That being said, I think Arisa had more sense of "community".

I was surprised by how much Arisia felt like a real convention and not just a bunch of conversations to dead air. I'm glad about the programming at Boskone, though!

I did get a chance to catch Have Your Seen My Movie "at" the Brattle, an neat experiment that creates a narrative about watching a movie by editing together the almost endless amount of footage that exists across film of people attending movies: buying tickets, walking the red carpet, working the projection booth, making out in the dark, and so on.

I don't know how much it would do for me to watch that movie, but I like the idea of it existing.
