The Earth Station Trek Guide to Star Trek is now available! Written by the hosts of the Earth Station Trek podcast (Veronica Dashiell, Keith Johnson, Charles Kelso, and R. Alan Siler), the book is a very personal reflection on what Star Trek means to them. The book made its official debut on April 5, 2025 at the Stellar Fest convention. For more information, or to purchase, visit the book’s web page.
Here it is — trailer #1 for our upcoming documentary, UNCONVENTIONAL: The TimeGate / WHOlanta Story! The teaser trailer that we released two weeks ago (on the day of the con’s 20th Anniversary) featured mostly previously unseen archival footage. This trailer highlights newly-shot material and will give you an insight into the story that the documentary will be telling.
The documentary will be released with a premiere event in Atlanta later this year.
20 years ago tonight, Doctor Who made its return to British Televisions, and the TimeGate convention held its first-ever event. To celebrate that dual anniversary, here is the teaser trailer for our upcoming documentary, UNCONVENTIONAL: The TimeGate / WHOlanta Story!
We’re very excited to announce that in ONE WEEK — on March 26, 2025 — we will be releasing the first teaser trailer for our new documentary, UNCONVENTIONAL: The TimeGate / WHOlanta Story! We realize that there hasn’t been much in the way of public updates recently, but we’ve been VERY BUSY behind the scenes filming content, combing through archival footage, and storyboarding the final film. We still have a few more key interviews to shoot, and that will be done in the next few weeks. We’ve made a lot of progress on this project and we’re very excited to debut it later this year. And in ONE WEEK you’ll get your first taste of what we’ve been working on!
THE EARTH STATION TREK GUIDE TO STAR TREK is the new book from the hosts of the Earth Station Trek Podcast! Featuring twenty brand-new essays covering topics never discussed on the podcast before, or explored to a new depth. The hosts (Veronica Dashiell, Keith Johnson, Charles Kelso, and R. Alan Siler) first announced the book on Star Trek Day 2024 (September 8) and gave their audience a preview of it on the show’s 200th episode. The book will be officially released at the Stellar Fest Convention (April 4 – 6, 2025) in Atlanta, GA.
The APPEARANCES Page has been updated with a full schedule for 2025, including a brand new convention called Stellar Fest, repeat appearances at Dragon Con and Conjuration, and two more GA Indie Book Faires! More will be added when confirmed. Still to be scheduled: the premiere screening event for the release of UNCONVENTIONAL: The TimeGate/WHOlanta Story. Stay tuned for further updates!
We are very pleased to announce our involvement in a new film project chronicling the history and legacy of the science fiction convention known originally as TimeGate and then WHOlanta. Co-founded by kOZMIC owner and author R. Alan Siler, the convention ran for 17 years, from 2005 to 2021. Next year will be the 20th anniversary of the convention’s origin. This film will reveal some of the behind-the-scenes stories of how the con came about, its growth over the years, and the circumstances of its ending told through archival video footage and photos never before seen by the public plus brand-new interviews with con-runners, volunteers, and guests.
kOZMIC is partnering with Minty Pineapple, Everyman Productions, and FWDPWR in the creation of this film. The filmmakers have launched an Indiegogo campaign to help fund this project. Please donate if you can! We are also asking for donations of any video footage from any year of the convention, especially the early years.
