SCA Resume for Justin du Coeur
- ------------------------------

More or less in the order they occur to me --

Current Offices and Suchlike:

- -- Deputy Seneschal / Borough Liaison. (This is mainly a formalization
   of the fact that I tend to hang out with the boroughs, and know
   the Seneschal well enough to keep her apprised of what's going on.)

- -- Founder and head of the Low Company. (This is a sort of pseudo-guild
   for games and related subjects. It's less active than it once was,
   but flares up as I have the inclination. "Ace" was originally
   intended to be my title within the Low Company, but has wound up
   being more my personal nickname when in appropriate company.)

- -- One of the people behind "questions@sca.org" (the semi-official
   question-answering group for the Society), pretty much for as
   long as the SCA's had an online presence.

- -- Keeper of the Carolingian Homepage (the one at waks.org);
   the Period Games Homepage; lots of more minor pages.

Previously:

- -- Provost of Fenmere. (Two terms, freshman and junior years in 
   '83 and '85.)

- -- Founding Secretary of the Grand Council of the Society. (The
   Board of Directors braintrust responsible for arguing about Issues
   that concern the SCA. Tibor is currently the Chairman.)

- -- Autocratted and/or kitchened five events, as I recall. (Kitchened
   a May Day, kitchened and assistant autocratted Happy Feet III,
   kitchened the second Arabic event, kitchened and autocratted
   Baronial 20th anniversary, autocratted the Winter's Revel at
   Lincoln's Inn.)

- -- Founder of the Accademia della Danza. (The Baronial hardcore dance
   group.)

- -- Founder of the Letter of Dance (the Society dance newsletter), and
   editor/publisher for the first several years.

- -- Creator and keeper of the Rolls Ethereal (the online SCA directory)
   since '89. (I'm still doing that, but it doesn't take much ongoing
   effort since I automated it.)

- -- Producer of The Knight of the Burning Pestle. (A play by two of
   Shakespeare's contemporaries, directed by Alessandro.)

- -- Carolingian dancemaster for a couple of years.

- -- Member, then Chair of the Carolingian Demo Committee, back when that
   still existed. (This was a body that ran for a few years, which
   spent a lot of time talking about *how* we should do demos. An
   interesting time, although I don't know if a huge amount was
   accomplished.)

- -- Author, The Provost's Handbook; SCA Group Creation 101; probably
   some other tracts I'm forgetting about.

Awards: Gingersnap, Kitchen Drudge, Terpsichore, Freedom of the
Bridge, Moon, Daystar, Manche, Silver Crescent, and Laurel. Sometime
holder of the Felding Favor. One of the few holders of an Award of
Legs.

Interests: 

- -- Pretty much everything. I'm sort of a professional dilettante, with
   a long-term goal of at least trying all of the arts that the SCA
   practices. I don't do many of them deeply, but I've been involved in
   most of Carolingia's guilds at one time or another. (Looking at the
   list in the Liber, I think there are three that I've never attended;
   I've been seriously active in about ten of them at one time or another.)

- -- On the martial side, I've played with all of the martial arts
   except equestrian. I dabble with archery and thrown weapons now
   and then; I spent a couple of years doing fencing; and I spent
   about a year learning armored combat *way* back when. If I wind
   up as Baron, I'll get back into armor (if I can some help making
   a decent set) -- IMO, the Baron should be able to be with the troops
   on the field at Pennsic.
