Location	Note: The location on the map does not represent a reservation of a location and might not represent the actual place, where a assembly can be found. The place can be changed within the form of the assembly by anyone. It will be updated by the assembly itself on day 0 or day 1 as soon as the actual location is known.

Assembly specification	loud place ok, want sit in background, want sit public, want low light
Planning notes	Background means for us we prefer to be placed next to a wall but public, meaning people will be able to meet us while passing by.
past congress review	We had interesting visuals and due to sitting quite in the middle of action we had to display them on the ceiling. We could do that again but we would prefer a wall next to us this time.

We - the CCC Göttingen - want to create an open, cozy forest-style atmosphere with our assembly's design, made for playful souls to gather and hack on stuff, discuss and chill out at:

The Fairy Dust Forest

To create this forest, we'll bring in a 5x5 meters (artificial) grass floor. On top of this, we'll construct a tree - well, it will be recognizable enough as a tree. It's leafs will be paint with UV reflective paint - and we'll bring in UV illumination (stripes, tubes) to make use of that. There'l be a flurry of lights from the mirror balls hanging in the tree! (You might recall the mental picture from certain hacking camp activities.) What is left of wall and ceiling will be used as projection plane for LCD projectors, showing Pixelflut and assorted calm yet interesting light effects. When you visited our "Noklab" assembly last year, you might have seen our augmented reality disco light ceiling!

We'll bring four bean bag chairs, one of them a life size Companion Cube made with plush upholstery! A couch and desk will be provided and there will be some board games - all you need to have a good time for hacking and socializing.

There'll be another desk on which we focus on presenting projects. For the 33c3, the center stage will be claimed by the "Black Box" interactive board game (about 70x70cm). Of course, you can, should and probably will want to play the game. On the other hand, we'll gladly talk to you about creating such a game from scratch - electronics (custom color detection!), programming, wood work. If there's enough interest, we'll do short talks about the aspects. As there are more games you can play on the 8x8 field we built, we expect to be hacking on implementing them.

German version:

Wir - der CCC Göttingen - wollen mit unserem Assemblydesign eine gemütliche Waldatmosphäre für Spielkinder zum Hacken und Chillen schaffen.

The Fairy Dust Forest: Dafür bringen wir einen 5x5 Meter großen wunderschönen Kunstrasen mit. Auf den Rasen bauen wir einen Baum, dessen Blätterkrone mit UV-Farben angemalt ist. UV aktiv bemalte Kunstpflanzen werden an dem Baum befestigt und von Schwarzlichtröhren angestrahlt. UV-LED-Streifen sollen durch die Äste des Baumes gefädelt werden und einzelne LEDs sowie die Punkte einer Spiegelkugel wie kleine Glühwürmchen in der Blätterkrone hängen. Mit Beamern wollen wir die Wände und Decken der Assembly mit Pixelflut und bunten Kacheln beleuchten. An eine Wand stellen wir zwei große, bunte und floureszierende bemalte Platten.

Mit vier großen Outdoor-Sitzsäcken (einem in Form eines lebensgroßen Companion Cubes aus Plüsch), Sofa, Couchtisch und Regal voller Knobel und Gesellschaftsspiele schaffen wir eine gemütliche Atmosphäre zum Spielen und Hacken.

Abgerundet wird das Assembly durch einen dunkler beleuchteten Arbeitstisch, an dem wir unsere Projekte vorstellen wollen. Unser Hauptprojekt stellt dabei die "Black Box" dar: ein selbstgebauter, interaktiver LED-Spieletisch, der zum Programmieren und Knobeln einläd. Anhand des Reflektionsverhaltens von "Lichtstrahlen", die man in die Box schickt, kann man auf den Aufbau unsichtbarer "Moleküle" schließen. Das 8x8 LED-Spielfeld mit Spielsteinerkennung läd darüber hinaus zum Implementieren verschiedener Spiele ein.

Folgendes Foto zeigt den work-in-progress Zustand der Assemblydeko:

Geplant ist noch das Blätterdach des Baumes mit grünen Luftballons auszuschmücken und den Baumstamm sowie die Äste mit Hasendraht und einem Stoff/Paper-Überzug zu modellieren. Es fehlt auch noch ein bisschen was an Deko (Blinkende Ballons, RGB-Lichter, Einhornluftballons, UV-Leuchtende Bilder) und die Beamerinstallationen.

Auf dem Foto nicht zu sehen sind der Couchtisch, das BlackBox-Spiel und ein weiterer Sitzsack. Wir haben insgesamt 5 Sitzsäcke. Weil wir unseren Kunstrasen schonen wollen möchten wir einen neuen Kunstrasen in 4*4 Meter Größe bestellen, es läuft also auf 4*4 Meter, nicht 5*5 Meter, hinaus.
