It's official… we're back! I know it feels like ages away, but if you're brewing a crazy idea for an installation/artwork in your head and you think you might need any support from the EMF Installations team, then the time to start talking to us is now!

In honour of the official announcement, I've cleared the inbox ready to start monitoring it again…

We are finally ready to announce that EMF 2026 will happen on July 16-19, 2026, at Eastnor Castle Deer Park, Herefordshire. Expect more updates soon as we start spinning up the organisation again.
This is a public service announcement.
GCHQ.NET will return. Stay tuned. We’re listening.
Before EMF, I had the pleasure of meeting artist Jem Finer and collecting his gigantic marble-run artwork Supercomputer. We put it in a tent as a participatory experiment. I expected we'd give it away in bits at the end as nobody could store it.
Excitingly, Look Mum No Computer came to the festival and asked if he could take the whole thing! I spoke to Jem and he seemed cool with that, so this is the result:

And now, thanks to a discussion in the #EMFcamp IRC, I'm thinking about building a model Clacks tower or several.
edit: because one tower is just shouting into the void with more steps
