Fans love reading, from novels to fanzines to progress re ports. As such, we are really excited to bring our Exhibition Event, The Technology of Reading, to Denver and to Fandom. We plan to have a full track of panels and roundtables on the subject, covering everything from ancient calligraphy to how computer chat is changing our language. We will present demonstrations of papyrus and paper making, modern eBook readers and perhaps a few surprises in between. We will also be hosting an exhibit displaying these various technologies and their products.
