= UPCOMING NOISEBRIDGE CHINA TRIP =

'''This is an upcoming Noisebridge China Trip!'''
 

[[Image:NB_China_Trip_bunny_suits.jpg|thumb|right|]]

''Because the first Noisebridge China Trip was so successful,'' 
''I am planning another Hacker Trip To China, including all cities that currently have a hackerspace, and which will culminate at the Beijing Maker Faire.'' 

'''When:''' 4-April-2012 through 24-April-2012. 

'''Flight, transportation, and hotel Info''': We'll each be on our own to book our own air fare to the meeting point on the meeting day: Hong Kong on 4-April (please note that to arrive on 4-April, your flight must leave on 3-April). 

I'm organizing the itinerary and the hotels and other transport. I will pay in advance for all of this. 

'''Where:''' In each of the four cities we go to we'll visit their local hackerspace, and be shown around by local geeks to see geeky things of interest. We'll also have plenty of time to do "normal" tourist things too -- and the places we'll be going have spectacular sights! 

* We'll explore '''Hong Kong''' for 4 days, visiting [http://hkhackerspace.pbworks.com/w/page/28645825/HackJam Hong Kong Hackjam] hackerspace, and be shown around by local geeks. 
*We'll then go to '''Guangzhou, Shenzhen''' for a few days to visit the [http://www.chaihuo.org/ Chaihuo Makerspace] there, visit [http://www.seeedstudio.com Seeed Studio] to meet the cool folks there and to see their facilities, and if they have time we'll also go to [http://www.makerbot.com/ MakerBot Industries] to see what they're up to in their China facilities. We'll also go to the famous [http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/shenzhen/print electronics mall] in Shenzhen. 
*Then '''Shanghai''' for a week to visit [http://www.etonnet.com/ my manufacturer (Etonnet)] that I use for [http://www.tvbgone.com TV-B-Gone] remote controls, where we'll all get to see how products are made, from start to finish, learning how manufacturing works. We'll also visit [http://xinchejian.com/ XinCheJian] hackerspace in Shanghai, Onion Capsule Makerspace in nearby Hangzhou, and there will be time to visit the [http://www.flickr.com/photos/maltman23/4064240200/in/set-72157622640069902/ Shanghai electronics mall]. 
*Our last stop will be '''Beijing''', where we'll be for a week. We'll visit the new [http://site.douban.com/124037/ Beijing Maxpace] hackerspace, and we'll go to the Beijing Maker Faire, the first Maker Faire in China! (which they're calling [http://events.ccc.de/camp/2011/wiki/Hacking_all_the_way_to_China:_Maker_Carnival_China_2012 Maker Carnival China 2012]). We'll have a booth there at the Carnival, so please bring a project (or many) to show off! 

We'll fly home from Beijing on 24-April. (But, of course, you are free to leave whenever you like.) 

'''Cost:''' For the first Noisebridge China trip, I paid about $1k total, including air fare from SF and food and everything. 

This trip will probably be more expensive, since Hong Kong is more expensive than the rest of China. Also, the exchange rate for Chinese currency (Yuan, aka RMB) is now doing better on the world market. 

''Info on the previous Noisebridge China Trip is available on its own wiki page:'' 
[[ChinaTrip|Noisebridge China Trip 1]] 
That first Noisebridge China Trip was inspired by Bunny Huang's [http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/shenzhen/print "geek tour"].
