          Chaos Constructions



   We think, in the preface article Random'a
on the self-evident theme is unlikely to
needs. Therefore, let us say briefly - before
you replied to many questions:
"What actually happened during the festival days?".

        CC000 or Know Your Enemies


   In fact, the idea of ​​writing a report on its
name I had long since to really understand where and what was 
done right and wrong, one can only know

first-hand information. Nevertheless, doubts tormented me. I 
understand that's pretty much been done openly

bad and wrong time, although there were many positive things 
that will be remembered for a long time. But first, about the 
problems. 


   All the main problem at this party were due to choosing the 
wrong people and wrong prioritized. Bright example of the first 
- is that the iron was originally headed by people with little 
experience, as an example of the latter is the fact that

it was necessary to immediately send shooting a movie in
depth / dev / null 'as well. Now more detail
about problems and how they formed.


             Day 1: Spectrum


   Preparing for that day left much to be
desired. Though it has been found major
projector, a great decoder (which signal
Spectrum turned into a video signal to the projector), good 
sound and many others, Why now and do not remember, problems 
emerged immediately as soon as the steel connect the Scorpion 
to the audio and video systems. Being fully confident that

Scorpion has been fully tested, namely
here as soon as I, as chief organizer,
and sat down in the puddle. Scorpion has been tested, but only 
partially - the sound AY'shki correctly _not_ working at all. 
Whip hand, were proposed to borrow from the Pentagon 
Mednonogova Fame, which was done, then all system to connect 
and so on ... 


   In fact, now I see why
there were so many problems during the show demos - the 
Pentagon itself is terribly buggy machine. It was necessary to 
finalize the Scorpion proper level. The more so because AY'shki 
delivered, but the first day, too late. In Next time Scorpion I 
personally own check, or hang organization Spectrum techniques 
for more experienced people. Unfortunately, the firm "Scorpio" 
has failed to provide staff and Merlin Mandora on SS and Zerov, 
to more unfortunately, was at that time in the hospital 
post-stroke condition. 


   Conclusion: the next SS Spectrum will
tested at least a week before the party and responsible for his 
people will be people with experience both on knowledges of the 
iron Spectrum and Spectrum scene in general. In the meantime, 
many thanks to those guys who helped us run the Pentagon - Slava

Mednonogov, Voffka Larkov, MOT / AC, Jocker /
Klim from OHG, and even Unbel! Ever from Samara.


   The main problem the first day - a delay of several hours 
the start of the party. She was due primarily to the fact that 
they were wrong to set priorities for me.



   What I mean: *********** shot
cinema, furiously plugging in this case me.
I have made all attempts to somehow explain to him
that to me is more important than itself a party, its 
organization, rather than a movie, but it seems that did not 
understand. Part of the first day was lost just on purposeless 
fermentation by Peter - both legs and in the limo, the meaning 
of which I now realize I can only interference. 


   An additional problem was a question with printed material - 
that is, the voting lists, tickets, certificates etc. The funny 
(or sad) that it was all done properly for

A few days before the party. Only, but
and the main problem was that the entire
This product was ... forgotten ********* Friday. And he 
remembered that it had to be pick up only after the closed

the company itself.


   In general, all the SS was on the level of disruption
even in the night from Friday to Saturday. Those people who saw 
me, could contemplate what is a completely gaga

tower at the main organizer. No matter how I
trying to hide something I'm all that
by ... Edit infuriates, it could only partially. By four 
o'clock in the morning, I thought two option, though, not even 
three, but the latter brushed aside immediately. Partee, I will 
not cancel, too many people came from all over the world. The 
first option was to completely clog on _standartnuyu_ 
organizing such events. That is, to make entrance free (Because 
the tickets did not exist because above) for all and not to 
conduct any components, just to show work without voting for 
the entertainment of the public. But this option was not much 
better than the third, why is one - to solve the problem

tickets as you wish, to solve the problem with the sheets for 
voting the same way. Here the implementation of this idea has 
been committed another mistake - I had hoped that the printer 
will be open on Saturday (at least Or so said in the background)

It was therefore decided to distribute the securities to the 
public to record their votes, and then when it will arrive 
pre-printed pages - to distribute them.



   So, the first day started hard, but
Nevertheless, all the iron was plugged in
everything worked. Projector for the first time ever
Spectrum story on full screen shows a large color images, and 
sound system gave out on us the power AY'shki. 


             Morning of first day


   In the morning I went into town *******
pick tipografnye materials and cameras for
filming. With the first we have broken off immediately,
knowing that the printer is not working today.
How many mats were laid out - to present
difficult ... I decided to go directly to partipleys, but was 
stopped by the same *******, because of his interest in initial 
surveys. Having done all on my own effort to otmazatsya, I 
failed, because the money was already spent ... 


   On the way to the place we decided the same issue
with tickets, and a very original and I
I think a good solution - to put the visitors seal. It was 
purchased in the "arcade" for 300-400 rubles, as far as I can 
remember. 


   Having come to the cinema very late and went into the hall, 
I noticed that the light still not connected. Postponing the 
opening of another for 15 minutes, I was in a quickly explained 
the situation with security (for which it spent about 100 
bucks, and the money I I think very well spent). This,

Again, more like did not exist. The best thing about this 
solution is that the very security had nothing to do with the 
scene, and had no prejudice against the public,

as happens when the protection is someone
of their own. Guys with their work managed to cheer, for what 
they are thank you very much (and also thanks to my brother 
Ian, because he arranged everything). The doors were open,

people crowded.


   How was the day - to tell the meaning
No, you can only add that because of glitches in some of the 
Pentagon just did not go. Thank God for the next year is not

will have to suffer with it. It should also be
left-over problems with the police, with
which started the global zamorochki because of the crowds 
outside. Nevertheless, the question was settled, at least for 
this and it took some time. Also somewhere in the same field 
some questions from the administration, such as: "What do "and" 
Why did we come from for this. "conflict was resolved, too. I 
think everybody understands how.



            Day 2: Other


   The day ended and it came time to decide on the second day. 
Were simply needed sheets for counting. For

the case of Novgorod was withdrawn Vic -
he drew a new leaf for voting
for that he, thank you very much. Seal and
copying the work took Basil and Kostya, friends of my 
childhood. Although they told me "Prodinamit" could not. By the 
way, all a lesson for the future - so we can verify

that are fit to your friends. If you do not give up
under stress, they can be taken for what
whatever.


   At night all the time before the start of people held 
preselekt at work. For that a huge thank you to all who 
participate in it. Studies have been very many, very many 
brought on the first day, very much brought directly into the 
second day. 


           The next morning


   Sheets came to a vote. Most
biggest problem of the second day was
that the police were hard put
Time frame: 7 pm to clean the room. I already knew from the 
start that all contests to hold, we simply do not have time,

but it was too late to rush.


   The day began, the people crowded, the components have 
passed without any overlap, except that Sometimes the projector 
just "sit down" due to overheating (it was designed for 2 hours 
of constant work, and then to take a break

20 minutes, which was done during
one of the musical component). In short, all
ended nearly seven hours later. Militia
ordered everyone to leave the building and threatened to
"Mopping up". Integrate people, I did not
(Threatened to send a couple of trucks to
Hydrating _pirovavshih_ particular, their names, I
I hope to talk is not necessary - everybody knows). It's a pity 
only that because of this Open "buhalova and problems with

police.


   Thus, the room was cleared, started
cleaning (for which thanks Dzheymsu that
worthy of it did). Partial results
were calculated for the Spectrum and made public
the public, thanks to MMA and the team he assembled - Flying, 
Raver and the rest! Simply because of inability to continue 
further the banquet, it was decided calculate the remaining 
results in more a calm atmosphere and then to extend them.



       The final article. About the money


   Perhaps someone will wonder where
and how money was spent during the party:


   room rental: $ 300

   projection: $ 50

   Light: $ 50

   printed materials: $ 55

   security: $ 100

   problems: ~ $ 300

   else: $ 100

                       ----
                      ~ $ 1000


   (The rest consists of communications,
Extra print the forms for voting
cars for transportation equipment, wires,
Consumables and other stuff.)


                 *


   Here, perhaps, all that I can now
remember. So, what is the party has brought us:


   - A bunch of new and frankly beautiful
works - thank you to everyone who sent in their work, we have 
about you will not forget, we will do everything from our 
effort to better support you at the next party!



   - The highest since Enlight'97 number of those present - 
thanks to everyone who came and supported us, we will

make it even more spectacular next year!


   - Excellent room, thanks
Administration cinema "Sunrise"!


   - Excellent projection and sound, for which
Thanks also cinema and administration
approximate people!


   - A very beautiful light, thanks
Hunter'u and Frunze!


   - Support from the scene for what
Thanks to her!


   - Support from the media
information, and thanks to them!


   - Support from visitors / members. Many have understood the 
situation in which we were and just helped us in difficult time 
without their help it is unlikely that either happened. Once 
again, thank you very much. Thanks to those who come after / 
during party and supported us, thanks for the good

words, thank you for your understanding.



   On my own I would like to just ask
sorry for a lot of errors and punctures in the organization. 
All the blame for them I'll take care of, I can only promise a 
better organization next year due to a change some people and 
adding new ones. 


            See you at the CC1.


                     Over and out, Random.
__________________________________________


   Well, finally the situation with the CC000
clear. Thank you, Random, for the dispersal
dark clouds of assumptions and predictions. :) By the way, 
bring the wildest apologize for the delay in publication of the 
article, which was given us somewhere around October 25 (as it 
was written, according to Random'a, September 7) ...



   And finally, here's what. Some individuals (and want to 
write: indiviDOOMy:)) cling to the fact that CC, allegedly, a 
business venture, because the fleece money per ticket, and so 
need to present all on a saucer with a known bordered in which

are all sorts of amenities. It is not.
CC - not a commercial party, festival yavlyaetya 
_sponsiruemym_, paid the same entry - an attempt to somehow 
reduce (but not cover!) expenses for patrons still not out Clan 
of the richest of the world. In addition, when this situation 
from the participants and spectators party comes not only moral 
support but real, as we live, how would say Nemo, in the 
material world, where the reflection of the matter in a 
technological civilization is money ... :)



   By the way, the organizer Englight'ov, Peter
Sobolev, believes that the okay to
party in Russia, it is possible, provided
sponsorship - and by "old"
demomeykerov enthusiasts, many of whom are now wealthy. With 
Internet access can read the details in the author's exposition 
on the site www.enlight.ru (section Review CC000).
