The second try to attend a lecture just failed. Now, people are sitting around and listening to the lecture "Absurde Mathemathik" from Anoushirvan Dehghani by a livestream. Unfortunatly, I forgot to bring some headphones and I take advantage of the situation to write down some lines into our logfiles.

Since yesterday, some radical changes took place at the cafeteria - compared with the atmosphere of a railway station all around at bcc. Four (!) green spotlights were added to the orange lamps a slide-projector shows a octopus. Nice.

24C3 Diary of the BlinkenArea

Tag -1 (25.12.2007)

ST:

This year, everything should be very relaxed - at least for me as I decided. The organisers of the congress did not answer any emails containing offers to help, ideas for designing and project conceptions. Thus, there were nothing to prepare in the run-up to the congress - excepting ten blue fluorescent lamps (BlinkenArea Blog - in German) which we were allowed to contribute. Niob and I brought them into the bcc at 1530, checked and stored them in a corner of the hackcenter temporarily. stefan and sphaera had already arrived as well and we threw a glance at the room A04 together, which will be turned into the Hardware Hacking Room during the next days.

Apart from that, we got to see nothing interesting. Some carpet lay in the middle of the room which is called engine room and here and there a few sofas were standing around in the bcc. The upper floors looked the same. Only the POC was built up completely and ready. Business as usual. ;-)

Finally, we cleaned out our cars and started to unpack cased cables, lamps, blinking stuff and our BlinkenArea server. Tomorrow, we will get three special tables for soldering work and we can arrange our room on ourselves. We went home around 0130.

ST:

We arrived at bcc at about 1100. It is a weary atmosphere which does not give the impression of a huge conference which takes part in here tomorrow. We wanted to contribute to the light installation at the hackcenter area but unfortunatley, we did not find anybody responsible for design and light. No coulored foil was available to cover the ceiling lamps and our blue fluorescent lamps had not been moved at all.

Hence, we attend to the BlinkenArea. We arranged tables and chairs, but we did not get any tables to solder on. Furthermore, we installed current and ethernet, decorated the room with different lamps, the "Pesthörnchen" flag and some other light foo.

Dauti and cavac arrived from Austria. The Blink-O-Mat was built up quickly and cavac worked on BlinkenSisters again. Niob, Stefan and I built up ArcadeMaxi, Littlelights, BlinkenLEDs and the BlinkenArea server. Furthermore, we registered our DECT phones at the POC. Towards evening, Arne arrived as well as some people of Das Labor and the Discordian Chaos Lab with a lot of beautyful projects. I am going to report about them within the next days.

Niob:

The second try to attend a lecture just failed. Now, people are sitting around and listening to the lecture "Absurde Mathemathik" from Anoushirvan Dehghani by a livestream. Unfortunatly, I forgot to bring some headphones and I take advantage of the situation to write down some lines into our logfiles.

Since yesterday, some radical changes took place at the cafeteria - compared with the remaining atmosphere of a railway station all around at bcc. Four (!) green spotlights were added to the orange lamps a slide-projector shows a octopus. Nice. In the meantime, one can feel like part of the crew on a submarine waiting for the end to come, because the submarine is not able to come up anymore an on its front window, the octupus settled down. It is very hard to notice something about Full steam ahead!, although the current political situation got explosive and calls for self-engagement since our Federal President Horst Köhler signed the law which enables data retention in Germany without having any reservations related to the constitutional law.
