Heya, I volunteer with a Video game music and video gaming festival called
MAGFest that happens off of the DC Beltway in Maryland. It's in it's 15th
year or something and brings around 20,000 people. The division I mostly
deal with is arcade machines, but we spawned a computer museum section
in the arcade a few years ago that now has it's own room.
The guy that ran the entire event from 2nd event to 9th event is a
chiptune artist who is big into retro computing and retro computing music
(Inverse Phase is his chiptune name.)
The computer museum is 3000 square feet and mostly plastic micros and DOS
machines. Kaypro, Osbourne, etc. Some early Macs and other technology
makes it on display, as well as rare and odd console gaming systems. Not
exactly 1:1 with what VCF is but still it's a pretty wide audience.
I actually just found out that a new Amiga documentary is being premiered
at 'fest in the movie area about the Amiga and a few early Amiga people
are going to be there.
Anyways, if there is a flyer for VCF East in PDF form or something I'll
print out a bunch and make sure they're at event so that people coming to
the museum (and Arcade) learn about VCF East. 1/2 a page is best, but I
also have a large format printer (36" wide) and am willing to run off a
big sheet or two.
The people that handle the museum room (who are also into the arcade
thing) are long time friends, they actually came to VCF East 2016 with me
and probably will come again to 2017.
Anywho, figure I'd put it out there :-)
