| Gregory goes over his layouts for B+F, and I look excited about being introduced by the great cartoonist, Ben Katchor. |
Gregory Benton and I had a great time speaking at The
sixty-sixth meeting of the
NY Comics & Picture-story Symposium
(hosted by Ben Katchor.) last Monday night at Parsons. Gregory spoke
about his process of making his new book, B+F and I gave a talk about
the history of Fumetti/Photonovellas and on my own history of making
Photocomix.
Keren Katz wrote up a thorough and compelling piece on the event for
The Rumpus, complete with a plethora of images for the presentation. Highly recommended reading.

| Artist, Chelle Mayer (granddaughter of the legendary cartoonist, Sheldon Mayer) was in attendance and drew this wonderful interpretation/distillation of my presentation. |
The New York Comics & Picture-Story Symposium is a weekly
forum for discussing the tradition and future of text/image work. Open
to the public, it meets Monday nights at 7-9pm EST in New York City.
Presentations vary weekly and include everything from historical topics
and technical demonstrations to creators presenting their work. Check
out upcoming meetings here.
