Turing Fest

Welcome to the fourth round of Turing Fest, a fanwork exchange for robotic characters!

"Robotic" characters, for the purposes of this exchange, are characters in the realm of AIs, robots, androids, mecha, machines, cyborgs, and other technology-focused characters.

By signing up for this exchange, you're committing to create a gift for at least one person, and receive a gift in return. Gifts can be either fanfiction (800 words minimum) or fanart (at least finished lineart, on unlined paper if drawing traditionally).

This exchange shifted to a later schedule last year, but this year will return to a schedule more closely resembling the original (slightly earlier) 2018/2019 schedule! Additionally, we have changed our time zone from CST to UTC. Otherwise, we remain the same Turing Fest you know and love and we are so happy to be back. The rules and requirements are identical to the previous year's.
