Call for Interpreters: translate 38C3!

EN DE

Planning for Congress, unsure what to do there, interested in applying your impressive language skills? If you are multilingual and fluent in German, English and maybe other languages, please consider joining the interpreters team, c3lingo.

We interpret ALL talks in the three main halls and the two community stages live and in real-time. German talks are interpreted into English, and vice versa. Our work is transmitted live in the lecture halls, streamed to the Internet, and recordings are published on CCC sites and YouTube. We have another channel where we interpret into more languages, this is transmitted and published in the same way.

That is a lot of material to interpret and in order to succeed, we need YOU. With the “more languages” channel, you have the chance to contribute in an even more special way if you can interpret into another interesting language (from English or German). We mostly feature the French or Spanish language on this channel, but if your skills differ, just let us know – especially if you can bring along a few interpreters for the same target language. Sometimes, we might even use this channel for interesting things that are not (strictly) interpretations.

Don’t be shy. If you are uncertain whether you’re good enough, chances are that you’ll do just fine. In case you‘re struggling, we will take over from you and talk it over later, no harm done.

Here are the steps to join us:

  • Subscribe to our mailing list: use this form or send an empty e‑mail to “talk-subscribe(at)lists.c3lingo.org”. Write a quick intro to the mailing list after you’ve completed your subscription.
  • If you are new to interpreting with us, join one of our onboarding meetings. These will be on Mumble. Some details on Mumble setup can be found on wiki.c3lingo.org/remote. We meet on the server mumble.c3lingo.org in the channel c3lingo-team/interpreters-c3lingo-meeting. Join us there at one of these times:
    • 4 December (Wed), 19:00 CET
    • 7 December (Sat), 11:00 CET

So, take this opportunity and help us bring C3 to an even wider international audience.

For more information, you can contact us on Mastodon at @c3lingo@chaos.social and #c3lingo, or via mail to talk(at)lists.c3lingo.org (after subscribing).

See (and possibly hear) you at 38C3!
