Description Our aim is to motivate as many people as possible to, at some point participate in a huge socat_ring_of_fire. Essentially this means that they join a ring of network port proxies forwarding to each other so that any packet inserted at one point will circle the ring indefinitely.

We will prepare a script to setup the proxy ring using socat, flashing the terminal every time a packet containing the string "fire!", in the hope that we will be seeing the packet running through the whole room. We will bring a server to run a public git (for the necessary code), probably some presentation poster, beamer or other display to explain the idea and use the whole setup to bring together all those people who habitually automate or chronically overtool their lives. Special requirements: due to long standing relations, it would be nice to be situated in the vicinity of Chaos West, the most flashy Chaos from the West.

The Internet has become an invisible part of everything, we want to make it visible and heard again. (Or "burn" or "flicker" or "shout") A single packet containing the string "fire!" shall traverse the whole congress in a large circle made of connected proxy forwarders. It will create a little flash on the participating terminal screens every time it passes by — visualising its transport and probably providing a nice view of all the people connected to each other. We will bring a server to run a public git (for the necessary code), probably some presentation poster, beamer or other display to explain the idea and use the whole setup to bring together all those people who habitually automate or chronically overtool their lives. Special requirements: due to long standing relations, it would be nice to be situated in the vicinity of Chaos West, the most flashy Chaos from the West.
