I have been to Sci-Fi conventions, but I've never liked Star Trek--too Apollonian. I was always more of a Dr. Who kid.
I don't know, some of those erotic aliens, like interstellar Sirens, were fairly Dionysian, at least on the original show. And Armantrout's same poem has another stanza that ends with a double entendre, "we make camp in the glitch," pointing to campy aspects of the series... Though for camp, Dr. Who is the hands down winner.
no, not a convention (just comix), but the sf museum in seattle--which is way cool. i was not v. impressed with the shatner roast the other night on comedy central tho. who stun-phasered the funny?
