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.

Science advances by extending our senses beyond the limits of human perception, pushing the boundaries of what we can observe. In photon science, imaging detectors serve as the eyes of science, translating invisible processes into measurable and analysable data. Behind every image lies a deep understanding of how detectors see, respond and perform. At facilities like the European XFEL, the world's most powerful X-ray free-electron laser located in the Hamburg metropolitan area, imaging detectors capture ultrashort X-ray flashes at MHz frame rates and with high dynamic range. Without these advanced detectors, even the brightest X-ray laser beam would remain invisible. They help to reveal what would otherwise stay hidden, such as the structure of biomolecules, the behaviour of novel materials, and matter under extreme conditions. But how do we know they will perform as expected? And how do we design systems capable of “seeing” the invisible? I will take a closer look how imaging technology in large-scale facilities is simulated and designed to make the invisible visible. From predicting detector performance to evaluating image quality, we look at how performance simulation helps scientists and engineers understand the “eyes” of modern science.

Learn from our mistakes during the first iteration of Network Operations for Europe's largest furry convention, Eurofurence. Dieses Jahr hat ein kleines Team aus dem Chaos, Furries und Chaos-Furries ein neues Netzwerk-OC gegründet, um die Eurofurence mit gutem premium 👌 Internetz auszustatten. Wir erzählen von unseren Erfahrungen und den sozialen sowie technischen Herausforderungen.

Neben dem Congress gibt es noch viele andere Chaos-Events, die über das ganze Jahr verteilt stattfinden. Das Easterhegg, die GPN und die MRMCD kennen vermutlich die meisten Chaos-Wesen. Aber was ist eigentlich mit den ganzen kleineren Veranstaltungen?

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.
