A great weekend came to an end

As an organizing team we would like to thank everyone who made Evoke 2018 possible: all the nice visitors, those who contributed to the competitions, the mind blowing live acts and inspiring speakers!

We gathered some impressions from the party on the roundup page. Some links on releases, photos and videos have been added already. Drop us a note in case something should be missing.

Evoke 2019 is already scheduled: mark the 16th to 18th of August in your calendar. 

Meanwhile we would like to see you again at one of the other great demoparties. And thanks again for another great edition of Evoke!

Netcologne Gigabit Internet at Evoke

In recent years Evoke has had issues with scaling the bandwidth for our Internet connection; the venue has only been able to deliver a single 2 Mbit/s connection. Luckily, we've been getting help from Viprinet, who has been able to combine all available LTE networks into single faster one, giving us a way better internet connection so far. If it hadn't been for their help, all Evoke visitors would have had to share the same 2 Mbit/s connection!

But this year the Evoke location, AbenteuerhallenKalk, has finally been connected to Netcologne's fiber network, providing us with a much faster connection. But the good news don't stop here... Netcologne has also stepped up as a sponsor, and has decided to splice in a few additional fiber cables, and bumping Evoke's internet connection up to a massive 1 Gbit/s!

So this year we will hook up that 1 Gigabit to the Viprinet setup for extra redundancy.

To make a long story short: Everyone should be excited about that extra bandwidth that we got through being hooked up to Netcologne's Corporate/Giga network.

Thanks a lot Netcologne.
