Travel Back in Time to the Prehistoric Era, and join us for One Last Time!
What started as a silly little idea in September 2020 turned into what will now be five 8-bit virtual magic conventions.
This is our very last one.
We've hosted them in convention centres, amusement parks, and even outer space.
So we've got one more event happening, November 27th and 28th and we're going somewhere completely impossible - BACK IN TIME.
We're inviting all of your favourite lecturers, plus brand new faces to blow some minds in a prehistoric 8-bit world for one final event that you don't want to miss.
Over 90 of our previous convention attendees have already preordered their ticket to our final convention.
Aside from the incredibly talented and supportive community there's a few reasons why magicians keep coming back for more UnConventional.Fun.
Here's what you can look forward to at UnConventional.Fun BACK IN TIME
We're known for packing conventions with all star experts you've asked to see, the top magic stars that you want to see again, and new magicians and creators you've never seen before to blow your mind.
This year is going to be no different.
Here are just SOME of this conventions lecturers and performers:
We've featured magicians like Asi Wind, Garrett Thomas, Michael Ammar, Carissa Hendrix, David Williamson, Jay Sankey and so many more.
We custom built four unique worlds for four unique conventions, and
over 500 magicians have attended our virtual conventions in the last 14 months.
We're taking everything we've learned from the past 4 conventions to give this last one everything we've got!
Not only do we invite the best lecturers, and performers, but because of the nature of the convention:
You can find these rockstars jamming and hanging out, for hours, with you, in the UnConventional world!
Aside from the mind blowing talent Unconventional.Fun tends to attract a certain type of attendee.
Smart, talented magicians, who love to jam, loves to share, and love to meet new people and make new friends.
We've packed these two days with so much to do!
There's lectures, panels, and shows.
Always people jamming.
As well as puzzles you can play to win real world prizes!
All of the lectures and shows are recorded and yours to watch and rewatch forever.
So even if you only have a few hours to stop in on the convention to jam.
You'll get dozens of hours of mind blowing lectures to watch forever.
This is your last chance to attend and make friends at our 8-bit convention.
This is your last chance to spend two days jamming in a video game world.
This is your last chance to get recordings of the lectures and shows forever.
This is your ONLY chance at a magic convention in the PRE-HISTORIC ERA!
How does it work?
Once you get your ticket, you'll get information about how it works sent right to your inbox.
That includes line up announcements, step-by-step tutorials and more.
Plus, before the start of the convention you're going to get a tutorial video teaching you how to use the platform.
All you have to worry about is getting excited. Leave the complicated stuff to us.
How do I Jam in an 8-bit world
Great Question!
Even though the virtual world is 8-bit, the cameras are real!
Convention attendees fade into view as you get close to each other.
When you enter the lecture hall, all you can see is the lecturer's camera, but when you're jamming, you can see the webcams of everybody near you.
It's awesome!
What if I'm not available for two full days?
Just like a real convention where you can escape to your hotel room, there will be places an UnConventional.Fun for you to log out and get some rest.
No matter if you're arriving early, leaving late, or just need to stretch... we've got you covered.
Heck, some people get the tickets, miss the convention, but keep the recordings.
Can I use my phone/tablet
Unfortunately not.
You're going to need a Laptop or Desktop Computer. The UnConventional.Fun Software does not work on mobile.
Will the event be recorded?
YES AND NO - Let me explain.
Unfortunately since the platform is a massive online world with hundreds of conversations it's impossible to record the jamming and interactions.
But - All of the lectures, and shows happen on zoom and they will be recorded and yours forever.
But, the mingling around, making friends, jamming, and staying up late for hours sharing stories...
That part only happens AT UnConventional.Fun BACK IN TIME!
I'm bad with tech. Is it going to be hard to use?
Actually, it's incredibly simple. Log on, pick your character, and you're ready to go.
Plus, we're going to send out an easy step-by-step tutorial before the convention so you can learn exactly how it all works by the time you start.
Oh... and during the convention we'll have people available for tech support if you need any help or have any questions.
We thought of everything.
"Ben, Jonah and the crew run a truly original and super FUN virtual convention.
I loved being a part of it!"

"Seriously, thank you both (and all the other TMC and TMC-adjacent helpers!) for putting together what has literally been the highlight of my entire pandemic.
You are legit two of my favoritest people and I'm super glad to have met you.
Here's to the future."

Ben and Jonah always EXCEED my expectations.

Their attention to detail is AMAZING"

"That was my first magic convention and it was incredible. You guys did a really great job!
I was very cool to be able to discuss with so many magicians and was easy to find them using the search tool. π
Lectures were so interesting and useful. I have many items to shop for now...lol!
Again congrats for your success and can't wait for the recordings, the surprises and the invite for next year!"
