Geekalicious ~ Toronto's Premier Geek Culture Social Group

You're invited to watch one of the best anime movies of all time - Akira (a masterpiece of Animation might I add). A post-apocalyptic, cyberpunk movie based Katushiro Otomo's 1982 manga, who will also direct and write the film.

SUMMARY - Set in a dystopian 2019, Neo-Tokyo is plagued by corruption, anti-government protests, terrorism, and gang violence.

It tells the story of Kaneda, a leader of a biker gang whose childhood friend, Tetsuo, acquires incredible telekinetic abilities after a motorcycle accident. His newfound powers eventually threatened an entire military complex amid chaos and rebellion in the sprawling futuristic metropolis of Neo-Tokyo.

Join us on Tuesday for an extra-special nerd event - we’ll be drawing a live model featuring 'Alice' from American McGee's Alice. Beginners are welcome, we'll start with a video on how to do gesture drawings.

American McGee's Alice is a third person action-adventure video game loosely based on Lewis Carroll's novels Alice in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking Glass (1871).

It presents a gloomy, cruel and violent version of the setting and centers on the novels' protagonist Alice, whose family is killed in a house fire years before the story of the game takes place. After several years of treatment in a psychiatric clinic, the emotionally traumatized Alice makes a mental retreat to Wonderland, which has been disfigured by her injured psyche.

Participants are welcome to and encouraged to chat. Music will be played in the background according to the theme of the event. Our regular members are social and not easily-offended, but respectful. However, cameras must be on; if not, you will be booted from the event

The entrance fee is $8 USD (plus fees) paid through Ko-fi, which will go towards the model and organization.

Pay here - https://ko-fi.com/s/bc0ab7dc13

Once paid, we will share the Zoom link via Ko-fi message. Please make sure that your name on Ko-fi goes with your Meetup name.

**No refunds or credits for missed sessions.** Our models are passionate nerds themselves, and are doing this to share in our joy of drawing nerd icons.
