    Rising Tide IV

    posted Thursday, 23 July 2009

    Rising Tide IV is coming Saturday, August 22, 2009. Harry Shearer is the Keynote Speaker and there are panels planned on New Orleans' Culture, Health Care & Sports. There will be a cocktail meet and greet on Friday (details later) as well as a catered lunch. This is always a great event, characterized by lively interaction with incredibly interesting folks (and great food and plenty drink).

    Many thanks to Greg Peters for another amazing poster. This year's conference theme is "Sinking To Great Heights". Quoting Greg's poster description: "The figure represents Yemaja, a Yoruba Orisha and owner of all waters, patron of fishermen and wreck survivors, and manifestation of the feminine principle of creation."

    Details will unfold on the Rising Tide Conference Blog.

    Y'all come. Seriously. Registration is available here.

    Note: Dambala has a great further explanation of the Orisha pictured here over at American Zombie. Of course he does.

    "Sinking To New Heights" is the theme. 8-) And I'm starting to get excited and a tad squeamish. It's gonna be a good one this year!

    Thanks, Catty. It's great to see you around again!

    Leigh, what if I like Sinking to Great Heights better? It has a song. New Heights doesn't have a song. We can fix this. There's still time. It's not on the poster. ;)

    Such Great Heights

    Thanks, y'all, for stopping by. Lip, I'm just excited. This is going to be the best Rising Tide EVER!
