The state fair is a quintessential part of American heritage. It’s where rural meets urban, food is sold on a stick, and carnival rides fill the air with screams of excitement. Many people encounter farm animals for the first time at the state fair. I milked a cow at my first state fair, and was able to help feed a few hogs. It’s this connection to the pastoral that Morphicon 2010 : State Fair is about celebrating. With a deep appreciation for those people in our society that work with animals on a daily basis. Not to mention the thrill of an exciting ride, the taste of sickeningly sweet, always deep fried food, as well as the companionship of enjoying all that with others.
