TL;TR: You can mail your stuff by parcel to the camp site and back home again. An FAQ providing info on package delivery can be found on the info pages.

From your place to the camp

Has this ever happened to you? You’re packed and eager to bike to camp. But you must admit: three suitcases and two tents are like really bulky. So you scrounge grandma’s SUV and quickly click a parking ticket. Oh, they cost money, too. So you check for a cheap nearby parking garage, what it costs, how you’re going to haul the stuff to camp, and TOOT: Some train nerds are posting stuffed animals on …

After some years of forced interruption we are happy to organize a (larger) Chaos Event again. In order to make the camp a success, we need your help! Please consider becoming an Angel and support the event by volunteering!

How does this work?

TL;DR

2. If you’d like to help with build-up before the 10.08., please contact us per Mail first and wait for our response.
3. Read the Angel-Guide, especially check our curated packing list.
4. At campsite, get marked as arrived at the Heaven …

The most important bit up front: We will release more tickets, to be sold starting tomorrow, July 11th, 20:00 CEST!

After the last round of ticket sales, we had an unusually large amount of orders that were never paid. Combined with an average ticket price of EUR 376.29 that remained noticeably below our goal of EUR 380, we had hoped for both a fuller camp ground and a less uncomfortable budget. (Remember, we shared our budget and the reason for our ticket prices here.

If we don’t sell out completely on Tuesday, we’ll continue to run a normal presale until all tickets are gone or …

Dear villages,

Since the third and last ticket round ended last Saturday, you should now have a good picture of how many people your village will involve. Also, you should have developed some ideas around now on what you want to do and what you need to bring.

Für Kurzentschlossene (und alle anderen) …

Our reality is undergoing radical transformation. The global climate is changing, and that doesn’t just affect the weather.

The products of machine learning have reached a quality that makes it impossible for most people to distinguish between what is real and what is fake. “Facts” are generated as desired and accompanied by appropriate evidence in words, images and sound. The line between fact and fantasy becomes blurred and is controlled by whoever has the biggest following.

This situation inevitably leads us to the question: Who owns reality?

We are looking for talks and workshops that …

After successfully registering your village (see Call for Villages) and having it confirmed by the village team, you will get access to the village shop. Here you can order a variety of things that will hopefully make it easier for you to build your village. The voucher code for the shop can be found with your registration in the hub.

All orders will be checked and released in the order of their submission.

Articles will be added and updated continuously, please check back regularly.

Some articles require a deposit. This will be payable in the shop and will be returned to you in cash …

All Creatures of the universe are welcome at Chaos Communication Camp. But how to camp with disabilities?

We have made plans, and a lot will be possible. But keep in mind: this is a best effort by volunteers.

Okay, what to expect for accessibility?

• The Grounds:
  • Mildenberg Brickwork Park has info on accessibility. (external link)
  • There will be noise. You should be able to avoid it better this time.
  • There will be gravel paths, guideposts and a map. Tripping hazards or stairs will be few.
  • Loud announcements and flashing lights will alarm you in case of emergencies.
• Service Teams:
  • c3IOC can …

The Call for Particpation has been extended not only in terms of the deadline, but also its scope. We want to inspire you to use the stages for more than just talks! Two new tracks have been added for this purpose: “performance” and “entertainment”. These can include practically anything that can happen on a stage beyond a regular talk (or DJ set).

Among the things we had in previous events were code readings or beautiful Fnords – there also were poetry slams or lyrical code. Games, contests or audio features have been staged regularly. Maybe you would enjoy reenacting your village …

Dear people,

we have received requests – especially from international speakers – to extend the CfP until after the pre-sale rounds. Additionally, some potential submitters wanted to wait to see if they would get a ticket before doing so.

We have therefore decided to extend the Call for Participation. It’s possible that some stages no longer have openings in their schedules and cannot accept any more talks. In this case, submissions will be released to any other stages that have more capacity left.

Get your camp souvenirs in your size now!

For this Chaos Communication Camp, we want to give you the opportunity to buy t-shirts, hoodies, zippers and other camp memorabilia in advance. This is an experiment to make it easier for you to collect clothes of your taste and in your size at the stall later on - without having to wait in the queue for hours shooting fearful glimpse at the residual stock indicator. What’s more, you don’t have to hold on to your scarce cash holdings at the event to buy textiles, but can spend it on drinks and craft kits to your heart’s content.

Music brings us together. Vibrant colors captivate us. The flow3r is an electronic instrument - it turns touch and gesture into sound and light. Its illuminated edge is a mesmerizing accompaniment to its music and serves as a canvas for all manners of light effects. The badge invites you to create art and beauty together.

Programming is primarily done in MicroPython. This makes it easy to directly modify the built-in programs or create completely new ones. The surface can detect touches on all of its petals simultaneously, allowing for a wide range of interactions. The flow3r can be anything …
