This is a contract position to publicize Starship Congress, "the first-ever interstellar space science summit for interstellar space science organizations and advocates", in Dallas, TX, this August. Another publicity aspect is "INTERSTELLAR", a game jam centered around the OUYA game system and Unity3D game engine.

Are you a publicist about science-fiction and/or video gaming? That's key here. Do you have a developed media list? Also key.

Starship Congress is founded by space science non-profit Icarus Interstellar. Featured guests include TED Fellow Dr Rachel Armstrong, NASA scientist Dr Harold "Sonny" White, gravity-assist pioneer Dr Michael Minovitch, and pretty much every interstellar space organization on the planet.

The Icarus Interstellar sub-division FarMaker is producing "INTERSTELLAR" featuring Keynote speaker, science-fiction/video game art maestro Stephan Martiniere.

Starship Congress is a technical summit. There are representatives from all STEAM (science technology engineering art mathematics) disciplines.

Position lasts through August. Paid. Opportunity for further work.
