We have a theme for this year’s site decorations - cardboard cyberpunk!  Let loose your inner child and join in to build the coolest cyberpunk scenery, using cardboard boxes, sheet and tubes, sharpies and fluorescent paints. 
We have a theme for this year’s site decorations - transparent, glowing black/white cyberpunk!   
 
By day it’ll be a silly, nerdy, hand-crafted extravaganza, but once the sun goes down, UV spots will turn it into a tron-like world of cyber-mystery.
 
The key ideas here are to use cheap, low-impact materials and accessible, hands-on techniques.  Ideally, the more people we can get contributing cardboard devices and decorations the better the site will look. 
 
We’re also looking for more involved help with various aspects of the decoration - see below for specifics, or send an email to [email address removed] - we’re all volunteers here and it would be great to hear from you.

=== Make A Letter/Number For The EMF Sign ===
'' From Anywhere // Deliver To Site By End Thursday 30th August ''
 
Just like in Hollywood, we want you all to know where you are, and we’ve got just the hillside to put a giant “EMF2018” sign on.  We can do better than plain white though, so design and build something for us! 
This is an excellent opportunity to show off your creative skills and make something that’ll be seen from across the site.  Each letter should be sized to fit on a standard plywood sheet (1220mm x 2440mm).  We’ll be building the supports and can light it or supply power if necessary.  If you’d like to contribute a character, please get in touch!  We’d love to see what you come up with.
 
 
===Screen Printing Day ===
'' London // Some Time In July/August ''
 
We need flags.  Lots of flags.  These flappy decorations really add to the festive atmosphere, but they need to be branded with the EMF logo.  We’d really appreciate someone with screen printing experience and/or equipment to lead a work party to get these made. 
 
 
=== Lighting And Light Installations ===
'' Remote during prep, during setup on site, dates TBD ''
 
The site needs to look awesome day AND night, and for that we need lighting.  In particular, we have two lounges and a bar to light, along with plenty of trees and even a few ponds, if that inspires you.  We have some budget, we have some ideas, but we’d love you to help us making it happen.  Get in touch!
 
 
=== Cardboard Cyber-Gubbins ===
'' Make Where You Are // Bring With You ''


The cyber cardboard nonsense across the site will look even better with more detail and depth - think the surface of the Death Star, or the buildings in Bladerunner.  If you can make some cardboard “CYBER” elements, they’ll be hugely welcome additions to any cardboard installation on site.  We'll try and put up some examples and guidelines soon, but if you've got any questions drop an email.

If you’re up for helping in the lead-up to EMF, please drop a line to the decoration team.  It’s likely we’ll have work parties in the Limehouse Town Hall or in Battersea, where we’ll be creating things like CyberBunting, flags, cardboard monoliths and signs.  So many signs.  If you’re interested please drop us a line and we’ll put word out when each volunteering opportunity arises.

Cardboard Space Programme

Make Where You Are // Bring With You

Let’s have a Kerbal-style cardboard space programme in the space-themed lounge! Something to sit in and make space noises. Shoot for the imaginary stars! Wheels? Fins? Wings? Landing gear? Boosters? If it lights up or beeps, even better. Save those big appliance boxes or other cardboard gubbins, bring them to the Lounge tent when you arrive, and work with others to create modules for a space station, ship or lander.
