Deep dive into new worlds – CfP for the Interfug 2025
Under the motto “Deep dive into new worlds”, the Chaos Computer Club Chemnitz invites you to Interfug 2025, our cosy geekend in the cultural capital of Chemnitz. This year’s Interfug will again take place at the start of the 42nd calendar week from 10 to 12 October 2025 at Lokomov.
Date: Friday - Sunday, 10 to 12 October 2025 (arrival and city tour on 10. and main Event from 11. to 12.)
Address: Augustusburger Straße 102, 09126 Chemnitz
True to our theme, we grant free admission to guests with matching costumes. (All other guests too, of course.) Nevertheless, we are always very happy to receive a donation. (Recommended donation: €10 + donation for breakfast on Sunday).
The Interfug is our annual contribution to more chaos in the East. The focus is on the topics of media, AI and technical innovations both above and below sea level. It’s not just about how we deal with this technology, but also about its influence on society.
Call for Participation
Contrary to its name, the on-board entertainment is not a service, but is provided by everyone for everyone. Together we want to learn from each other, exchange ideas about projects close to our hearts and simply have fun.
Do you make art with technology, are you interested in something socially relevant or do you have an absolutely geeky topic? Great! Do you have a project or topic that you could present to us in a talk/presentation? Great! Have you always wanted to pass on knowledge or skills in a workshop? Now is your moment!
We look forward to your submission at https://talks.interfug.de/interfug-2025/cfp! If you have any questions or are still unsure, please write to us. We would especially like to encourage FLINTA1 to contact us if they are unsure.2
You are welcome to send us your submissions by 8 September 2025. Please give your talk, workshop or art project a meaningful title and an informative short description. Presentations should last 20 or 45 minutes, workshops 60 or 90 minutes. At the moment we cannot say whether there will be recordings - please let us know if you agree to a recording.
On board
After last year’s positive experience, the venue is once again the Lokomov in our down stairs from our club. The location will remain open overnight and a continuous supply of Mate is guaranteed. The bar is (visually) halved by its U-shape: We use the part with the stage for lectures and a room on the top floor for workshops. The rest of the bar offers seating, and for small workshops we can move to our hackspace on the second floor.
Unfortunately, the venue is not barrier-free: There is no accessible toilet, no lift and no guidance system. Please contact us in advance so that we can make it possible for you to participate.
We are planning city tours through Chemnitz on Friday afternoons - please register!
All Hands on Deck!
If you can help us with the planning or during the dive trip, please get in touch. Our boat is large and complex. The more sailors, midshipmen and ship people we hire, the deeper we can dive. At the moment, we dare to go to periscope depth, with your help we can reach new worlds.
We look forward to help with setting up (e.g. decorations, hauling & setting up technology) and travelling (e.g. moderation).
