I wasn't planning on having a DECT phone for #emfcamp because it seems illogical when I can use my mobile WiFi calling. What am I missing out on if I don't get one? Conscious of buying yet more electronic waste that will sit unused afterwards. But also want to be part of the fun! Sell it to me? Or, not?
@russss@chaos.social how did you end up doing #CO2 monitoring at #emfcamp? Between #fosdem and #eventinfra we are close to spending 10k€ on #airgradient because they do most things right, and we were not able to get our own hardware spun up.
Intention is for everything to go into the eventinfra loan pool so ALL the conferences can monitor their environments.
Before we make that step, we wanted to check if it makes sense to collaborate on fully open hardware, firmware, and software stack instead.

Post-camp planning for 2028 (info team)
We’ve had a get together, looked at your feedback, and worked out what went well and what we’d like to improve on.. and come to the conclusion that we need more than six people on info to take the next steps.
If you did a shift and enjoyed it, or have particular ideas about a Thing, drop us an email and we’ll be in touch.
We are particularly looking for:
- schedule displayers and printers (press button get schedule -thermal print?)
- meet and greeters from villages for newbies, like freshers fair
- Sneakernet (the post), Moist Von Lipwigs this is your calling
If you’re interested, email volunteers@emfcamp.org and use “info” as your subject line.
Those of you who have already been in touch, we see you and you’re already in the pool.
Commitment can be very much physical capacity and spoon-dependent so set your boundaries early and take care of yourself please!

Having my heart torn out all over again with Monkey Cage reboot, seems a good time to share this talk from #emfcamp a few weekends back - I wish I’d talked more about anti trans gaslighting that was relentless used against me and both supported and encouraged from some around the show , but I will soon

Just released Reverie, a browser-based chiptune tracker:
https://github.com/reverietracker/reverie/
https://reverietracker.github.io/
It recently made its first public appearance at the #emfcamp Variety Night, where I demonstrated writing a Spectrum chiptune cover of Call Me Maybe in 10 minutes, and now it's time to unleash it on the world.
Currently it's a clone of ZX Soundtracker (with the one enhancement of supporting dual AY chip Turbosound music) - hopefully it will become a lot more than that. Including absorbing the somewhat-related work I've been doing for the TIC-80...
(Full disclosure, as I realise it's a showstopper for some: some use of Claude here, mostly for debugging and Node package wrangling rather than actual coding.)
Hey it's me on the BBC!
Please note in the background: a tildagon and Shaun the Sheep from #emfcamp, a Gravity Knight from my students, and various political bits like the Working For A Google-Free City poster from Meatspace Press.
@edward@hachyderm.io I just saw your #LightningTalk at #emfCamphttps://media.ccc.de/v/emf2026-376-1-lightning-talks
Well done for managing to fix it!
It's so annoying when supposed experts say they can't fix something that turns out to be relatively simple 😡

Don't know... I know our "in space" landline phone is via #SIP (via the awesome @aaisp@social.aa.net.uk) incoming calls only though. Not sure if any of our folks who went to #EMFCamp took #DECT phones along or not. Will ask and let you know...
Any other #hackspaces or #makespaces interested?
@EEHackSpace@mstdn.social @cheltenham_hackspace@mastodonapp.uk@Glasgow_Hackspace@milliways.social @swanseahackspace@toot.wales@birkenhack@chaos.social
Our space is a bit small to need phones... We usually just open the door between the two halves and speak to each other 😀
Please enjoy this extremely cursed occurrence from #emfcamp teardown
Going back to my day job after working flat out on #emfcamp for two months is *rough*
To anyone who missed Star Reader in the Robot Arms at #emfcamp - now's your chance to play along and solve the puzzles from the comfort of probably not a field!
There were four kinds of secret token to find, hidden about the festival, and each unlocked a distinct animation when brought near the Star Map.
But to start, here's the star map in its default state:
