  Defying predictions I just rode the danger triangle bike through London and didn't have a horrifying accident

  Going back to my day job after working flat out on #emfcamp for two months is *rough*

  Convinced that home assistant is a covert operation to sabotage productivity of people who would otherwise spend weekends inventing things

  Google Earth added a weird "edit with AI" mode, so I fixed the biggest error in London.

  I spy with my satellite eye, something beginning with E. https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/explore?c=-2.3761%2C52.0411&z=14.81&v=2&d=sentinel-2-l2a&m=Most+recent+%28low+cloud%29&r=Natural+color&s=false%3A%3A100%3A%3Atrue&sr=desc&ae=0 #emfcamp

  Renewed my broadband contract and got upgraded to a 2.5gb connection for an extra £1 a month. Send suggestions on how I can possibly try to saturate that connection legally.

  RE: https://chaos.social/@jonty/116969430320624869 Just bought another lidar. I need one stuck in the middle of my monitor.

  I have never, ever seen the EMF team this energised so soon after the event. People are already seriously planning 2028. Slightly terrified. Mostly in awe. #emfcamp

  I got back from the site at 9pm last night. I am hacking on the EMF scheduler, adding features for 2028. What is going on. This has never happened before.

  Would anyone like a sticker because I made way too many stickers

  Re-entry into the real world is always a shock

• Post #4018304

  Suddenly realised we *somehow* managed to build and staff a tiny electronic music jam club *and* a planetarium *and* turned the planetarium into an arts venue with a full lineup of custom content ...in the two weeks before the event opened. And they were SO GOOD. Sometimes there isn't enough time for you to do things. But there is enough time to recruit amazing people who make it their own and do an even better job. #emfcamp

  Have been informed that someone did a 15 minute livecode music set entirely made from an airhorn sound with live Microsoft Paint visuals. I find it hard to explain what the festival we run is about, and may it get ever more difficult to describe. #emfcamp

  RE: https://chaos.social/@jonty/112497344253511508 We apologise for the incorrect forecast. There were a lot more spiders than this.

  Clearly someone didn't take me seriously when I said "If you leave a tent behind I will find you" and decided to up the stakes by *also* leaving a giant pile of crap. The game is afoot. They will regret this.

  We joke about the spiders but it's only during teardown that you discover the sheer number of them lurking on every bit of kit moved #emfcamp

  @prehensile@assemblag.es Don't make me tap the sticker

  Just been informed that the #emfcamp closing ceremony was broadcast via satellite TV across Asia and some of Europe, so that happened.

  Someone gave me an appropriate sign for the bike

  Does anyone have an mp3 player (or mp3 playing capable device) that an installation can borrow for the rest of the event, one of theirs has died #emfcamp

• Post #3882605

  Right. Now I can stop stressing about writing the opening ceremony. And start stressing about writing the closing ceremony. #emfcamp

  Sat working alone in EMF HQ and smashed play on my keyboard. Apple Music opens, an app I never use, and it played seemingly the only thing in my music library - A recording of the Lincolnshire Poacher numbers station. Perfect.

  The problem with getting well known and operating public channels online is that you are now well known and operating public channels online

  In case you're still looking for an #emfcamp ticket there are a bunch listed on the ticket exchange: https://www.emfcamp.org/wiki/ticket-exchange

  Our environmental data feeds from @emf@social.emfcamp.org are now live, this is the spider forecast for next weekend

  An elderly neighbour left a 70 minute butt-dialed voice note on the street chat last night. Its entirely white noise. This is what WhatsApp's "transcribe" feature thinks it says.

  It is not fair that the only way to stop being stressed about doing a thing is to actually do the thing. I would like to lodge a complaint (instead of doing the thing).

  Please back my kickstarter for the "c-stop": A red button that cuts off your c-suite's social media access whenever they are about to post during a crisis and make it worse

  The main reason I can remotely monitor the temperature of my house is to justify staying in this air conditioned pub
