 Encyclopedia4U - Filk music - Encyclopedia Article
Originally "filk music" was a typo for folk music in a never-published essay on the influence of Science Fiction and Fantasy on folk music.
Filk is a form of music created from within fandom, generally late at night at science fiction conventions.
Filk is still sung in late night filk circles at Science Fiction conventions but there are also dedicated Filk conventions each year in the US, Canada, UK and Germany.

 A short introduction to Filk Music
Filk is a subset of folk music that is practiced in, by, and for the Science Fiction and Fantasy fan community.
Filk is most commonly performed a cappella or by singers accompanied by a guitar.
Filk also includes songs about things of interest to fandom and strongly resembles contemporary folk music.
