VCF West update -- exhibits, ticketing, logo!

[EvanK]

VCF West has 32 registered exhibits. That's pretty good for a show that last ran in 2007!

Pre-order ticket sales end tomorrow at midnight ET. More available at the gate.

Full event info is here: http://vcfed.org/wp/festivals/vintage-computer-festival-west/

Here's a preview of the event logo.

Are you sure this isn't for VCF-Berlin? Have you ever googled the Prussian, German, and Nazi eagles?

JFC...

Edit: changed to not in-line my own image since it's so offensive to me.

 

[EvanK]

Definitely not.

It's supposed to be a phoenix. VCF West last ran under its former owner in 2007, so we decided to depict a phoenix rising from the magic smoke of a sacrificial vintage computer.

Maybe not an exact match but they're certainly first cousins!

I like the circuit design. Are you putting this on t-shirts like VCFSE? Might be a tad detailed. Didn't guess phoenix either, but since they are fictional animals, who knows what they "should" look like.

 

[EvanK]

Yup, this is the shirt design.

So excited!

This time next week, I'll be on a plane heading home from the event. Hopefully I'll be dead tired from spending a full weekend soaking up retro computing!

Oh, and I get the logo. Will also get the t-shirt!

Looking forward to meeting you there.
