Furry Convention? Final - The Cockroach with the Brains
My final project for photography was a documentary style collection of photos featuring Furry Connection North 2013
As a side project, I wrote information for each photo. They can be viewed with or without the text. Special thanks to all of those who I interviewed and caught in my camera's view.
Dr. Samuel Conway holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Ursinus College and a doctorate in organic chemistry from Dartmouth. He is the author of eleven professional publications in scientific literature, holds three patents, and is a current employee of Cerexagi Corporations; which is the agrochemical division of Atofina chemicals. He is an active member of the Mad Scientists Network, an online forum where members of the public can ask real scientists questions. Dr. Conway is also the founder and chairmen of Anthrocon, Inc. Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Anthrocon is the largest furry convention in the world. Under Dr. Conway’s leadership, Anthrocon and the furry fandom at large has thrived. His influence within the fandom includes handling such touchy subjects as public relations, hotel contracts, finances, and damage control for Anthrocon, Inc.
His own fursona, a samurai cockroach called Kagemushi, gained him the beloved titled Uncle Kage by the furry fandom. Uncle Kage’s interest also extends beyond the political side of the fandom. He has been known to fursuit around conventions in disguise in order to slip out of his professional role and become normal like the other furries. Uncle Kage’s Story Hour is a feature at almost every convention. At this hour long event, furries sit in eager attention as Uncle Kage tells stories from his life and job, both as a scientist and as chairmen of Anthrocon. His passion and protective love for the fandom has been a guiding role for many to look up to in the fandom.
