Corflu is a science fiction fanzine convention held each spring in North America (and three times in Britain). It is named after a slang term for the "correction fluid" used in mimeograph printing, a common way to produce fanzines before the arrival of low-cost photocopying and online fanzines. Each Corflu is organized by a different regional group, selected at the previous year's gathering. Previous Corflus have been held at: * 1984: Berkeley, California * 1985: Napa, California * 1986: Tysons Corner, Virginia * 1987: Cincinnati * 1988: Seattle * 1989: Minneapolis * 1990: New York City * 1991: El Paso * 1992: Los Angeles * 1993: Madison, Wisconsin * 1994: Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia * 1995: Las Vegas * 1996: Nashville, Tennessee * 1997: Walnut Creek, California * 1998: Leeds, England - the first Corflu held outside North America * 1999: Panama City, Florida * 2000: Seattle * 2001: Boston * 2002: Annapolis * 2003: Madison, Wisconsin * 2004: Las Vegas * 2005: San Francisco * 2006: Toronto * 2007: Austin * 2008: Las Vegas * 2009: Seattle * 2010: Winchester, England * 2011: Sunnyvale, California * 2012: Las Vegas * 2013 : Portland * 2014 : Richmond * 2015 : Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. The venue for the 2016 Corflu will be Chicago. Corflu is a small, informal convention with a single track of programming. Corflu's traditions include choosing the Guest of Honor randomly from the attendees and electing past presidents of the Fan Writers of America (which never has a current president). The Fan Activity Achievement Awards (FAAns) are presented annually at Corflu, and since 2010 a Lifetime Achievement Award has also been presented.〔(Corflu: The Fan Activity Achievement Awards (FAAns) )〕 == See also == * Ditto (convention) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corflu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
