38th Jäynä competition is on!

This academic year we will be celebrating the 38th Jäynä competition! Stay tuned for extra awesomeness.

The 38th Jäynä Competition is on!

All AYY members can take part in the Jäynä Competition with a team consisting of 1-8 persons and 1-3 jäynäs which are all considered separate entries to the competition. Documentation regarding jäynäs that are taking part in the competition are to be submitted to the judges by the to-be-announced deadline. Any jäynäs executed or documented after this date are however eligible to take part in the next year's Jäynä Competition.

In 2016, the trophy for the most valuable police work was given to a traffic camera at Kehä I, when innovative tech students decorated as the “the police of the year”. This prank was universally amusing to everyone, including to the police themselves.

Plan

A successful jäynä starts with a solid idea and careful background work. How to set up the jäynä? How do you assure the target? What’s the twist? How to make it fun?

Execute

Well done is half the victory: a winning idea comes to life with careful execution and a sprinkle of inspiration. What tools or other material do you need? How do you split roles within your team?

Document

A successful jäynä turns into a winning jäynä with well-thought documentation so that the process and the feeling grips the crowd. You can document with audio, video, photos, or whatever comes to mind!

Submit

Finally all you need to do is to submit the spectacular jäynä to the competition and send it to the judges. The finalists are announced later in the spring, ant they get to enjoy VIP seats at the Jäynä Finalé!
