List-Id: Hackerspaces General Discussion List <discuss.lists.hackerspaces.org>
Hello!
If you're looking for the ticket discount link, scroll down. Everyone else, read on!
Hopefully by now you've all heard about Electromagnetic Field, the UK hacker/maker camp that is occurring in just over a months time. In case you haven't, here's the gist:
Electromagnetic Field is a non-profit three day camping festival for people with an inquisitive mind or an interest in making things: hackers, geeks, scientists, engineers, artists, and craftspeople.
It's taking place in Milton Keynes between the 31st August and the 2nd September and is inspired by European camps such as the Chaos Communication Camp and Hacking At Random, which means that we have an absurd internet connection to a field, and power to every tent.
There will be talks and workshops on everything from genetic modification to lockpicking, blacksmithing to high-energy physics, reverse engineering to electronic engineering, quadcopters to beer brewing and crocheting to carpentry. If you decide to talk about something, there's space for you to do so, and plenty of people who want to listen.
The campsite will be littered with interesting things to play with and explore, from ride-on tanks to giant dinosaurs. And more lasers than you can shake a laser-covered stick at.
Attendees are encouraged to form villages and put on activities for other people around the camp, and we're going to have villages covering everything from gaming to 3D printing. If you'd like to form a village, get in touch!
Because EMF is an event all about learning things and meeting new people we really want to get as many hackerspace members along as possible, so for the next two weeks we're offering a £5 discount off the full ticket price.
The following link will grant a discount to anyone who clicks it for the next two weeks. Pass it around to your members and anyone who might be interested!
