37C3: Art & Beauty Exhibition ANIMAL()CITY: Unleashed!

37C3: Art & Beauty Exhibition ANIMAL()CITY: Unleashed!

EN DE

ANIMAL()CITY: Unleashed! presents the positions of the seven participating international artists as physical exhibits in the CCH entrance area exhibition space, each corresponding with their virtual counterparts in augmented reality.

The selected Art & Beauty work is more difficult than the other sections of the conference program. The artists have articulated themselves through their visual positions, as opposed to lectures or presentations. We sometimes succeed in making art – and beauty! – accessible in the form of the somewhat infamous performance lecture, but the art usually falls by …

37C3: Dressed to hack

37C3: Dressed to hack

EN DE

It is the shibboleth among European nerds on campsites, at the Mate wholesale market and in lecture halls. It often divides the community, has often led to long queues in the past and for many hackers it’s the reliable source of clothing: The Congress Merch.

The wildest hot takes on merch in the run-up to the event usually start with “Why don’t they just …” and the answers to this are rarely obvious without having rocked such a production yourself. That’s why we want to provide a little insight into the motivations, constraints and experiences and grant a …

Meet the 37C3 "Sustainability & Climate Justice" track team

Meet the 37C3 "Sustainability & Climate Justice" track team

EN DE

For several years now, the topics of climate breakdown and (un)sustainability have been addressed by the CCC, because there is no hacking on a dead planet. For example, the CCC was a core member of the first Bits & Bäume conference in 2018, and one year later in 2019 the motto of the 36C3 was ambiguously but spot on “Resource Exhaustion” with the new content track “Resilience and Sustainability” providing for relevant talks and discussions.

This paved the way for this year’s Chaos Communication Congress, one of the biggest gatherings in the hacker world, to continue pursuing the …

FireShonks is dead, long live FireShonks

EN DE

You’ve probably all heard it by now: FireShonks 2023 will not take place in its originally planned form. But: The event will still take place, just with reduced scope and produced by a smaller team.

FireShonks 2022 was a collaboration between several groups, which did not work out this time for different reasons. We, the remaining FireShonks orga, are a subset of r3s (RheinRuhrRemoteStage) and a few additional people. We regret that there has been confusion about the status of FireShonks in recent days.

In addition, we had to switch to our own infrastructure: If you are holding a talk …
