Antonio Vázquez Blanco (Antón)
Despite how widely used the ESP32 is, its Bluetooth stack remains closed source. Let’s dive into the low-level workings of a proprietary Bluetooth peripheral. Whether you are interested in reverse engineering, Bluetooth security, or just enjoy poking at undocumented hardware, this talk may inspire you to dig deeper.
Severin von Wnuck-Lipinski, Hajo Noerenberg
Almost everyone has a household appliance at home, whether it's a washing machine, dishwasher, or dryer. Despite their ubiquity, little is publicly documented about how these devices actually work or how their internal components communicate. This talk takes a closer look at proprietary bus systems, hidden diagnostic interfaces, and approaches to cloud-less integration of appliances from two well-known manufacturers into modern home automation systems.

In unserer „Unnecessarily Complicated Kitchen“ hacken wir die Gesetze der Kulinarik. Ich zeige live, wie Hitze, Chemie und Chaos zusammenwirken, wenn Moleküle tanzen, Dispersionen emulgieren und Geschmack zu Wissenschaft wird. Zwischen Pfanne und Physik entdecken wir, warum Kochen im Grunde angewandtes Debugging ist – und wie man Naturgesetze so würzt, dass sie schmecken.

With PTP 1588, AES67, and SMPTE 2110, we can transmit synchronous audio and video with sub-millisecond latency over the asynchronous medium Ethernet. But how do you make hundreds of devices agree on the exact same nanosecond on a medium that was never meant to care about time? Precision Time Protocol (IEEE 1588) tries to do just that. It's the invisible backbone of realtime media standards like AES67 and SMPTE 2110, proprietary technologies such as Dante, and even critical systems powering high-frequency trading, cellular networks, and electric grids.

Presenting FEX, a translation layer to run x86 apps and games on ARM devices: Learn why x86 is such a pain to emulate, what tricks and techniques make your games fly with minimal translation overhead, and how we are seamless enough that you'll forget what CPU you're using in the first place!

A 595€ wheelchair remote that sends a handful of Bluetooth commands. A 99.99€ app feature that does exactly what the 595€ hardware does. A speed upgrade from 6 to 8.5 km/h locked behind a 99.99€ paywall - because apparently catching the bus is a premium feature. Welcome to the wonderful world of DRM in assistive devices, where already expensive basic mobility costs extra and comes with in-app purchases! And because hackers gonna hack, this just could not be left alone.
Enna Gerhard, Frieder Nake
What power structures are inherent to the field of computer-generated art? In the year 1965, so 60 years ago, the first three exhibitions of art created with the help of computers took place - in part independently of each other. We want to present the interesting aspects of developments since then and discuss them with Frieder Nake, one of the people who exhibited in those very beginnings and followed those developments with a critical attitude.

This presentation examines artistic practices that engage with sociotechnical systems through tactical interventions. The talk proposes art as a form of infrastructural critique and counter-technology. It also introduces a forthcoming HackLab designed to foster collaborative development of open-source tools addressing digital authoritarianism, surveillance capitalism, propaganda infrastructures, and ideological warfare.

Have you ever wondered how the chips and algorithms that made all those electronic music hits work? Us too! At The Usual Suspects we create open source emulations of famous music hardware, synthesizers and effect units. After releasing some emulations of devices around the Motorola 563xx DSP chip, we made further steps into reverse engineering custom silicon chips to achieve what no one has done before: a real low-level emulation of the JP-8000. This famous synthesizer featured a special "SuperSaw" oscillator algorithm, which defined an entire generation of electronic and trance music. The main obstacle was emulating the 4 custom DSP chips the device used, which ran software written with a completely undocumented instruction set. In this talk I will go through the story of how we overcame that obstacle, using a mixture of automated silicon reverse engineering, probing the chip with an Arduino, statistical analysis of the opcodes and fuzzing. Finally, I will talk about how we made the emulator run in real-time using JIT, and what we found by looking at the SuperSaw code.

„Planetary Visions“ with Katja Ruge (Can Love Be Synth/Synthesizerstudio HH, Electric Lights/Planetarium HH) Katja Ruge’s DJ sets are a seamless fusion of Italo, New Wave, Cosmic Sounds, 80s, Dark Disco, and Electro.
RSS Disco
From crackling Kraut and Disco records to hyper produced Techno tracks - dance music has come a long way in the last six decades, and was always strongly influenced by evolving technology. Dance music’s history is a feedback system between culture and circuitry. Each new invention—from the disco subwoofer to today’s neural-driven mastering tools—reshapes sound itself. RSS Disco’s timeline approach celebrates this continuum: a story of machines learning to groove, and humans learning to listen differently through them.
Steve
Als Part der ToxicFamily, die seit mittlerweile 25 Jahren Label, elektronisches Magazin, Veranstalter und einfach eine Institution in Frankfurt ist, fördert Steve, der übrigens einer der dienstältesten Residents des Tanzhaus West in Frankfurt ist, aktiv die Frankfurter Underground Clubszene und vor allem den Nachwuchs. Ob es ein Gig bei der Toxic Family Radio Show im lokalen FM Radio ist, ein CDJ Lehrgang oder einfach nur aufmunterte Worte während eines Sets - viele Frankfurter DJs haben eine Geschichte über Steve zu erzählen. Wenn Steve House Musik spielt, sieht man oft DJ Kollegen mit gespitzen Ohren an der Bar stehen - oder auch mal mitten auf der Tanzfläche - weil das Barpersonal selbst auf der Theke tanzt.

For the Love of Music. Nothing else.
Afidissima & Alice
Afidissima and Alice, two millennial stereotypes sharing music tips as emotional currency. Gabby radio host Afidissima delivers genre-chaotic sets drenched in dubby vibes and oozing with groove. A relentless cratedigger with questionable priorities. Alice unites musical moments and moods that refuse to be united. Seductive, whimsical, followed by familiar paths, so as not to upset the ear and inner balance. Mixed feelings becoming multiple emotions. Everything as usual – just enhanced momentum.

Dj Sloush aka Spitz + Zarrt
The berlin based artist duo is working under different alias solo, in duos or collectives since 2011. They are sound artists, DJs, part of Cashmere Radio (Berlin), curators, event organizers, performers and multimedia artists. “Dj Sloush aka Spitz + Zarrt aka Fellmaus will make you happy. There’s gonna be these sounds coming from the speakers, new otherworldly ones mixed with seemingly familiar yet undiscovered natural feeling waves of moods, or maybe hot and twirling rapid fire bass jumping trippin balls ones. Either way they’ll provide you with a guaranteed enjoyment of the infinite kind.”
