Halloween Open Day

The London Hackspace is a non-profit, community-run hacker space in central London. We provide a space where people who make things can come to share tools and knowledge.

On November 2nd we'll be opening our doors for a special Hallowe'en open day. Expect dry ice, UV lights, mad science, and much more.

We'll have a bar serving beer and soft drinks to raise money.

Facebook event, if you're so inclined.

PLANS

• The bar. Russ will sort the license, but will need your help organising things.
• Tim, Tom and Charles want to cover the carpark in a layer of fog and make fake gravestones. As part of this we'll be ordering 10kg of dry ice. So if you can think of fun things to do with it...
  • We want it so we can attempt to flood the carpark with low level fog
  • we could do the "bubbling evil drink" thing as well, but for the love of $GODS do not drink it
    • we think we can use a tea infuser to put pieces of dry ice in drinks and make them safe to drink. It stops the lumps from being swallowed. Tom is going to find a cheap source of tea infusers for this
  • Jonty wants to build a cloudchamber. So do I - Tom
• Tim, Tom and Charles may also want to run a large scale game in the car park. We may need some space. Details to follow.
• I'd like to bagsy the spaces DMX kit for the day, if possible. - Tim
• Liquid Nitrogen ice cream and other shenanigans, if we can get the cash - Russ
• would anyone object to us making doorbot more "evil" for the day?
  • we could temporarily replace the sounds with halloween noises
• how about we get the spaces rift out and run things like Amnesia on it?
• UV lights for glowy funs
• Brewers will be Brewing on the day. Usual place by the loading bay. Maybe we can dress the kit up a bit, make the keggle more of a cauldron.
