RIP Maurice White. Earth, Wind, and Fire is one of my all time faves. Best horn section in funk.

Stephen Hackett give a nice overview of this unique machine who’s importance and design cues still resonate in many Apple products today.

Honored to be one of those interviewed for this.

So I dusted off this talk from 2011, which I thought I’d never do again, but was useful in this emergency, also because my 2011 book was just re-released this year. They’re old stories for me, but new and useful to most people, so I swallowed my pride and made the best of it. It turned out really wonderful, loose, and fun. I’m so glad I did it.

Really great talk from one of my personal heroes. So many great take aways. Worth the time.

Con Man centers on the post-show life of Wray Nerely (Alan Tudyk) the co-star of “Spectrum,” a sci-fi series, which was canceled before its time and went on to become a cult classic beloved by fans. Wray’s good friend, Jack Moore (Nathan Fillion) starred as the series Captain and has gone on to become a major celebrity, while Wray (Tudyk) hasn’t found his desired level of stardom. Wray is the begrudging guest of sci-fi conventions, comic book store appearances, and different pop culture events; however, everything is not as it seems from the outside. The series will explore these events and all the weird and crazy things that happen to them along the way.

Con Man also features a plethora of Sci-Fi’s biggest personalities including: Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica), Amy Acker (Person of Interest), Gina Torres (Firefly, Suits), Sean Maher (Firelfly, Eastsiders), Felicia Day (Buffy The Vampire Slayer), Seth Green (Family Guy/Austin Powers), Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers), Jewel Staite, (Firefly), Summer Glau (Firefly, Terminator: SCC), Sean Astin (Lord of The Rings), James Gunn and Joss Whedon.

As a Firefly fan, this looks nothing short of fantastic and amazing. Can’t wait.
