Chaospager - How to construct an Open Pager System for c3 (en)

Max, Julian

In this talk, we will give an introduction into the project (i.e. how it all started at 38c3 and why we are here now), provide an in-depth review of how the development process of our pager worked and what our future goals are. In our introduction, we will talk about the origin and exploration phase of the inital pager idea (i.e. how we went from the idea of bringing POCSAG Pager transmitter to 38c3, over a cable-bound prototype, to a first working pager on a proper PCB). We will also present our plans of connecting our POCSAG transmitter infrastructure to THOT (CERTs own dispatch software). For our in-depth review about the project, we explain how we encountered major reception problems, how we analyzed them at easterhegg22 and conducted experiments there, and why we are opting for a custom HF frontend design instead of an already-made one from chinese vendors. Moreover, we provide an overview of our transmitter devices and give some advice on how to replicate those. Lastly, we will discuss further challenges and what our next goals are. If we are reaching our milestone until 39c3, we will also give a live demo of the system.
Cracking open what makes Apple's Low-Latency WiFi so fast (en)

Henri Jäger

This talk presents Apple's link-layer protocol Low-Latency WiFi and how it achieves its real-time capabilities to enable Continuity features like Sidecar Display and Continuity Camera. We make more kernel logging available on iOS and build a log aggregator that combines and aligns system- and network-level log sources from iOS and macOS.
In-house electronics manufacturing from scratch: How hard can it be? (en)

Augustin Bielefeld, Alexander Willer

Why is electronics manufacturing hard? Can it ever be made easy and more accessible? What will it take to relocate industrial production to Europe? We share with you what we learned when we spent more than 1 year setting up our own production line in our office in Hamburg. Turns out a lot of the difficulties are rarely talked about or hidden behind "manufacturing is high CAPEX". Come and learn with us the nitty gritty details of batch reflow ovens, stencil printing at scale, and how OpenPnP is a key enabler in our process. While we are far from done with this work, we hope to see others replicate it and collectively reclaim the ownership of the means of electronics production.
freiheit.exe - Utopien als Malware (de)

Christiane Mudra

"freiheit.exe“ ist eine Lecture über die ideologischen Rootkits des Silicon Valley. Sie schlägt den Bogen von den italienischen Futuristen zu den heutigen Tech-Feudalisten, vom Akzelerationismus zur Demokratieskepsis der Libertären, von Tolkien zur PayPal-Mafia. Basierend auf den Recherchen zu meinem Theaterstück "freiheit.exe. Utopien als Malware", in dem journalistische Analyse auf performative Darstellung trifft.
Xous: A Pure-Rust Rethink of the Embedded Operating System (en)

bunnie, Sean "xobs" Cross

Xous is a message-passing microkernel implemented in pure Rust, targeting secure embedded applications. This talk covers three novel aspects of the OS: hardware MMU support (and why we had to make our own chip to get this feature), how and why we implemented the Rust standard library in Rust (instead of calling the C standard library, like most other Rust platforms), and how we combine the power of Rust semantics with virtual memory to create safe yet efficient asynchronous messaging primitives. We conclude with a short demo of the OS running on a new chip, the "Baochip-1x", which is an affordable, mostly-open RTL SoC built in 22nm TSMC, configured expressly for running Xous.

A space odyssey #2: How to study moon rocks from the Soviet sample return mission Luna 24 (en)

Paul Koetter

It is 1976 and the USA long stopped going to the Moon when a Soviet automatic landing station called Luna 24 descends to the Lunar surface. It touches down on 3.3 Billion year old rock formations at a place no mission has ever gone before. What exactly happened remains a mystery to this day, but the space probe managed to take a 2.3 m long drill core from the Lunar regolith, packaged the sample in a genius way and launched it for its voyage to Earth. Some days later the sample entered earths atmosphere and landed in remote Siberia and ended up in our hands more than 50 Years later. We tell the story of the sample, the people that brought it to Earth and how we analyzed it with the newest methods including µm sized high intensity X-ray beams, 30kV electron beams and LN2 cooled infrared spectrometers.
Chaos Communication Chemistry: DNA security systems based on molecular randomness (en)

Anne Lüscher

**Over the past few decades, nucleic acids have increasingly been investigated as alternative data storage media and platforms for molecular computing. This talk builds on past research and introduces another branch to the field: DNA cryptography based on random chemistry. This technology provides a platform for conceiving new security architectures that bridge the physical with the digital world.**

What does knitting have to do with espionage? Can embroidery help your mental health? This talk shows how the skills to create textile art have enabled people to resist and to persist under oppressive regimes for centuries. And it offers ways to keep doing so.
CPU Entwicklung in Factorio: Vom D-Flip-Flop bis zum eigenen Betriebssystem (de)

PhD (Philipp)

Factorio ist ein Fabriksimulationsspiel mit integriertem Logiksystem. Dies ermöglichte mir den Bau einer CPU, die unter anderem aus einer 5-stufiger Pipeline, einer Forwarding Logikeinheit, Interrupt Handling sowie einem I/O Interface besteht. Über einen selbst geschriebenen Assembler konnte ich ein eigenes Betriebssystem und Programme wie Minesweeper oder Snake integrieren. Der Talk soll euch zeigen, wie sich klassische Computerarchitektur in einem völlig anderen technischen Kontext umsetzen lässt und wo dabei überraschend echte Probleme der CPU-Entwicklung auftreten. Kommt mit auf die Reise: Vom Blick auf den gesamten Computer bis hinunter zu den einzelnen Logikgattern ist es nur eine Mausradbewegung entfernt!

Textiles 101: Fast Fiber Transform (en)

octoprog

Textiles are everywhere, yet few of us know how they’re made. This talk aims to give you an overview over the complete transformation from fiber to finished textile. We'll be exploring fiber properties, spinning, and techniques like weaving, knitting, crochet, braiding, and knotting, followed by finishing methods such as dyeing, printing, and embroidery. You’ll learn why not only fiber but also structure matters, and how to make or hack textiles on your own without relying on fast fashion or industrial tools.
51 Ways to Spell the Image Giraffe: The Hidden Politics of Token Languages in Generative AI (en)

Ting-Chun Liu, Leon-Etienne Kühr

Generative AI models don't operate on human languages – they speak in **tokens**. Tokens are computational fragments that deconstruct language into subword units, stored in large dictionaries. These tokens encode not only language but also political ideologies, corporate interests, and cultural biases even before model training begins. Social media handles like *realdonaldtrump*, brand names like *louisvuitton*, or even *!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* exist as single tokens, while other words remain fragmented. Through various artistic and adversarial experiments, we demonstrate that tokenization is a political act that determines what can be represented and how images become computable through language.
Reverse engineering the Pixel TitanM2 firmware (en)

Lessons from Building an Open-Architecture Secure Element (en)

Jan Pleskac

The talk will be about our experience from building an open-architecture secure element from the ground up. It explains why openness became part of the security model, how it reshaped design and development workflows, and where reality pushed back — through legal constraints, third-party IP, or export controls. It walks through the secure boot chain, attestation model, firmware update flow, integration APIs, and the testing framework built for external inspection. Real examples of security evaluations by independent researchers are presented, showing what was learned from their findings and how those exchanges raised the overall security bar. The goal is to provoke discussion on how open collaboration can make hardware more verifiable, adaptable, auditable and while keeping secure.
Variable Fonts — It Was Never About File Size (en)

Bernd

A brief history of typographic misbehavior or intended and unintended uses of variable fonts. Nine years after the introduction of variable fonts, their most exciting uses have little to do with what variable fonts originally were intended for and their original promise of smaller file sizes. The talk looks at how designers turned a pragmatic font format into a field for experimentation — from animated typography and uniwidth button text to pattern fonts and typographic side effects with unintended aesthetics. Using examples from projects such as TypoLabs, Marjoree, Kario (the variable font that’s used as part of the 39C3 visual identity), and Bronco, we’ll explore how variable fonts evolved from efficiency tools into creative systems — and why the most interesting ideas often emerge when technology is used in unintended ways.
Prometheus: Reverse-Engineering Overwatch (en)

breakingbread

Über europäische Grenzen hinweg auf klinischen Daten rechnen - aber sicher! (de)

Hendrik Ballhausen

Der Trend geht dahin, aus Gesundheitsdaten große zentralisierte Datenbanken aufzubauen. Eine datensparsame Alternative dazu ist, in einem verschlüsseltem Netzwerk gemeinsam auf verteilten privaten Daten zu rechnen, ohne sie miteinander teilen zu müssen. Perspektivisch können so demokratischere Datenströme geschaffen werden, die Patient:innen als aktiv Teilhabende statt als passive Datenquellen einbinden. Kommt mit auf eine Reise, die vor sechs Jahren in Deutschland gestartet ist und jetzt die erste europäische klinische Studie mit Secure Multiparty Computation (SMPC) realisiert hat.
Auf die Dauer hilft nur Power: Herausforderungen für dezentrale Netzwerke aus Sicht der Soziologie (de)

Marco Wähner

Der Vortrag diskutiert Herausforderungen dezentraler Netzwerke aus soziologischer Perspektive. Als dezentrale Netzwerke werden technische Infrastrukturen verstanden, die nicht von einer zentralen Autorität, sondern verteilt über Instanzen zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Nutzer:innen profitieren von dieser Infrastruktur, nutzen beispielsweise das Fediverse oder das Tor-Netzwerk, ohne zur Infrastruktur beizutragen. Zugleich können dezentrale Netzwerke nur dann bestehen, wenn hinreichende Ressourcen von Personen oder Organisationen mobilisiert werden, um das Netzwerk überhaupt zur Verfügung zu stellen. Dies führt zur originären Instabilität dezentraler Netzwerke, wenn nicht der Weg der Kommodifizierung des Nutzer:innenverhaltens eingeschlagen wird. Aufbauend auf dieser Zustandsbeschreibung, werden Bedingungen erörtert, um Kollektivgüter wie dezentrale Netzwerke organisatorisch (und nicht technisch) herzustellen. Hierzu zählen Partizipation oder die Idee einer öffentlichen Grundfinanzierung. Der Vortrag wird neben soziologischen Ideen und harten Zahlen auch durch eine ordentliche Portion Idealismus zu Fragen der Souveränität und Autonomität in der Digitalisierung motiviert.
Machine Vision – Vom Algorithmus zum Baumpilz im digitalen Metabolismus (de)

Thomas Knüsel

Milliarden von Kameras produzieren täglich Bilder, die zunehmend von Maschinen analysiert werden. In dieser Lecture Performance beleuchten wir die Entwicklung des maschinellen Sehens – von den frühen algorithmischen Ansätzen bis zu den heutigen Anwendungen – und schauen, wie verschiedene Künstler:innen diese Technologien nutzen und reflektieren. Anhand der beiden Arbeiten „Throwback Environment” und „Fomes Fomentarius Digitalis” betrachten wir die Nutzung des maschinellen Sehens in einem künstlerischen Feedback-Loop. Die Arbeiten machen sichtbar, was die eingesetzten Algorithmen sehen und in welchen Mustern sie operieren.

The 39c3 Drag Show (en)

Keks

Finally a drag show at the chaos! Blinking lights, colorful outfits, and queers everywhere already seems normal at the congress. So how can it be, that all of this did not come together as drag on stage?! It is time for a really awesome, great drag show at the 39c3! And to show right away how divers drag is, a wonderful cast of drag artists of various genders and expressions can spread their queer joy and art for the audience. The show is hosted by Milky Gay, the nerdiest drag king from NRW, who does not only want to throw glitter at the congress incognito this year. And he is bringing an amazing cast with him Bingus Bongus (Drag Queen, Hamburg) Neuro Spicy (Drag King, NRW) Missass Nostalgia (Drag Queen, NRW) and Kaín Mensch (Drag Thing, Hamburg) will bring their queer art to finally merge chaos and drag! Everyone is welcome, we are trying to have as little barriers as possible to come and watch. No blinking lights during the show (no guarantee for the path there and acts before and after), Music Club accessible with mobility aids and wheel chairs (ask assigned angles). Mostly standing room, few seats at the side might not allow for a good view of the show. Content notes for certain parts of the show include death, cancer, violence, fake weapons, and sexual violence, and will be announced in time so people can leave and come back afterwards. Cheering is encouraged, so it might get loud. (more details tba). Please be nice to each other and especially help short people as well as queers to find a spot where they can see enough. Also, as drag is expensive, there will be a tipping round in the end - please bring some cash if you consider tipping the artists, but of course you are also welcome either way.

Felix Kubin (de)

Felix Kubin

Felix Kubin, funkensprühender Spannungs- und Weltenwandler aus Hamburg, Verachter der Nüchternheit, lenkt die musikalische Kompassnagel Richtung Stolperdisko, Art Pop und „gute Nervmusik“. Das Tanzbein zappelt, aber die Beine laufen in verschiedene Richtungen, denn sie haben sich noch nicht synchronisiert. Hier erklingen Songs am Rande des Nervenzusammenbruchs, "Musik für junge Leute" und alle, die nicht sterben wollen. Vor allem haben es ihm die obskuren Musikversuche der Heimstudios vergangener Fostex-Generationen angetan, die Art Brut und ihre Einfärbungen durch billige, leicht zu demolierende Technologien. Felix Kubins musikalische Adoleszenz wurde durch eine Zeit geprägt, in der sich die Szenen der Kunst und Musik stark durchdrangen und Songtitel wie "Die Gesunden kommen", "Adrenalin lässt das Blut kochen" und "Hosen, die nicht aneinander passen" kein Stirnrunzeln verursachten. Eine Zeit also, in der sich die Popmusik weit aus dem Fenster lehnte und die Luft einer fremden, seltsamen Welt atmete.
