Adelaide marvels at a super exhibition!

Exhibition curator of Franco-Belgian comic book literature and memorabilia

I received a booking to curate Australia's first exhibition of la bande dessinée franco-belge at Supanova Comic-con and Gaming at the Adelaide Showgrounds.

I enjoyed a steady flow of the approx; 20,000 pop culture fans that attended Supanova, and included to the exhibition was rare literature from the 1930s to present day, as well as a series of dioramas and sculptures.  

Franco-Belgian comic book literature is officially recognised as the ninth art, and many fan favourites like; Tintin, Asterix, Lucky Luke, and others were on exhibit all weekend!  

Most appreciative thanks to Supanova Comic Con and Gaming and I was chuffed to receive an invite to curate another exhibition at next year's event!

Tintin Unmasked at Game Obsession Expo - August 5!

Today I was in Country South Australia at Game Obsession Pop Culture Expo at Mannum Showgrounds as the Keynote Speaker.

My first presentation delved into my thesis investigation of Tintin's creator and the controversy that surrounded his employment as a Writer/Illustrator during the Second World War.

My second keynote of the day at Game Obsession Pop Culture Expo discussed Conlangs (Constructed Languages).

Fun was today's focus with much encouragment offered to my audience to participate during the workshop as they delved into learning a language that has been created for the tv and film industry. Today, Klingon language was the focus, and I had a most enjoyable time engaging with my audience!

Special thanks to Game Obsession Pop Culture Expo for booking me as their Keynote Speaker.

Bastille Day celebrations in Adelaide - July 13 and 14!

There was a great atmosphere at the Adelaide Central Market during their celebration of Bastille Day. A wide range of cultural events were presented as part of the weekend commemoration, and I had a most enjoyable time connecting with visitors about the significance of the event. 

Of course, plenty of fun Tintin cosplay to be had!

A sellout keynote at the City of Burnside Library!

I had a most receptive and enthusiastic audience during the presentation of my thesis research and investigation of Tintin's creator during the Second World War.

I'll be conducting keynotes in the Eastern States of Australia on this subject from July to November. 

There was much conversation offered from the attending group which generated a series of stories and anecdotes about many of the pieces on exhibit.
