-------/----------------------------------------- introduction ---------
when all the visitors had left and the youth-center in
arnoldweiler was clean again, all of us felt that evoke 97 was
something special. not only for the organizers but mostly for the
visitors. all the positive resonance we got on irc, in fido,
through email and the release of dpis party-report simply forced
us to plan for a second edition.
in december the organizing-team started its work: discussion on
general questions and more detailed issues. what could have been
better? what was cool? things got really busy from march on
especially as we couldnt find a suitable location at first but
since mekka/symposium the first information is available to the
public. a little updating was done for black maiden 17.
-------/----------------------------------------- location ---------
one of the cities with a very strong european touch is going
to welcome the scene at evoke nine eight. aachen, close to the
belgian and dutch border.
the partyplace will be the mensa of the university of aachen,
called theatersaal. it is located right in the heart of
the city, in turmstrasse.
the entrance fee for this year will be DM 25,--.
girls get in for free. all the money which is left after
substracting our expences is used for the prices.
car
the most easy way to come to evoke nine eight by car would be
to exit autobahn highway a4 at aachen-laurensberg. turn
right, direction aachen-stadt city, on kohlscheider
strasse, which later turns into roermonder strasse. be careful:
stick to the tempo-limit as there is a radar-trap on the way.
after ca. 3 km - shortly before a large crossing - you will
find turmstrasse on the right. stop your car in turmstrasse and
try to find a parking-slot. if you have come to the end of
turmstrasse without finding one, turn left at the crossing and
- just some meters later - right on the parking ground. take
your stuff and go into the location. after you have checked in
you have to drive your car to bend-platz, a large and free
parking ground in khlwetterstrasse. Parking is not allowed
neither in turmstrasse nor on the parking ground opposite of
the theatersaal.
if you should happen not to have much equipment simply drive to
bendplatz kuehlwetterstrasse and park there.
for those who didnt get it there will be signs guiding to the
location. just as last year. a map is available on our homepage
and will be included with the next official infofile.
train
if youre coming by train exit aachen hauptbahnhof. from there
on you have to take the bus. the bus-station you will find
right when you exit the station. every 15 minutes lines 3 and
13 will take you to the location do not cross the street or
you will go in the wrong direction. after 20 minutes the bus
will stop at ponttor. exit the bus, turn towards the crossing
and turn left then. on the other side of the road you will find
the sign mensa, the location of the evoke.
another solution could be to exit aachen west. from the station
go to inzestrasse, turn left and you will find the mensa-sign
again. prefer this solution if you dont have lots of equipment
and if you find a train which stops directly at aachen west.
in any case please contact dv8 for more information. in some
cases we could catch you from any of the mentioned stations.
plane
try to book a trip to maastricht-aachen. other airports
could be luettich, koeln/bonn or duesseldorf. in every
case, please contact the organizers.

versions of this infofile. for more information on aachen

way.

-------/----------------------------------------- competition ---------
besides meeting friends, its the compos that make us come
to parties like evoke.
some things about the compo went really wrong last year. we dont
want to beautify this. as we hope to have learned from our faults,
we made some changes to the rules. for example, there will be 100
public voting and - for each compo - a dedicated organizer.
just like last year we will give away all the money as prices,
which was left after paying our bills.
compo-pc
. right now, we are not sure about the final configuration of
the compo-pc. but it will be a pentium 166 with 32mb ram and
a gus, at least.
. as for the beamer the maximum resolution is 640*480.
watch out for the forthcoming infofiles.

group-production, at least one member of the group.
