This is a post from @AnimeUnchained. #FANS10 will similarly be delayed. We are still accepting submissions for future events. #anime #Manga #fandom #Conference #journal #MediaStudies
We know you've been waiting for news, and we sincerely apologize for how long it’s taken to post an update. Unexpected delays in our annual funding have drawn out for too long, and with heavy hearts we are officially announcing the decision to postpone A-Kon 33.

2023 Anime Survey is now open (30 min or less). It’ll be open until September 15, 2023. Please participate at: tamuc.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8B…
We're doing our best not to melt along with our equipment. Videos and articles will be out asap.
July has trended hotter than normal, but not as hot as last year. July 2023 will likely finish as the 6th warmest July on DFW record. #wfaaweather
Please be careful.
Dangerous heat today and tomorrow. An Excessive Heat Warning goes in effect at noon today through Tuesday evening. Heat index values could approach 120°. DFW close to 115°. It already feels like 100 in DFW and it is not even midday yet. #wfaaweather
Last Call #CFP The Fandom and Neomedia Studies (FANS) #Conference, sponsored by A-Kon, is accepting individual presentations and panels on all areas of #fandom and #mediastudies. These include #history, #psychology, #technology, and many other fields. bit.ly/3RmnDl3
We are pleased to announce the #FoundingDirector of FANS #Japan, the #Honourable Dr. Darren-Jon Ashmore. As part of this year's events, he will be presenting an #InMemoriam for his late #Friend and #Teacher, #LeijiMatsumoto. All @weareakon members are welcome. Details #TBA.
We all know how this ends. #T2 #Terminator2 #T1000 #JeffGoldblumQuote vice.com/en/article/epz…
The UCSB Cylinder Audio Archive has 10k recordings available from the early era of sound recording. cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/index.php
