Detcon1 2014

Detcon1 is the 2014 North American Science Fiction Convention. Detcon1 plans a broad and integrated program encompassing literature, music, art, media, science, gaming, fanac, and Maker topics. We expect to run panels, demos, and workshops in most areas, and will also include concerts, readings, events, special presentations, and games. Our kids & teen track will build on the extensive Michigan experience and expertise in children’s and youth programming. As part of our reflection on our history, we intend to present a retrospective of Detention, Detroit’s 1959 Worldcon. Key themes are Innovation, Technology, and Revitalization, reflecting the unique situation of Detroit as a lab for urban renewal in the 21st century.
