Just as we had Mission Angels at the 27c3, a brand new team of people to connect you to the camp has emerged from the fairy dust. The Flow Controllers are here to help bring the camp to you! In Kourou and Baikonur, Flow Controllers are monitoring IRC and Twitter, ready to take your questions:
Kourou (Streams are here): #kourou (irc.freenode.net)
#kourou on Twitter
Baikonur (Streams are here): #baikonur (irc.freenode.net)
#baikonur on Twitter
The Flow Controllers would also like more suggestions on how they can better bring the camp to you! Leave a comment on the post, and let your friends know about all the awesome lectures going on at the 2011 CCC Camp!
For your orientation and answering the most frequent questions, we created a nice Campguide.
Included in the Campguide is a map with all the facilities and the larger villages. In the center are the two lecture shelters “Kourou” and “Baikonur” and the “Hackcenter” north of it. In front of the Hackcenter shelter is the “motodrone” located, the area where you can fly your quadcopters or similar objects. Behind the Hackcenter next to the small forest you can find the “Trockendock”, an area with music, lights and bars. South and east of the lecture shelters is the main camping area with a lot of villages. In the West you can find the Workshop shelter “Mojave”, some snack bars and the C.E.R.T. (Chaos Emergency Response Team) for first aid. It’s also the area where it is more silent and best suited for families.
We chose names for the roads, so that you can easily describe your location. West-to-East roads carry names from space scientist, North-to-South roads are named after famous space travelers and in contradiction the diagonal roads carry names from fictional space travelers.
Villages which are not located on the map can choose a free place by their own.
We added two more ticket options for the Chaos Communication Camp 2011:
Day Tickets for 45€
Night Tickets for 20€ (valid from 21:00h)
With those tickets you can visit the Camp, all lectures, workshops and the parties in the evening but you have to leave the campsite before sunrise.
Children under the age of 12 (born after August 10, 1999) get in for free. If you want to take a trip to the Camp and don’t want to leave your family at home, bring them all.
The online shop for Camp tickets will close at 2011/07/20, two days from now.
If you didn’t buy a ticket yet, you should better go to our online shop now and buy one.
Since we don’t know, how many tickets we’ll still have left after online sales, we can’t promise there will be ticket sales at the door. Probably there will be, but if you want to be sure, better buy your tickets now!
You’d like to rent a big tent, chairs, and tables for the Camp and did not tell us yet? Then you need to hurry up. We accept orders from you only until June 9th, and that’s tomorrow. For more details see the Rent a Tent page in the wiki.
We’re selling tickets for the Camp now. For more information, please read the Tickets page in our wiki.
Although the advance sale will be available until July 20th 2011, please order your tickets early. That helps us, because it tells us something about the number of participants and thus enables us to scale infrastructure to your needs.
