OSCAR SYMPOSIUM
with
your host Nathaniel
and five very special guests
February 2009
| February
16th, 2009 Every
year we shake up the roster of participants to keep things unpredictable
and this year we accidentally shook harder. No repeat guests from
last year are back though Ed Gonzalez of Slant fame was on the first
panel in 2005. The rest of our guests: Timothy Brayton, Karina Longworth,
Erik Lundegaard and Kris Tapley are new to the Oscar Symposium but
presumably their names aren't new to you. If by some miracle you're
unfamiliar with their fine work, you can fix that. Check out their
work at the links provided. You won't be sorry. Thanks
