, Kolkata Abstract: Donna Haraway’s “Cyborg Manifesto” describes the Cyborg as a conjunction of technology and discourse. It argues that a prosthesis becomes a cyborg element when it is integrated with the identity of an individual, and a cyborg is created by the almost symbiotic union of robotic and organic elements. Isaac Asimov, in his short story “The Bicentennial Man” for example, narrates the story of such a remarkable union of robotic and human parts and asserts, at the end, that the resultant system is, essentially, human. A cyborg, therefore, is ‘meta-human’, being somewhat enhanced (by the use of technology) in certain ways in comparison to a human being. There isa mass cyborgization of the global population taking place today. The kind of blurring of boundaries between exogenous and endogenous parts within the system of a human being that one had, so far, only come across in science fiction, is fast coming to life. The obvious example of prosthetics aside, gadgets like cellphone headsets, touchscreen phones and similar electronic devices have been rendered extensions of the human system, merging seamlessly with the organic identities and consequently, making cyborgs out of everyone. The relevance of literature featuring cyborgs, which have, in a way, acted as prophecies for human civilization, therefore cannot be emphasized enough. This paper explores the cyborg identity in select works of Isaac Asimov and reflect on the fast occurring cyborgization of the (meta-)human race in reality. Keywords: Science Fiction, Isaac Asimov, Cyborg, Cybernetics, Body Studies Donna Haraway, in the famous “Cyborg Manifesto,” describes a cyborg as a conjunction of technology and discourse (Haraway 149).

  • LESSON 5: Boneshaker by Cherie Priest
    LESSON 5: Boneshaker by Cherie Priest On the forum, I gave you the following assignment: Read the first 5 pages of Boneshaker by Cherie Priest. List the Steampunk elements you find. Then list the ESSENTIAL Steampunk genre elements, and then the Character descriptions, then setting Your chart will look something like this: STEAMPUNK ...................... ESSENTIAL ...................CHARACTER ...........SETTING ELEMENTS ......................... ELEMENTS.....................ELEMENTS...............ELEMENTS black overcoat black overcoat 11 crooked stairs 11 crooked stairs and so on you can find Boneshaker here at Amazon The table part didn’t come out very well so here’s a better version. I added the word “ALL” to the column labels because I wanted you to understand that in those columns I’m not looking for any specific elements other than those labeled. For instance, under “CHARACTER ELEMENTS (ALL)” give all the character elements you find, not just elements pertaining to the Steampunk genre.

I couldn’t find a specific definition for exactly what that term meant at Amazon.com, but just from the term itself, you can tell it’s the list of books that, while aren’t classics yet, are becoming so for various reasons.
