2010 WAS UNCON YEAR
The recent irregularity of Fortean Times UnConventions has imbued them with an esoteric edge, a when-will-it-be, where-will-it-be frisson known only to the initiated.

Whatever analogy you fancy, October 2010 was the time and the University of Westminster, Marylebone, London, the place. Our hopes were high, our minds open, and the usual questions on our minds: are we alone in the Universe; what happens after we die; what is it with forteans and hats?
