Greetings

Dear reader, As we gather for the 5th Genki ever it seems like it was only yesterday we started it with 200 fantastic guests in Valby of 2009. You know who you guys are! We are happy to bring you another instance of Genki this time in a new venue here in Farum where we at Genki keep to our spirit and try to keep Genki fresh and innovative from year to year. For every second year we have held Genki we have moved, but you faithful fans have moved with us. For the new ones in the crowd we hope that you will have your first, but not last taste of the atmosphere that is Genki.

It has been with the highest pleasure that all us volunteers have worked together to create what I consider to be the best convention gathering in Denmark, and I am glad to have you all here to share the ride.

Please enjoy the work our fantastic crew has put together over the past months, and I personally hope you have an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Rules The four golden free Hugs Rules: 1. Never ask others if they “wouldn’t want a hug“, as it makes some feel uncomfortable. Let them come to you if they want one.

2. Never stick your sign in people’s faces, or follow them around, to bring their attention to the fact that you’re holding a sign.

3. Never block doors, entrances, or areas with high amounts of traffic at the convention.

4. Respect a “no.” Not everyone are as happy about physical contact with people they don’t know.

Photography Rules: Everyone is allowed to take pictures and film at Genki, however, you must follow the rules of Danish press ethics and laws on privacy, the most important of which we have emphasized below, as well as a few rules by us: §1. When taking a photo or recording a specific person (e.g. a portrait photo), you must have permission from that person as well as notify them of what the picture will be used for. Failing to do so makes the product illegal to publish in any shape or form (even on Facebook). §2. You do not need permission to take a general photograph of an event during the con. However, you are by law obligated to delete the photo should one of the people whose picture was taken ask for it. Any compromises are to be done privately. §3. If you have gained permission to take a picture of a person, you are no longer obligated by law to delete the picture, even if they change their mind later. However, this only applies if you use the photo within the frames of what you notified them of using it for. So people, please be 100% sure what you say okay to.

Copyright of photos and video footage belongs to the photographers and movie makers, however, it is entirely within Genki’s legal rights to limit how the photos/footage may be used and to demand for photos or parts of footage to be removed. §5.
