I swear I saw photos of the Electronic Music Open Mic (EMOM) at #emfcamp but now I can't find them. Some from the DJ booth and some from the ground of the other people who played.

Anyone know where they were?

It took someone mentioning how delightfully weird @emf has become for me to see it.

If you took the giant potato home you were gifted a real potato. The fictional village of Bodgeham-on-Wye had a mass campaign to find their cryptid. Someone DJ'd using a pig.

My people.

@emf Back when we decided our small camping trip would actually be a cool hacker festival, I could never have predicted that my favourite thing in 2024 would be a secret escape room in a shipping container about the murder of Microsoft Clippy.

I could not be happier with this result. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Hacker art, innit.

(if I was bored and wanted to write a thesis about something, then that would be it. However, no.)

If you are the person who abandoned a tent full of crap at EMF: We are going to find you.

You have enraged a group of people who enjoy puzzles and suddenly have a lot of free time.

Run.

If anyone has drone photos of Thursday afternoon, specifically covering the area behind stage B, I would really like to see them

Reading the feedback is always hard, but this year that's because its all so lovely I keep getting emotional.

@jonty a bunch of folks I know who came for the first time had an absolute blast and said it blew their already-high expectations out of the water. so much stuff to enjoy, so many amazing people to chat with. everyone really outdid themselves this year.

Well, that went a lot better than expected.

@gsuberland Spoon gauge is likely to remain in the red until I make it home late this week!

gsuberland,
@gsuberland@chaos.social avatar

@jonty definitely understandable. hope it's not too hectic for you though, you deserve one hell of a rest!

Absolutely sure we are the festival with the highest number of attendees who packed a geiger counter though, so it's fine.

Yes I packed my geiger counter.

@jonty - I am relieved to not be the person responsible for any EMF-related radiation incidents.

Could have gone the other way.

To be clear, when we said "leave your unwanted junk in the swap shop" we did not mean radioactive material

"First camping festival with an orphan source event" is not a record I particularly wanted, but it is very on brand

Delighted that people spotted the giant red rabbit I had manufactured and sent down the deepest mine in the UK for a live link up with @emf

This is a good use of my time.

Just received a postcard from myself via @emf post from @mch2022camp last year. I have no memory of sending this.

Anyway, thanks past me.

As ever, things were going relatively well until people showed up

Absolutely delighted by the new @emf volunteer kitchen logo

@jonty @emf but is the Hitachi repair tent logo still intact?

Every hour or so more people arrive, grab high-vis, and ask for things to do. There are hundreds of people frantically working because we decided it might be nice to go camping.

As ever, it feels absurd.

@jonty What a thing. See you later.

A rough 48hrs, but some of the absolute nonsense people have built for @emf is cheering me up.

My favourite so far? A compiler you fax code to.

@jonty not an animal gif but I committed this crime at a family gathering yesterday and the children's minds were blown.
