Lay-out of the building
The formal programme was orchestrated in the large auditorium at Paradiso. Debates, supported by presentations on the big screen were programmed in a linear fashion. The programme would start at 10 o'clock in the morning. In the afternoon workshops were organized around specific themes. The workshops took place in the large auditorium, the balconies, in the cellar and the dressing rooms of Paradiso. In the centre of the large auditorium was 'the cockpit', a variety of computers that had to facilitate the different presentations. In the back of the large auditorium is the Paradiso light and sound section. In the small auditorium was the Hack Room, which had no formal programme but enabled people to bring their own computer and connect to the network and share information and communication.
