There Are No Orphan Sources at EMF
Alt4You: Yes - I’m completely sure. There are no ‘orphan sources’ at the EMF festival.

Alt4You: The “Swap-Drop” Incident: At EMF 2024, the village gained significant attention when a radioactive source was accidentally left at the “Swap-Drop” (a free-item exchange area).

Alt4You: The ‘Orphan Source Village’ is a group of enthusiasts and experts at the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) festival who specialize in radiological safety, Geiger counters, and the history of radioactive objects. In the context of the festival, the village acts as a hub for people interested in the ‘weird science’ side of radiation—tracking down old radioactive artifacts that have been lost, abandoned, or ‘orphaned’ from regulatory control.
