Ten years ago this summer,Β Person of InterestΒ ended. This July 31βAugust 2, we're throwing a free virtual fan convention to celebrate it β and we want your ideas on the program.
If you've been sitting on a character analysis, a meta discussion, a rewatch breakdown, a creative workshop, or really any panel concept that would be at home in a room full of POI fans: this is your moment.
When you submit, you'll be asked whether your panel isΒ OpenΒ orΒ Closed. Here's what that means:
Closed PanelΒ β You're submitting both the idea and the full moderator lineup. If accepted, the programming committee won't find additional co-mods. Your co-mods don't need to be confirmed at submission time, but you are committing to run this panel.
Open PanelΒ β You're pitching the idea and asking the programming committee to assemble the moderator team from volunteers. If you'd rather moderate someone else's open panel than pitch your own, we'll open a sign-up thread atΒ contingencycon.comΒ after submissions close.
A few other things worth knowing:
You can submit up to 3 panels, ranked by your preference
There will also be also a poster presentation option if you'd rather share something async (no camera required) Stay tuned for updates on this.
The form takes about 10 minutes, and a PDF preview is on the site if you want to draft offline first
Deadline: May 24, 2026Β Submit at:Β contingencycon.com
Questions are welcome here. We'd love to see what this fandom has been thinking about for the last decade!
