The Artist | Red Wombat Studio Ursula Vernon is the author and illustrator of “Nurk,” “Digger,” and a number of other projects. The daughter of an artist, she spent her youth attempting to rebel and become a scientist, but eventually succumbed to the siren song of paint (although not before getting a degree in anthropology, because life isn’t complete without student loans, right?).

I’ve strolled through The Dinner Party, seen bunches of feminist art exhibits and my favorite of all, attended a Barbara Hammer book tour event! Judy Chicago (American, b. 1939). But it turns out, not everyone can or wants to live in Brooklyn. Welcome to the Feminist Art Base, the first online digital archive dedicated solely to feminist art. In addition to the database, the Brooklyn Musuem website offers podcasts and videos so go ahead and get your art on without weathering the elements of the real out of doors. Annie Sprinkle.

podcast | Speculating Canada: Canadian Horror, Science Fiction, and Fantasy At the Academic Conference on Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy, I had the opportunity to talk with one of the first Canadian SF authors that I had read and absolutely adored, Tanya Huff. She allowed me to take a few minutes to record our conversation and play it here on Speculating Canada. The audio file of our interview will be available on Saturday August 31st for you to download and listen to as a podcast or stream. In our interview, we discuss playing with the idea that when encountering “monsters”, it is often the humans that behave more monstrously, the role of class and clothing in fantasy literature, werewolves, zombies and the social fear of aging, the switch between the interest in the vampire to interest in the zombie, the blurring of boundaries between horror and fantasy, de-fanging the vampire, romance and the vampire, identity, the use of queer or LGBTQ characters, discrimination against books with queer characters, books and identity.
