<hr />
<div>= Publishing Your Village's Schedule =<br />
<br />
If you're running talks, workshops, games, meetups, or anything else they can be added to the online schedule so that people can find them and join in. These instructions will help you get that set up.<br />
<br />
To do that you need an ical feed of your events. If you already know what that is, grab the URL, and add it at [https://www.emfcamp.org/schedule/publish emfcamp.org/schedule/publish]. If you have no idea what that means, read on, its really easy.<br />
<br />
== Creating a Village ==<br />
If you want people to be able to find your events easily you should create a village on the map, which you'll be able to select as the location attached to your calendar feed.<br />
<br />
* Make sure you're logged in to the main website (not the wiki) [https://www.emfcamp.org/account by visiting here].<br />
* Visit [https://map.emfcamp.org/ the map] and click the "+" button.<br />
* Enter your village name and the wiki page name (optional), click "set location" to place your village, and click create.<br />
<br />
You can edit or delete your village on the map at any time by clicking on it.<br />
<br />
== Creating a Feed with Google Calendar ==<br />
<br />
The simplest way to do this is to use Google Calendar, assuming you have a Google account go to [https://calendar.google.com calendar.google.com], you should see something like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:GoogleCalendar.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
Click the + button above "My Calendars" (halfway down the left-hand side), and fill in some details about your village, making sure to set the timezone to GMT+1. Once that's done, add some events to the calendar.<br />
<br />
Once that's done hover over the calendar in the list and click on the menu button to the right of the name.<br />
<br />
[[File:HighlightedMenu.png]]<br />
<br />
Once you open the settings select to enable public sharing:<br />
<br />
[[File:PublicSharing.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
And finally scroll down until you find the "Public address in iCal format" box, and copy the link in there - you can take that link and drop it into [https://www.emfcamp.org/schedule/publish emfcamp.org/schedule/publish]. If the schedule changes, or you have new events, just update your Google Calendar and the schedule will update shortly afterwards.<br />

<div>__NOEDITSECTION__<br />
{{link-banner}}<br />
<br />
==General==<br />
<br />
===Who are you?===<br />
Electromagnetic Field is a non-profit event run entirely by a group of dedicated volunteers. EMF 2018 is the fourth major festival we've held in the UK, and a lot of us also help run other festivals in Germany and the Netherlands.<br />
<br />
===Can I help out?===<br />
EMF is organised entirely by volunteers. The event's success relies on attendees helping out to the extent they are willing.<br />
<br />
More information on helping out during the event will appear on the [[Volunteering]] page in due course. If you are able to help plan and work before the event, check out the [[Teams]] page to see which teams need help.<br />
<br />
===How accessible is EMF?===<br />
We take accessibility very seriously, and we want to let as many people experience the fun of EMF. However, it is ultimately an event in the field, and we can't work miracles with our limited budget.<br />
<br />
The site will be well-lit during the event, and we will aim to cover access to the stages with trackway. Travelling between stages may take some time. There will be accessible toilets and the current plan includes an accessible shower with a wheelchair ramp. We cannot guarantee 24/7 power, so it must not be relied on for medical needs, but the power infrastructure team will be on call through the night.<br />
<br />
If you will be attending with a carer, they are entitled to a free ticket. Please [mailto:[email address removed] email us] once you've got your ticket so we can allocate your carer a ticket. Registered assistance dogs will be allowed. <br />
<br />
If you have any other accessibility concerns, please [mailto:[email address removed] drop us an email].<br />
<br />
===Is EMF family-friendly?===<br />
Yes! We want EMF to be a great event for hackers of all ages.<br />
<br />
We will have free childcare provided by the award-winning [https://www.nipperbout.com/ Nipperbout], which was exceedingly well-received in 2014 and 2016. You don’t need to register in advance for childcare, just turn up. There will be a designated family camping area, and a whole track of events and workshops for young people.<br />
<br />
EMF has a comprehensive lost-child policy with DBS-checked staff available to help out.<br />
<br />
There are a number of things to bear in mind:<br />
* Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.<br />
* There will be dangerous things on site, but they will be clearly marked.<br />
* Licensed alcohol sales are only for people of age 18 and over. Bar staff will ask for ID.<br />
<br />
===How old do you have to be to attend EMF by yourself?===<br />
You need to be 16 or over on August 30th, 2018 to attend EMF without an adult.<br />
<br />
==Ticket Sales==<br />
===What does the ticket price include?===<br />
The ticket price includes admission to the event, admission to all of the talks, and most of the workshops. Some workshop organisers charge a fee in order to cover material costs, and places on most workshops will be limited.<br />
<br />
Your ticket also includes:<br />
* Tent pitch<br />
* Water<br />
* Showers & Toilets<br />
* [[Network|Fast internet]]<br />
* Electricity<br />
<br />
===Can I bring a caravan/camper van?===<br />
Yes, we will have a dedicated camper van area on site, within the main fence, with 16A power provided. You'll need to buy an additional camper van ticket.<br />
<br />
If you are coming with a caravan, parking for your towing car in the car park is included.<br />
<br />
Please try to arrive before midday on Friday and leave after midday on Monday to reduce traffic movements on site. If you're planning on leaving earlier, please let us know when you arrive so we can park you close to the exit.<br />
<br />
We unfortunately can't provide water hookups or drainage/emptying facilities. You will not be able to empty your tank during the event.<br />
<br />
===If I tow a caravan with a campervan, will I need a ticket for each?===<br />
<br />
Yes. <br />
<br />
(Somehow this is actually a frequently asked question!)<br />
<br />
===Do volunteers get a free ticket?===<br />
Everyone who attends is expected to buy a ticket, including the founders and the core organisation team. So many people contribute to running EMF that it would be financially impossible to give everyone who helps out a free ticket, and unfair to draw a line past which volunteers receive free tickets.<br />
<br />
The sole exception to this rule are first aiders, who must be trained to the high standards of our first aid team, and are expected to carry out three eight-hour shifts in return for a free ticket.<br />
<br />
===The transaction reference you've provided isn't accepted by my bank!===<br />
If you are having trouble entering the transaction reference into your online banking, just remove the hyphen. Some banks don't like it and don't tell you why.<br />
<br />
===Can I transfer tickets to someone else?===<br />
<br />
Yes - once you've bought a ticket you can transfer it to someone else by entering their email address on our site. We recommend you do this if you're buying tickets for other people, so that they can receive updates directly from us.<br />
<br />
We would kindly request that you don't sell tickets to other people for more than the price you paid for them.<br />
<br />
You can find people who may be interested in getting your ticket at [[Ticket_Exchange]].<br />
<br />
===Can I get a refund?===<br />
<br />
We may consider issuing refunds to those who can't attend if the event sells out. We will not issue refunds for any reason before then. (However, you can sell your ticket on to someone else - see above.)<br />
<br />
===Why do you sell tickets in such annoyingly small batches?===<br />
<br />
Because we don't want to take more of your money than necessary.<br />
<br />
EMF is a non-profit, and we aim to end the event with enough surplus to let us comfortably run the next event, but not too much more. The budget for EMF isn't solid until about six months prior to the event (especially when we've moved to a new site) but we need cash earlier in order to pay deposits to key suppliers. These secure important things like toilets, temporary structures, and the site itself.<br />
<br />
If we were to put all of our tickets on sale early, we would have to set ticket prices higher in order to make provision for potential budget changes. By selling smaller batches earlier, we ensure everyone's ticket is the best value, and that as many people as possible can have the chance to attend EMF.<br />
<br />
===Why have I received one barcoded ticket for x people?===<br />
This is intended, when scanned on the gate the number of tickets used and unused for that barcode will be shown. For people arriving separately, you can either send them a copy of the PDF for use on the gate, or use the transfer tickets option (''preferred'') on the [https://www.emfcamp.org/account/purchases My Account] section of the website to transfer tickets to other people. Doing so will also allow them to receive EMF email communications and use website features that require authentication such as volunteering, customising your event schedule, or adding village/side events to the festival schedule.<br />
<br />
==Planning your Attendance==<br />
===Where is it?===<br />
The EMF site is Eastnor Castle Deer Park, located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire. <br />
<br />
===How can I get there?===<br />
See [[Travel]] for more details<br />
<br />
=== Can someone take me there? ===<br />
<br />
See the [[Travel#Carpooling]] section of the [[Travel]] page<br />
<br />
===When can I arrive? When do I have to leave by?===<br />
The site will open to ticket holders on Thursday at 4pm. All ticket holders must leave the site by noon (12pm) on Monday. Talks and workshops won't start until after midday on the Friday so there's plenty of time to arrive on Friday morning.<br />
<br />
We will be there before and afterwards setting up and packing up. If you want to help with this, please let us know (by emailing [mailto:[email address removed] [email address removed]]) and we'll let you know when you can turn up. If we have not confirmed that we're expecting you before or after the event you will not be admitted to the site. '''Anyone arriving before Friday morning or staying beyond Monday afternoon will be expected to help with set-up and tear-down (both of which are mostly manual labour).''' Fewer facilities (eg, no food outlets) will be available on site prior to Friday.<br />
<br />
===Can I turn up early to help with Build Up?===<br />
No you may not. We already have a full allocation for build up. Due to insurance reasons, and not having enough basic facilities and food, unless you are part of the main Orga team, or have been authorised by a Team Lead, you will be not be let into the site until Thursday 4pm.<br />
<br />
===When do things kick off?===<br />
The talks and workshops will begin after lunch on Friday, although people will be setting up earlier in the day.<br />
<br />
Talks and workshops run daily through to the evening, although we expect villages will be doing things late into the night! The last talks will finish on Sunday evening by 9pm.<br />
<br />
===Can I camp in the campervan area?===<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
People with campervans can pitch an awning or small tent beside their vehicle but to comply with fire and safety regulations we can't allow people to set up camp there. <br />
<br />
If you have friends in the campervan area we suggest you camp in areas G or F which are adjacent.<br />
<br />
===What's the mobile phone coverage like?===<br />
<br />
Mobile phone (a.k.a. cellphone) coverage is almost non-existent. Of all the carriers, Vodafone seems to be the best, with some signal in some areas - but with 2,500 more people on site there are no guarantees it will work at all.<br />
<br />
Basically, you should expect to have no reception across most of the site and most of the time.<br />
<br />
For data, that's no problem thanks to the [[Network|excellent WiFi]] across the site. If you need to be reachable by phone during the event, your best options are:<br />
<br />
* Use a SIP/VoIP app on your smartphone over the wifi.<br />
* Bring a DECT phone to connect to the [[DECT|DECT network]]. There will hopefully be a way to get yourself an external phone number to your DECT phone or for outside callers to dial an extension number to reach you.<br />
* Some networks, such as Three Mobile, support WiFi calling. This often requires activating in an area with mobile phone coverage, so it’s worth doing this before arriving.<br />
<br />
===Will there be a bar?===<br />
Yes, we'll be running a volunteer-staffed licensed bar selling beer and wine, as well as soft drinks and the hacker energy drink Club Mate. Far from the usual crap festival beer, we will be serving real ale from local breweries with all profits going towards making the next iteration of Electromagnetic Field more awesome.<br />
<br />
The bar will be open 11am-2am Friday-Saturday, 11am-1am Sunday. Closing times may be earlier subject to demand and volunteer availability.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring pets?===<br />
Sorry, animals (except registered assistance animals) are not allowed.<br />
<br />
===Can I smoke?===<br />
Smoking (including vaping) is not allowed in any of the event tents or in the food/bar area. Elsewhere, please be considerate and very careful to extinguish your cigarettes to avoid setting the dry grass on fire. Please make sure cigarette butts are disposed of in rubbish bins rather than just thrown on the ground as the site is used by livestock at other times of the year, and it's a pain for the clean up crew to pick them up after the camp is over!<br />
<br />
===Can I bring X/Y/Z?===<br />
tl;dr Probably<br />
<br />
Please let us know if it's going to be large/tall/use a lot of power/be noisy or anything else you think we should know. We don't want to stop people bringing the latest cool laser helmet for shark 3D printer arduino-powered UAV thing, but we need to plan for it.<br />
<br />
Things requiring special permission and may not be allowed: balloons, sky lanterns and the like.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring/fly my drone?===<br />
Yes - lots of attendees will be bringing drones and there will be a dedicated UAV flying field. It is against UK law to fly drones over the campsite unless you hold permission from the UK Civil Aviation Authority. EMF will be enforcing this rule, and for safety we will not allow UAVs to be flown over the site without prior arrangement.<br />
<br />
===What power connectors will be available?===<br />
Mostly 16A IEC309 ('Ceeform'/'Caravan') connectors although there will be some 13A UK sockets. See the [[Power|power page]] for more information.<br />
<br />
===What if I don't like camping?===<br />
Whilst we'd strongly recommend camping (so much happens late into the evening and it's a lot more fun) we realise not everyone wants to. There are several hotels in Ledbury.<br />
<br />
===What food will be available?===<br />
There will be several food vendors on site, and volunteers will receive an excellent meal good by our caterers for each volunteer shift they complete.<br />
<br />
===Do I need to bring cash?===<br />
The bar will take cards, and offer cashback on purchases, but there will be no cashpoints on site. We don't know whether the food vendors will take cards, and some villages will also be running paid-for workshops where you shouldn't expect to be able to pay by card.<br />
<br />
===What are villages?===<br />
[[Villages]] are areas of the campsite self-organised by attendees. The idea is that like-minded people get together, set up in an area of the campsite and enjoy each other's company. Villages are often set up around a topic or existing group (e.g. lock-picking or a hackspace). Some of them will run their own events parallel to the main schedule (for example last year one village hosted a weekend-long LAN party whilst another ran workshops on ring-making).<br />
<br />
If you want to find out more, or see which villages are already proposed see the [[Villages| villages page]]<br />
<br />
You don't need to join a village to attend.<br />
<br />
==At the Event==<br />
===How do I connect to the wifi?===<br />
Unless you know of a reason not to, you should connect to the emfcamp network if your device can see it, or emfcamp-legacy18 if not. You'll be prompted for a username and password - you can provide any value you like, but the following have special behaviour if you use them as both the username and password:<br />
<br />
'''emf''' - Assigns a public IP address to your device. This will make it accessible to any user on the internet, so please take extra care to ensure your firewall is active, and operating system is up to date.<br />
<br />
'''outboundonly''' - Allows only outbound traffic, similar to having your device on a typical coffee shop network. This will provide a bit of extra security, and potentially save battery life.<br />
<br />
'''internetofstuff''' - Allows inbound traffic, but only from the camp network. This is specifically intended for devices you'd like to share access to with attendees, but don't want exposed to the internet at large.<br />
<br />
If you're unable to connect to either emfcamp or emfcamp-leagcy18, or have other interesting requirements, see [[https://wiki.emfcamp.org/wiki/Network#Wireless this page]] for further details.<br />
<br />
===Can I attach a hammock, slackline, or other things, to the trees?===<br />
Nope. The site owners are very protective about them and have specified that we don't attach anything to them.<br />
<br />
===Can I light a fire or BBQ?===<br />
Yes as long as its contained and raised off of the ground so that the grass/ground arent burnt/scorched etc.</div>Jonwoodhttps://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2018/w/index.php?title=FAQ&diff=3937FAQ2018-08-30T13:58:48Z<p>Jonwood: FAQ on the most common way to connect to wifi</p>

* Water<br />
* Showers & Toilets<br />
* [[Network|Fast internet]]<br />
* Electricity<br />
<br />
===Can I bring a caravan/camper van?===<br />
Yes, we will have a dedicated camper van area on site, within the main fence, with 16A power provided. You'll need to buy an additional camper van ticket.<br />
<br />
If you are coming with a caravan, parking for your towing car in the car park is included.<br />
<br />
Please try to arrive before midday on Friday and leave after midday on Monday to reduce traffic movements on site. If you're planning on leaving earlier, please let us know when you arrive so we can park you close to the exit.<br />
<br />
We unfortunately can't provide water hookups or drainage/emptying facilities. You will not be able to empty your tank during the event.<br />
<br />
===If I tow a caravan with a campervan, will I need a ticket for each?===<br />
<br />
Yes. <br />
<br />
(Somehow this is actually a frequently asked question!)<br />
<br />
===Do volunteers get a free ticket?===<br />
Everyone who attends is expected to buy a ticket, including the founders and the core organisation team. So many people contribute to running EMF that it would be financially impossible to give everyone who helps out a free ticket, and unfair to draw a line past which volunteers receive free tickets.<br />
<br />
The sole exception to this rule are first aiders, who must be trained to the high standards of our first aid team, and are expected to carry out three eight-hour shifts in return for a free ticket.<br />
<br />
===The transaction reference you've provided isn't accepted by my bank!===<br />
If you are having trouble entering the transaction reference into your online banking, just remove the hyphen. Some banks don't like it and don't tell you why.<br />
<br />
===Can I transfer tickets to someone else?===<br />
<br />
Yes - once you've bought a ticket you can transfer it to someone else by entering their email address on our site. We recommend you do this if you're buying tickets for other people, so that they can receive updates directly from us.<br />
<br />
We would kindly request that you don't sell tickets to other people for more than the price you paid for them.<br />
<br />
You can find people who may be interested in getting your ticket at [[Ticket_Exchange]].<br />
<br />
===Can I get a refund?===<br />
<br />
We may consider issuing refunds to those who can't attend if the event sells out. We will not issue refunds for any reason before then. (However, you can sell your ticket on to someone else - see above.)<br />
<br />
===Why do you sell tickets in such annoyingly small batches?===<br />
<br />
Because we don't want to take more of your money than necessary.<br />
<br />
EMF is a non-profit, and we aim to end the event with enough surplus to let us comfortably run the next event, but not too much more. The budget for EMF isn't solid until about six months prior to the event (especially when we've moved to a new site) but we need cash earlier in order to pay deposits to key suppliers. These secure important things like toilets, temporary structures, and the site itself.<br />
<br />
If we were to put all of our tickets on sale early, we would have to set ticket prices higher in order to make provision for potential budget changes. By selling smaller batches earlier, we ensure everyone's ticket is the best value, and that as many people as possible can have the chance to attend EMF.<br />
<br />
===Why have I received one barcoded ticket for x people?===<br />
This is intended, when scanned on the gate the number of tickets used and unused for that barcode will be shown. For people arriving separately, you can either send them a copy of the PDF for use on the gate, or use the transfer tickets option (''preferred'') on the [https://www.emfcamp.org/account/purchases My Account] section of the website to transfer tickets to other people. Doing so will also allow them to receive EMF email communications and use website features that require authentication such as volunteering, customising your event schedule, or adding village/side events to the festival schedule.<br />
<br />
==Planning your Attendance==<br />
===Where is it?===<br />
The EMF site is Eastnor Castle Deer Park, located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire. <br />
<br />
===How can I get there?===<br />
See [[Travel]] for more details<br />
<br />
=== Can someone take me there? ===<br />
<br />
See the [[Travel#Carpooling]] section of the [[Travel]] page<br />
<br />
===When can I arrive? When do I have to leave by?===<br />
The site will open to ticket holders on Thursday at 4pm. All ticket holders must leave the site by noon (12pm) on Monday. Talks and workshops won't start until after midday on the Friday so there's plenty of time to arrive on Friday morning.<br />
<br />
We will be there before and afterwards setting up and packing up. If you want to help with this, please let us know (by emailing [mailto:[email address removed] [email address removed]]) and we'll let you know when you can turn up. If we have not confirmed that we're expecting you before or after the event you will not be admitted to the site. '''Anyone arriving before Friday morning or staying beyond Monday afternoon will be expected to help with set-up and tear-down (both of which are mostly manual labour).''' Fewer facilities (eg, no food outlets) will be available on site prior to Friday.<br />
<br />
===Can I turn up early to help with Build Up?===<br />
No you may not. We already have a full allocation for build up. Due to insurance reasons, and not having enough basic facilities and food, unless you are part of the main Orga team, or have been authorised by a Team Lead, you will be not be let into the site until Thursday 4pm.<br />
<br />
===When do things kick off?===<br />
The talks and workshops will begin after lunch on Friday, although people will be setting up earlier in the day.<br />
<br />
Talks and workshops run daily through to the evening, although we expect villages will be doing things late into the night! The last talks will finish on Sunday evening by 9pm.<br />
<br />
===Can I camp in the campervan area?===<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
People with campervans can pitch an awning or small tent beside their vehicle but to comply with fire and safety regulations we can't allow people to set up camp there. <br />
<br />
If you have friends in the campervan area we suggest you camp in areas G or F which are adjacent.<br />
<br />
===What's the mobile phone coverage like?===<br />
<br />
Mobile phone (a.k.a. cellphone) coverage is almost non-existent. Of all the carriers, Vodafone seems to be the best, with some signal in some areas - but with 2,500 more people on site there are no guarantees it will work at all.<br />
<br />
Basically, you should expect to have no reception across most of the site and most of the time.<br />
<br />
For data, that's no problem thanks to the [[Network|excellent WiFi]] across the site. If you need to be reachable by phone during the event, your best options are:<br />
<br />
* Use a SIP/VoIP app on your smartphone over the wifi.<br />
* Bring a DECT phone to connect to the [[DECT|DECT network]]. There will hopefully be a way to get yourself an external phone number to your DECT phone or for outside callers to dial an extension number to reach you.<br />
* Some networks, such as Three Mobile, support WiFi calling. This often requires activating in an area with mobile phone coverage, so it’s worth doing this before arriving.<br />
<br />
===Will there be a bar?===<br />
Yes, we'll be running a volunteer-staffed licensed bar selling beer and wine, as well as soft drinks and the hacker energy drink Club Mate. Far from the usual crap festival beer, we will be serving real ale from local breweries with all profits going towards making the next iteration of Electromagnetic Field more awesome.<br />
<br />
The bar will be open 11am-2am Friday-Saturday, 11am-1am Sunday. Closing times may be earlier subject to demand and volunteer availability.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring pets?===<br />
Sorry, animals (except registered assistance animals) are not allowed.<br />
<br />
===Can I smoke?===<br />
Smoking (including vaping) is not allowed in any of the event tents or in the food/bar area. Elsewhere, please be considerate and very careful to extinguish your cigarettes to avoid setting the dry grass on fire. Please make sure cigarette butts are disposed of in rubbish bins rather than just thrown on the ground as the site is used by livestock at other times of the year, and it's a pain for the clean up crew to pick them up after the camp is over!<br />
<br />
===Can I bring X/Y/Z?===<br />
tl;dr Probably<br />
<br />
Please let us know if it's going to be large/tall/use a lot of power/be noisy or anything else you think we should know. We don't want to stop people bringing the latest cool laser helmet for shark 3D printer arduino-powered UAV thing, but we need to plan for it.<br />
<br />
Things requiring special permission and may not be allowed: balloons, sky lanterns and the like.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring/fly my drone?===<br />
Yes - lots of attendees will be bringing drones and there will be a dedicated UAV flying field. It is against UK law to fly drones over the campsite unless you hold permission from the UK Civil Aviation Authority. EMF will be enforcing this rule, and for safety we will not allow UAVs to be flown over the site without prior arrangement.<br />
<br />
===What power connectors will be available?===<br />
Mostly 16A IEC309 ('Ceeform'/'Caravan') connectors although there will be some 13A UK sockets. See the [[Power|power page]] for more information.<br />
<br />
===What if I don't like camping?===<br />
Whilst we'd strongly recommend camping (so much happens late into the evening and it's a lot more fun) we realise not everyone wants to. There are several hotels in Ledbury.<br />
<br />
===What food will be available?===<br />
There will be several food vendors on site, and volunteers will receive an excellent meal good by our caterers for each volunteer shift they complete.<br />
<br />
===Do I need to bring cash?===<br />
The bar will take cards, and offer cashback on purchases, but there will be no cashpoints on site. We don't know whether the food vendors will take cards, and some villages will also be running paid-for workshops where you shouldn't expect to be able to pay by card.<br />
<br />
===What are villages?===<br />
[[Villages]] are areas of the campsite self-organised by attendees. The idea is that like-minded people get together, set up in an area of the campsite and enjoy each other's company. Villages are often set up around a topic or existing group (e.g. lock-picking or a hackspace). Some of them will run their own events parallel to the main schedule (for example last year one village hosted a weekend-long LAN party whilst another ran workshops on ring-making).<br />
<br />
If you want to find out more, or see which villages are already proposed see the [[Villages| villages page]]<br />
<br />
You don't need to join a village to attend.<br />
<br />
==At the Event==<br />
===How do I connect to the wifi?===<br />
Unless you know of a reason not to, you should connect to the emfcamp network if your device can see it, or emfcamp-legacy18 if not. You'll be prompted for a username and password - you can provide any value you like, but the following have special behaviour if you use them as both the username and password:<br />
<br />
*emf* - Assigns a public IP address to your device. This will make it accessible to any user on the internet, so please take extra care to ensure your firewall is active, and operating system is up to date.<br />
<br />
*outboundonly* - Allows only outbound traffic, similar to having your device on a typical coffee shop network. This will provide a bit of extra security, and potentially save battery life.<br />
<br />
*internetofstuff* - Allows inbound traffic, but only from the camp network. This is specifically intended for devices you'd like to share access to with attendees, but don't want exposed to the internet at large.<br />
<br />
If you're unable to connect to either emfcamp or emfcamp-leagcy18, or have other interesting requirements, see [[https://wiki.emfcamp.org/wiki/Network#Wireless this page]] for further details.<br />
<br />
===Can I attach a hammock, slackline, or other things, to the trees?===<br />
Nope. The site owners are very protective about them and have specified that we don't attach anything to them.<br />
<br />
===Can I light a fire or BBQ?===<br />
Yes as long as its contained and raised off of the ground so that the grass/ground arent burnt/scorched etc.</div>Jonwoodhttps://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2018/w/index.php?title=Phones&diff=3886Phones2018-08-29T22:00:12Z<p>Jonwood: </p>
<hr />
<div>== Overview ==<br />
The Phone Operation Center (powered by [https://www.eventphone.de/ Eventphone]) will be present at the EMF Camp this year with a mobile DECT system and phone infrastructure. <br />
<br />
After setting up many base stations most of the EMF is covered by DECT mobile telephony reception. <br />
<br />
You can bring your own DECT phone and register it at the EMF. So you will be able to call other EMF participants for free.<br />
<br />
Use the [https://eventphone.de/doku/dect_phone_compatibility_list_v2:start DECT Phone Compatibility List] to find out if a phone is known as definitely working or definitely not working.<br />
<br />
This year will be the first EMF with Eventphone.<br />
<br />
== Registration ==<br />
<br />
To secure your personal extension in advance please signup and register your DECT/SIP/GSM extension<br />
[https://guru3.eventphone.de/event/66/select.exe?name=electromagnetic-field-2018 here].<br />
<br />
== Dialin ==<br />
<br />
For External Dial In you have 2 options;<br />
<br />
Callers can dial 07520 660 900, you will then get dialtone and can dial any number as if you were on site (no external access to dial back out though!)<br />
<br />
If you would like to have your own direct dial number we can offer this with the help of our sponsor Nexmo<br />
<br />
#) If you don't already have one signup for an account at [https://dashboard.nexmo.com/sign-up nexmo.com]<br />
#) In your account dashboard add the coupon code CFMEAC18<br />
#) Now purchase a number in your desired country<br />
#) Configure the Voice setting for that number as `Forward to SIP` at [YOUR EXTENSION]@voip.eventphone.de<br />
<br />
== Dialout ==<br />
<br />
You can dial external numbers in UK, USA and Europe, If you need another country opened up please come and see us in the Badge Tent.<br />
<br />
UK Numbers can be dialed in their regular national format eg 07700 900000.<br />
<br />
International numbers can be dialled with a + or 00 prefix followed by the international number, eg for the USA +1 212 555 1212 or 001 212 555 1212<br />
<br />
Optionally you can prefix external numbers with a 9 if you like that sort of thing.<br />
<br />
== DECT ==<br />
<br />
If you've brought along a DECT phone then you can add it to the site wide DECT network that [[https://eventphone.de Eventphone]] are bringing with them.<br />
<br />
To do so, follow these steps:<br />
<br />
1. Sign up for an account at https://guru3.eventphone.de/ - the login/signup button is the non-obvious arrow pointing at a square in the top right.<br />
<br />
2. Select "My Extensions" and then "Add Extension", then "Add Extension for Electromagnetic Field 2018"<br />
<br />
3. Select "DECT Handset" as the type, and then fill in the other details.<br />
<br />
4. You should now see your extension listed under "My Extensions".<br />
<br />
5. Find the "Register" option in your phone's menus. This varies between models, so you'll have to find it yourself.<br />
<br />
6. Once your phone is registered with the network, click the key icon next to your extension and call the number listed.<br />
<br />
7. You're now on the event phone network!<br />
<br />
== SIP ==<br />
<br />
=====SIP Server-Settings=====<br />

(Menu->My Extensions->key icon of your VoIP number)<br />
<br />
'''Hint:''' Extensions are being installed automatically every few minutes during the event. Please wait a few minutes after creating your SIP extension.<br />
<br />
All DECT-phones and other extensions are reachable via sip:[email address removed]<br />
<br />
=====Software=====<br />
For a list of SIP Software Clients, please refer to http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Open+Source+VOIP+Software<br />
<br />
== GSM ==<br />
<br />
===SIMs===<br />
All attendees will get one SIM with their badge courtesy of [https://hologram.io Hologram] This will work with the on site network during camp for Voice and SMS. After camp you can register the SIM with hologram and use it as an IoT sim for SMS & Data.<br />
<br />
If you need an additional SIM please come to the badge tent and ask, we have a limted additional stock so we might ask what you require a 2nd one for.<br />
<br />
===Coverage===<br />
We are aiming to provide the best coverage we can, however we only have 16 GSM base stations and these are running at very low power, signal inside things like temporary buildings may well be weak.<br />
We are hoping to post a coverage map here once the network is installed. <br />
This is the first time we have run this setup on this kind of scale therefore we will be optimising it as best we can across the weekend.<br />
<br />
The proposed locations and CellID's of each BTS is as follows: (Note: this may change once we get on site to install them)<br />

===Handovers===<br />
At present the GSM system does not support the handover of an active call, so if you are on the phone STAND STILL! if you go too far from the base station you started the call on it will likely drop. We hope to work further on this but it may well require additional hardware.<br />
<br />
== After EMF ==<br />
If you don't need your DECT phone anymore after EMF consider giving it to the POC for organizing future events.<br />

At present the GSM system does not support the handover of an active call, so if you are on the phone STAND STILL! if you go too far from the base station you started the call on it will likely drop. We hope to work further on this but it may well require additional hardware.<br />

<hr />
<div>== Overview ==<br />
The Phone Operation Center (powered by [https://www.eventphone.de/ Eventphone]) will be present at the EMF Camp this year with a mobile DECT system and phone infrastructure. <br />
<br />
After setting up many base stations most of the EMF is covered by DECT mobile telephony reception. <br />
<br />
You can bring your own DECT phone and register it at the EMF. So you will be able to call other EMF participants for free.<br />
<br />
Use the [https://eventphone.de/doku/dect_phone_compatibility_list_v2:start DECT Phone Compatibility List] to find out if a phone is known as definitely working or definitely not working.<br />
<br />
This year will be the first EMF with Eventphone.<br />
<br />
== Registration ==<br />
<br />
To secure your personal extension in advance please signup and register your DECT/SIP/GSM extension<br />
[https://guru3.eventphone.de/event/66/select.exe?name=electromagnetic-field-2018 here].<br />
<br />
== Dialin ==<br />
<br />
For External Dial In you have 2 options;<br />
<br />
Callers can dial 07520 660 900, you will then get dialtone and can dial any number as if you were on site (no external access to dial back out though!)<br />
<br />
If you would like to have your own direct dial number we can offer this with the help of our sponsor Nexmo<br />
<br />
#) If you don't already have one signup for an account at [https://dashboard.nexmo.com/sign-up nexmo.com]<br />
#) In your account dashboard add the coupon code CFMEAC18<br />
#) Now purchase a number in your desired country<br />
#) Configure the Voice setting for that number as `Forward to SIP` at [YOUR EXTENSION]@voip.eventphone.de<br />
<br />
== Dialout ==<br />
<br />
You can dial external numbers in UK, USA and Europe, If you need another country opened up please come and see us in the Badge Tent.<br />
<br />
UK Numbers can be dialed in their regular national format eg 07700 900000.<br />
<br />
International numbers can be dialled with a + or 00 prefix followed by the international number, eg for the USA +1 212 555 1212 or 001 212 555 1212<br />
<br />
Optionally you can prefix external numbers with a 9 if you like that sort of thing.<br />
<br />
== DECT ==<br />
<br />
== DECT ==<br />
<br />
If you've brought allow a DECT phone then you can add it to the site wide DECT network that [[https://eventphone.de Eventphone]] are bringing with them.<br />
<br />
To do so, follow these steps:<br />
<br />
1. Sign up for an account at https://guru3.eventphone.de/ - the login/signup button is the non-obvious arrow pointing at a square in the top right.<br />
2. Select "My Extensions" and then "Add Extension", then "Add Extension for Electromagnetic Field 2018"<br />
3. Select "DECT Handset" as the type, and then fill in the other details.<br />
4. You should now see your extension listed under "My Extensions".<br />
5. Find the "Register" option in your phone's menus. This varies between models, so you'll have to find it yourself.<br />
6. Once your phone is registered with the network, click the key icon next to your extension and call the number listed.<br />
7. You're now on the event phone network!<br />
<br />
== SIP ==<br />
<br />
=====SIP Server-Settings=====<br />
Server: voip.eventphone.de<br />
Authentication Realm: voip.eventphone.de<br />
Username: Your SIP number<br />
<br />
Password: look it up in the [[https://guru3.eventphone.de/event/66/select.exe?name=electromagnetic-field-2018 GenericUserRegistrationUtility3]] (Guru3)\\<br />
(Menu->My Extensions->key icon of your VoIP number)<br />
<br />
'''Hint:''' Extensions are being installed automatically every few minutes during the event. Please wait a few minutes after creating your SIP extension.<br />
<br />
All DECT-phones and other extensions are reachable via sip:[email address removed]<br />
<br />
=====Software=====<br />
For a list of SIP Software Clients, please refer to http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Open+Source+VOIP+Software<br />
<br />
== GSM ==<br />
<br />
===SIMs===<br />
All attendees will get one SIM with their badge courtesy of [https://hologram.io Hologram] This will work with the on site network during camp for Voice and SMS. After camp you can register the SIM with hologram and use it as an IoT sim for SMS & Data.<br />
<br />
If you need an additional SIM please come to the badge tent and ask, we have a limted additional stock so we might ask what you require a 2nd one for.<br />
<br />
===Coverage===<br />
We are aiming to provide the best coverage we can, however we only have 16 GSM base stations and these are running at very low power, signal inside things like temporary buildings may well be weak.<br />
We are hoping to post a coverage map here once the network is installed. <br />
This is the first time we have run this setup on this kind of scale therefore we will be optimising it as best we can across the weekend.<br />
<br />
The proposed locations and CellID's of each BTS is as follows: (Note: this may change once we get on site to install them)<br />

<hr />
<div>The EMF2018 site is [[Location|Eastnor Castle Deer Park]], located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire. <br />
<br />
== Public transport ==<br />
<br />
=== Train 🚂 ===<br />
We are close to '''Ledbury''' station which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/londonpaddington/ledbury/ three hours] direct from London Paddington (on [https://www.gwr.com/ GWR]) and [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghamnewstreet/ledbury/ one hour] from Birmingham New Street (on [https://www.westmidlandsrailway.co.uk/ West Midlands Railway]). <br />
<br />
As of June 18th, tickets from Paddington are currently as cheap as £12 return. If you buy a ticket on the day, the price will be £55-89 return depending on your time of travel.<br />
<br />
Ledbury station to the EMF site is around 5km or 10 mins drive. We will be providing a complimentary shuttle bus service between Ledbury station and the EMF site, starting at 9am on Friday 31st, with the last bus leaving at 12:30 on Monday 3rd. Please stay tuned for further details on timings.<br />
<br />
=== Air ✈️ ===<br />
<br />
The closest major airport is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Airport Birmingham ✈(BHX)], which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghaminternational/ledbury/ 1hr40] by train to Ledbury station; or an hour by road.<br />
<br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Airport Bristol ✈(BRS)] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff_Airport Cardiff ✈(CWL)] are around 1hr40 by road, but poorly connected by public transport.<br />
<br />
For those travelling long-haul, BHX is likely to be be most useful followed by LHR.<br />
<br />
== Driving 🚗 ==<br />
<br />
=== Getting here ===<br />
If you plan to drive, you will need to buy a parking ticket (£15) or campervan ticket (£40) available [https://www.emfcamp.org/tickets/other here]. Motorcycles do not require a parking ticket.<br />
<br />
The site is around 13 mins drive from the M50 Junction 2.<br />
<br />
Plan your travel to the south gate (adjacent to A438) - postcode '''HR8 1RQ''' should get you there. The entrance to the site is '''52°01'56"N 2°23'01"W''' / '''OS Grid SO 738 372'''.<br />
<br />
Once you leave the motorway, follow the yellow AA signs to EMF, ignoring your sat nav which may try to take you through the town.<br />
<br />

<div>= Publishing Your Village's Schedule =<br />
<br />
For villages running talks, workshops, games, meetups, or anything else they can be added to the online schedule so that people can find them and join in. These instructions will help you get that set up.<br />
<br />
To do that you need an ical feed of your events. If you already know what that is, grab the URL, and add it at [[InsertURLHere]]. If you have no idea what that means, read on, its really easy.<br />
<br />
== Creating a Feed with Google Calendar ==<br />
<br />
The simplest way to do this is to use Google Calendar, assuming you have a Google account go to [[https://calendar.google.com]], you should see something like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:GoogleCalendar.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
Click the + button above "My Calendars", and fill in some details about your village, making sure to set the timezone to GMT+1. Once that's done, add some events to the calendar.<br />
<br />
Once that's done hover over the calendar in the list and click on the menu button to the right of the name.<br />
<br />
[[File:HighlightedMenu.png]]<br />
<br />
Once you open the settings select to enable public sharing:<br />
<br />
[[File:PublicSharing.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
And finally click the "Get Shareable Link" button, and copy the link given - you can take that link and drop it into [[InsertURLHere]]. If the schedule changes, or you have new events, just update your Google Calendar and the schedule will update shortly afterwards.<br />

[[File:Emf1.jpg|thumb|left|The EMF sign in 2014]]<br />
Electromagnetic Field (EMF) is a non-profit UK camping festival for those with an inquisitive mind or an interest in making things: hackers, geeks, scientists, engineers, artists, and crafters.<br />
<br />
Electromagnetic Field 2018 will take place between Friday 31st August and Sunday 2nd September 2018 in [[Location|Eastnor Castle Deer Park]] in Herefordshire. Just like in [https://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2012 2012], [https://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2014/w/index.php/Electromagnetic_Field_2014 2014] and [https://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2016/w/index.php/Electromagnetic_Field_2016 2016], hundreds of people will gather in a field for three days of talks and workshops covering pretty much everything. In 2016, this included blacksmithing, crocheting, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wueRcp8QdBM robot dinosaurs], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqTLQ0T-MxU 3D printed 4D shapes], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcuwrU_bmUI key impressioning], and much more.<br />
<br />
To help matters along, we will arrange [[Power|electrical power]], a [[Network|high-speed internet connection with reliable WiFi]], and a bar stocked with real ale and Club Mate.<br />
<br />
To get an idea what EMF 2016 was like, you can view the [https://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2016/w/index.php/Talks list of talks, workshops and performances] and see recordings of a number of them on our [https://www.youtube.com/user/emfcamp1/videos Youtube channel]. If you are inspired by the past content, please consider giving a talk yourself or running a workshop this year!<br />
<br />
The campsite will also have a number of [[villages]], where those with something in common can camp together. Keep an eye on this wiki, and pick a village to join, or start your own.<br />
<br />
At each EMF event we give our attendees a programmable badge. In 2016, attendees received a MicroPython enabled [http://blog.emfcamp.org/post/145667126793/the-emf-tilda-badge-is-saved TiLDA Mkπ]. Information about past badges including TiLDA, SiNE and our next badge can be found [https://badge.emfcamp.org here].<br />
<br />
We recommend everyone reads the following pages before arrival:<br />
* [[Travel]]<br />
* [[Power]]<br />
* [[Food]]<br />
* [[What To Bring?]]<br />
<br />

<br />
In return for an approximately 3 hour shift volunteering to do something you'll receive a token for a free meal in the fantastic volunteer canteen. There'll be three meals a day, and tea and coffee at all times. (And you'll also get that warm and fuzzy feeling from helping make EMF great).<br />
<br />
== Food Vendors ==<br />
<br />
If you'd rather pay with cold, hard cash (or possibly card, but there's no guarantee of that), there'll be the following food vendors:<br />
<br />
=== The Vintage Vegan === <br />
<br />
Vegetarian and Vegan bowls, wraps and sandwiches.<br />
<br />
=== Cantina El Burrito ===<br />
<br />
Tasty Mexican burritos, nachos and chilli.<br />

<br />
==General==<br />
<br />
===Who are you?===<br />
Electromagnetic Field is a non-profit event run entirely by a group of dedicated volunteers. EMF 2018 is the fourth major festival we've held in the UK, and a lot of us also help run other festivals in Germany and the Netherlands.<br />
<br />
===Can I help out?===<br />
EMF is organised entirely by volunteers. The event's success relies on attendees helping out to the extent they are willing.<br />
<br />
More information on helping out during the event will appear on the [[Volunteering]] page in due course. If you are able to help plan and work before the event, check out the [[Teams]] page to see which teams need help.<br />
<br />
===How accessible is EMF?===<br />
We take accessibility very seriously, and we want to let as many people experience the fun of EMF. However, it is ultimately an event in the field, and we can't work miracles with our limited budget.<br />
<br />
The site will be well-lit during the event, and we will aim to cover access to the stages with trackway. Travelling between stages may take some time. There will be accessible toilets and the current plan includes an accessible shower with a wheelchair ramp. We cannot guarantee 24/7 power, so it must not be relied on for medical needs, but the power infrastructure team will be on call through the night.<br />
<br />
If you will be attending with a carer, they are entitled to a free ticket. Please [mailto:[email address removed] email us] once you've got your ticket so we can allocate your carer a ticket. Registered assistance dogs will be allowed. <br />
<br />
If you have any other accessibility concerns, please [mailto:[email address removed] drop us an email].<br />
<br />
===Is EMF family-friendly?===<br />
Yes! We want EMF to be a great event for hackers of all ages.<br />
<br />
We will have free childcare provided by the award-winning [https://www.nipperbout.com/ Nipperbout], which was exceedingly well-received in 2014 and 2016. You don’t need to register in advance for childcare, just turn up. There will be a designated family camping area, and a whole track of events and workshops for young people.<br />
<br />
EMF has a comprehensive lost-child policy with DBS-checked staff available to help out.<br />
<br />
There are a number of things to bear in mind:<br />
* Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.<br />
* There will be dangerous things on site, but they will be clearly marked.<br />
* Licensed alcohol sales are only for people of age 18 and over. Bar staff will ask for ID.<br />
<br />
===How old do you have to be to attend EMF by yourself?===<br />
You need to be 16 or over on August 30th, 2018 to attend EMF without an adult.<br />
<br />
==Ticket Sales==<br />
===What does the ticket price include?===<br />
The ticket price includes admission to the event, admission to all of the talks, and most of the workshops. Some workshop organisers charge a fee in order to cover material costs, and places on most workshops will be limited.<br />
<br />
Your ticket also includes:<br />
* Tent pitch<br />
* Water<br />
* Showers & Toilets<br />
* [[Network|Fast internet]]<br />
* Electricity<br />
<br />
===Can I bring a caravan/camper van?===<br />
Yes, we will have a dedicated camper van area on site, within the main fence, with 16A power provided. You'll need to buy an additional camper van ticket.<br />
<br />
If you are coming with a caravan, parking for your towing car in the car park is included.<br />
<br />
Please try to arrive before midday on Friday and leave after midday on Monday to reduce traffic movements on site. If you're planning on leaving earlier, please let us know when you arrive so we can park you close to the exit.<br />
<br />
We unfortunately can't provide water hookups or drainage/emptying facilities. You will not be able to empty your tank during the event.<br />
<br />
===If I tow a caravan with a campervan, will I need a ticket for each?===<br />
<br />
Yes. <br />
<br />
(Somehow this is actually a frequently asked question!)<br />
<br />
===Do volunteers get a free ticket?===<br />
Everyone who attends is expected to buy a ticket, including the founders and the core organisation team. So many people contribute to running EMF that it would be financially impossible to give everyone who helps out a free ticket, and unfair to draw a line past which volunteers receive free tickets.<br />
<br />
The sole exception to this rule are first aiders, who must be trained to the high standards of our first aid team, and are expected to carry out three eight-hour shifts in return for a free ticket.<br />
<br />
===The transaction reference you've provided isn't accepted by my bank!===<br />
If you are having trouble entering the transaction reference into your online banking, just remove the hyphen. Some banks don't like it and don't tell you why.<br />
<br />
===Can I transfer tickets to someone else?===<br />
<br />
Yes - once you've bought a ticket you can transfer it to someone else by entering their email address on our site. We recommend you do this if you're buying tickets for other people, so that they can receive updates directly from us.<br />
<br />
We would kindly request that you don't sell tickets to other people for more than the price you paid for them.<br />
<br />
You can find people who may be interested in getting your ticket at [[Ticket_Exchange]].<br />
<br />
===Can I get a refund?===<br />
<br />
We may consider issuing refunds to those who can't attend if the event sells out. We will not issue refunds for any reason before then. (However, you can sell your ticket on to someone else - see above.)<br />
<br />
===Why do you sell tickets in such annoyingly small batches?===<br />
<br />
Because we don't want to take more of your money than necessary.<br />
<br />
EMF is a non-profit, and we aim to end the event with enough surplus to let us comfortably run the next event, but not too much more. The budget for EMF isn't solid until about six months prior to the event (especially when we've moved to a new site) but we need cash earlier in order to pay deposits to key suppliers. These secure important things like toilets, temporary structures, and the site itself.<br />
<br />
If we were to put all of our tickets on sale early, we would have to set ticket prices higher in order to make provision for potential budget changes. By selling smaller batches earlier, we ensure everyone's ticket is the best value, and that as many people as possible can have the chance to attend EMF.<br />
<br />
==Planning your Attendance==<br />
===Where is it? How can I get there?===<br />
The EMF site is Eastnor Castle Deer Park, located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire. <br />
<br />
We'll be running a shuttle bus to Ledbury station which has direct trains to Birmingham and London. See [[Travel]] for more details<br />
<br />
=== Can someone take me there? ===<br />
<br />
See the [[Travel#Carpooling]] section of the [[Travel]] page<br />
<br />
===When can I arrive? When do I have to leave by?===<br />
The site will open to ticket holders on Thursday at 4pm. All ticket holders must leave the site by noon (12pm) on Monday. Talks and workshops won't start until after midday on the Friday so there's plenty of time to arrive on Friday morning.<br />
<br />
We will be there before and afterwards setting up and packing up. If you want to help with this, please let us know (by emailing [mailto:[email address removed] [email address removed]]) and we'll let you know when you can turn up. If we have not confirmed that we're expecting you before or after the event you will not be admitted to the site. '''Anyone arriving before Friday morning or staying beyond Monday afternoon will be expected to help with set-up and tear-down (both of which are mostly manual labour).''' Fewer facilities (eg, no food outlets) will be available on site prior to Friday.<br />
<br />
===Can I turn up early to help with Build Up?===<br />
No you may not. We already have a full allocation for build up. Due to insurance reasons, and not having enough basic facilities and food, unless you are part of the main Orga team, or have been authorised by a Team Lead, you will be not be let into the site until Thursday 4pm.<br />
<br />
===When do things kick off?===<br />
The talks and workshops will begin after lunch on Friday, although people will be setting up earlier in the day.<br />
<br />
Talks and workshops run daily through to the evening, although we expect villages will be doing things late into the night! The last talks will finish on Sunday evening by 9pm.<br />
<br />
===Can I camp in the campervan area?===<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
People with campervans can pitch an awning or small tent beside their vehicle but to comply with fire and safety regulations we can't allow people to set up camp there. <br />
<br />
If you have friends in the campervan area we suggest you camp in areas G or F which are adjacent.<br />
<br />
===What's the mobile phone coverage like?===<br />
<br />
Mobile phone (a.k.a. cellphone) coverage is almost non-existent. Of all the carriers, Vodafone seems to be the best, with some signal in some areas - but with 2,500 more people on site there are no guarantees it will work at all.<br />
<br />
Basically, you should expect to have no reception across most of the site and most of the time.<br />
<br />
For data, that's no problem thanks to the [[Network|excellent WiFi]] across the site. If you need to be reachable by phone during the event, your best options are:<br />
<br />
* Use a SIP/VoIP app on your smartphone over the wifi.<br />
* Bring a DECT phone to connect to the [[DECT|DECT network]]. There will hopefully be a way to get yourself an external phone number to your DECT phone or for outside callers to dial an extension number to reach you.<br />
* Some networks, such as Three Mobile, support WiFi calling. This often requires activating in an area with mobile phone coverage, so it’s worth doing this before arriving.<br />
<br />
===Will there be a bar?===<br />
Yes, we'll be running a volunteer-staffed licensed bar selling beer and wine, as well as soft drinks and the hacker energy drink Club Mate. Far from the usual crap festival beer, we will be serving real ale from local breweries with all profits going towards making the next iteration of Electromagnetic Field more awesome.<br />
<br />
The bar will be open 11am-2am Friday-Saturday, 11am-1am Sunday. Closing times may be earlier subject to demand and volunteer availability.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring pets?===<br />
Sorry, animals (except registered assistance animals) are not allowed.<br />
<br />
===Can I smoke?===<br />
Smoking (including vaping) is not allowed in any of the event tents or in the food/bar area. Elsewhere, please be considerate and very careful to extinguish your cigarettes to avoid setting the dry grass on fire. Please make sure cigarette butts are disposed of in rubbish bins rather than just thrown on the ground as the site is used by livestock at other times of the year, and it's a pain for the clean up crew to pick them up after the camp is over!<br />
<br />
===Can I bring X/Y/Z?===<br />
tl;dr Probably<br />
<br />
Please let us know if it's going to be large/tall/use a lot of power/be noisy or anything else you think we should know. We don't want to stop people bringing the latest cool laser helmet for shark 3D printer arduino-powered UAV thing, but we need to plan for it.<br />
<br />
Things requiring special permission and may not be allowed: balloons, sky lanterns and the like.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring/fly my drone?===<br />
Yes - lots of attendees will be bringing drones and there will be a dedicated UAV flying field. It is against UK law to fly drones over the campsite unless you hold permission from the UK Civil Aviation Authority. EMF will be enforcing this rule, and for safety we will not allow UAVs to be flown over the site without prior arrangement.<br />
<br />
===What power connectors will be available?===<br />
Mostly 16A IEC309 ('Ceeform'/'Caravan') connectors although there will be some 13A UK sockets. See the [[Power|power page]] for more information.<br />
<br />
===What if I don't like camping?===<br />
Whilst we'd strongly recommend camping (so much happens late into the evening and it's a lot more fun) we realise not everyone wants to. There are several hotels in Ledbury.<br />
<br />
===What food will be available?===<br />
There will be several food vendors on site, and volunteers will receive an excellent meal good by our caterers for each volunteer shift they complete.<br />
<br />
===Do I need to bring cash?===<br />
The bar will take cards, and offer cashback on purchases, but there will be no cashpoints on site. We don't know whether the food vendors will take cards, and some villages will also be running paid-for workshops where you shouldn't expect to be able to pay by card.<br />
<br />
===What are villages?===<br />
[[Villages]] are areas of the campsite self-organised by attendees. The idea is that like-minded people get together, set up in an area of the campsite and enjoy each other's company. Villages are often set up around a topic or existing group (e.g. lock-picking or a hackspace). Some of them will run their own events parallel to the main schedule (for example last year one village hosted a weekend-long LAN party whilst another ran workshops on ring-making).<br />
<br />
If you want to find out more, or see which villages are already proposed see the [[Villages| villages page]]<br />
<br />
You don't need to join a village to attend.<br />
<br />
==At the Event==<br />
===Can i attach a hammock, slackline, or other things, to the trees?===<br />
Nope. The site owners are very protective about them and have specified that we don't attach anything to them.<br />
<br />
===Can i light a fire or BBQ?===<br />
Yes as long as its contained and raised off of the ground so that the grass/ground arent burnt/scorched etc.</div>Jonwoodhttps://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2018/w/index.php?title=Interest:IoT&diff=3107Interest:IoT2018-08-24T09:44:37Z<p>Jonwood: </p>

The site will open to ticket holders on Thursday at 4pm. All ticket holders must leave the site by noon (12pm) on Monday. Talks and workshops won't start until after midday on the Friday so there's plenty of time to arrive on Friday morning.<br />
<br />
We will be there before and afterwards setting up and packing up. If you want to help with this, please let us know (by emailing [mailto:[email address removed] [email address removed]]) and we'll let you know when you can turn up. If we have not confirmed that we're expecting you before or after the event you will not be admitted to the site. '''Anyone arriving before Friday morning or staying beyond Monday afternoon will be expected to help with set-up and tear-down (both of which are mostly manual labour).''' Fewer facilities (eg, no food outlets) will be available on site prior to Friday.<br />
<br />
===When do things kick off?===<br />
The talks and workshops will begin after lunch on Friday, although people will be setting up earlier in the day.<br />
<br />
Talks and workshops run daily through to the evening, although we expect villages will be doing things late into the night! The last talks will finish on Sunday evening by 9pm.<br />
<br />
===Can I camp in the campervan area?===<br />
<br />
No.<br />
<br />
People with campervans can pitch an awning or small tent beside their vehicle but to comply with fire and safety regulations we can't allow people to set up camp there. <br />
<br />
If you have friends in the campervan area we suggest you camp in areas G or F which are adjacent.<br />
<br />
===What's the mobile phone coverage like?===<br />
<br />
Mobile phone (a.k.a. cellphone) coverage is almost non-existent. Of all the carriers, Vodafone seems to be the best, with some signal in some areas - but with 2,500 more people on site there are no guarantees it will work at all.<br />
<br />
Basically, you should expect to have no reception across most of the site and most of the time.<br />
<br />
For data, that's no problem thanks to the [[Network|excellent WiFi]] across the site. If you need to be reachable by phone during the event, your best options are:<br />
<br />
* Use a SIP/VoIP app on your smartphone over the wifi.<br />
* Bring a DECT phone to connect to the [[DECT|DECT network]]. There will hopefully be a way to get yourself an external phone number to your DECT phone or for outside callers to dial an extension number to reach you.<br />
* Some networks, such as Three Mobile, support WiFi calling. This often requires activating in an area with mobile phone coverage, so it’s worth doing this before arriving.<br />
<br />
===Will there be a bar?===<br />
Yes, we'll be running a volunteer-staffed licensed bar selling beer and wine, as well as soft drinks and the hacker energy drink Club Mate. Far from the usual crap festival beer, we will be serving real ale from local breweries with all profits going towards making the next iteration of Electromagnetic Field more awesome.<br />
<br />
The bar will be open 11am-2am Friday-Saturday, 11am-1am Sunday. Closing times may be earlier subject to demand and volunteer availability.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring pets?===<br />
Sorry, animals (except registered assistance animals) are not allowed.<br />
<br />
===Can I smoke?===<br />
Smoking (including vaping) is not allowed in any of the event tents or in the food/bar area. Elsewhere, please be considerate and very careful to extinguish your cigarettes to avoid setting the dry grass on fire. Please make sure cigarette butts are disposed of in rubbish bins rather than just thrown on the ground as the site is used by livestock at other times of the year, and it's a pain for the clean up crew to pick them up after the camp is over!<br />
<br />
===Can I bring X/Y/Z?===<br />
tl;dr Probably<br />
<br />
Please let us know if it's going to be large/tall/use a lot of power/be noisy or anything else you think we should know. We don't want to stop people bringing the latest cool laser helmet for shark 3D printer arduino-powered UAV thing, but we need to plan for it.<br />
<br />
Things requiring special permission and may not be allowed: balloons, sky lanterns and the like.<br />
<br />
===Can I bring/fly my drone?===<br />
Yes - lots of attendees will be bringing drones and there will be a dedicated UAV flying field. It is against UK law to fly drones over the campsite unless you hold permission from the UK Civil Aviation Authority. EMF will be enforcing this rule, and for safety we will not allow UAVs to be flown over the site without prior arrangement.<br />
<br />
===What power connectors will be available?===<br />
Mostly 16A IEC309 ('Ceeform'/'Caravan') connectors although there will be some 13A UK sockets. See the [[Power|power page]] for more information.<br />
<br />
===What if I don't like camping?===<br />
Whilst we'd strongly recommend camping (so much happens late into the evening and it's a lot more fun) we realise not everyone wants to. There are several hotels in Ledbury.<br />
<br />
===What are villages?===<br />
[[Villages]] are areas of the campsite self-organised by attendees. The idea is that like-minded people get together, set up in an area of the campsite and enjoy each other's company. Villages are often set up around a topic or existing group (e.g. lock-picking or a hackspace). Some of them will run their own events parallel to the main schedule (for example last year one village hosted a weekend-long LAN party whilst another ran workshops on ring-making).<br />
<br />
If you want to find out more, or see which villages are already proposed see the [[Villages| villages page]]<br />
<br />
You don't need to join a village to attend.<br />
<br />
==At the Event==<br />
===Can i attach a hammock, slackline, or other things, to the trees?===<br />
Nope. The site owners are very protective about them and have specified that we don't attach anything to them.<br />
<br />
===Can i light a fire or BBQ?===<br />
Yes as long as its contained and raised off of the ground so that the grass/ground arent burnt/scorched etc.</div>Jonwoodhttps://wiki-archive.emfcamp.org/2018/w/index.php?title=Travel&diff=3012Travel2018-08-23T06:20:06Z<p>Jonwood: Motorbikes don’t need parking tickets, and we have our own signs</p>
<hr />
<div>The EMF2018 site is [[Location|Eastnor Castle Deer Park]], located just east of Ledbury, Herefordshire. <br />
<br />
== Public transport ==<br />
<br />
=== Train 🚂 ===<br />
We are close to '''Ledbury''' station which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/londonpaddington/ledbury/ three hours] direct from London Paddington (on [https://www.gwr.com/ GWR]) and [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghamnewstreet/ledbury/ one hour] from Birmingham New Street (on [https://www.westmidlandsrailway.co.uk/ West Midlands Railway]). <br />
<br />
As of June 18th, tickets from Paddington are currently as cheap as £12 return. If you buy a ticket on the day, the price will be £55-89 return depending on your time of travel.<br />
<br />
Ledbury station to the EMF site is around 5km or 10 mins drive. We will be providing a complimentary shuttle bus service between Ledbury station and the EMF site, starting no later than 11am on Friday 31st and ending no earlier than 1pm on Monday 3rd. Please stay tuned for further details on timings.<br />
<br />
=== Air ✈️ ===<br />
<br />
The closest major airport is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Airport Birmingham ✈(BHX)], which is around [https://traintimes.org.uk/birminghaminternational/ledbury/ 1hr40] by train to Ledbury station; or an hour by road.<br />
<br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Airport Bristol ✈(BRS)] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff_Airport Cardiff ✈(CWL)] are around 1hr40 by road, but poorly connected by public transport.<br />
<br />
For those travelling long-haul, BHX is likely to be be most useful followed by LHR.<br />
<br />
== Driving 🚗 ==<br />
<br />
=== Getting here ===<br />
If you plan to drive, you will need to buy a parking ticket (£15) or campervan ticket (£40) available [https://www.emfcamp.org/tickets/other here]. Motorcycles do not require a parking ticket.<br />
<br />
The site is around 13 mins drive from the M50 Junction 2.<br />
<br />
Plan your travel to the south gate (adjacent to A438) - postcode '''HR8 1RQ''' should get you there. The entrance to the site is '''52°01'56"N 2°23'01"W''' / '''OS Grid SO 738 372'''.<br />
<br />
Once you leave the motorway, follow the yellow AA signs to EMF, ignoring your sat nav which may try to take you through the town.<br />
