Das Bridges Kammerorchester hackt die klassische Musikszene, indem es die Regeln des traditionellen Konzertbetriebs aufbricht: Musiker*innen mit und ohne Flucht- und Migrationsbiografie bringen Instrumente wie Oud, Tar, Kamanche oder Daf in die europäische Orchestertradition. Statt überwiegend Werke verstorbener männlicher, europäischer Komponisten zu spielen, komponieren die Mitglieder ihre Musik selbst – ein radikaler Perspektivwechsel hin zu Vielfalt und Selbstbestimmung. Im Vortrag zeigen sie anhand von Hörbeispielen und persönlichen Geschichten, wie diese Hacks entstehen und machen im Anschluss in einem Konzert die musikalische Vielfalt live erlebbar.

Science is hard and research into the usage of the Tor network is especially so. Since it was designed to counter suveillance, it gathering reliable information is difficult. As a consequence, the studies we do have, have yielded very different results. This talk investigates the root causes of contradicting studies by highlighting how slight changes in methodology or data selection completely change the results and thereby our understanding of what the Darknet is. Whether you consider it the last bastion of freedom or a haven of crime, this talk will tell you where to look and what to ignore in order to confirm your current opinion. And in case you are open to changing it, we have some food for thought for you.

EntrySign opened the door to custom microcode on AMD Zen CPUs earlier this year. Using a weakness in the signature verification we can load custom microcode updates and modify behavior of stock AMD Zen 1-5 CPUs. While AMD has released patches to address this weakness on some CPUs, we can still use unpatched systems for our analysis. In this talk we cover what we found out about microcode, what we saw in the microcode ROM, the tooling we build, how we worked to find out more and how you can write & test your own microcode on your own AMD Zen systems. We have our tools up on https://github.com/AngryUEFI for everyone to play around with and hopefully help us understand microcode more than we currently do.

Hegemony Eroding is an ongoing art project exploring how generative AI reflects and distorts cultural representation. Its name speaks to its core ambition: to bear witness to the slow erosion of Western cultural hegemony by exposing the cracks in which other cultures shine through. This talk will discuss the blurry boundary between legitimate cultural representation and prejudice in AI-generated media and how generative AI can be used as a tool to explore humanity's digital foot print. It is permeated by a critique of purely profit-driven AI development and it's tendency to blunt artistic exploration and expression.

Denise Frey macht elektroakustische Ambient-Musik – ruhig, vielschichtig, atmosphärisch. Mit Saxophon, MPC, Effektgeräten und einem feinen Gespür für Klang formt sie in ihren Konzerten Klanglandschaften, die einladen zum Loslassen, Lauschen, Entspannen. Ihre Musik entsteht live – improvisiert, organisch, unmittelbar.
