We are calling for music nerds who want to perform for other music nerds at the 38C3 Chaos Computer Music Club and at the Chill Floor.

Whether you’ve built your own instrument, use technology in imaginative ways to express yourself with music, are a contemporary DJ emitting genre highlights far outside the mainstream, a band with a constructive political message, or anything in between, we are calling for you to present at 38C3 – from A like Ambient to Z like Zydeco.

Please note that 38C3 is not a music event and we can not pay you as much as you might usually expect to receive on the market. …

In what has become a cherished tradition, the 38C3 content teams want to take the pulse of our community and offer you a deal that’s really hard to refuse: You get an early look at what our teams think are the best talks and presentations that will make for a well-rounded 38C3 Fahrplan, and in return you allow us to identify clusters of talks that we should avoid scheduling at the same time.

All you have to do is 1) click on all the talks you want to see, 2) hit submit and 3) skip step three! We’ll take it from there and let the number crunchers generate a collision map that will magically …

Chaosmentors will be at the 38C3! Interested Mentors and Mentees please registers on our chaosmentors platform before the 10th of December at 23:59 o’clock.

The 37C3 content teams have been sorting, discussing, ranking, shuffling, haggling and hustling for more stage-hours and are proud to present you a preliminary look at the first 104 confirmed of around 125 accepted lectures and performances at this year’s Congress.

It’s been an exhausting process with 600 submissions in six tracks and a handful of invited presentations meaning that some tracks had to chose 1 lecture from 10 others not making it into the final Fahrplan. If you are among the ones getting a sad email, rest assured that you are in excellent company and encourage you to …

To answer questions regarding Accessibility at Congress:

• simply bring your assistants to the entrance

Auch dieses Jahr strebt der Chaos Communication Congress an, als Bildungsveranstaltung in einigen Bundesländern anerkannt zu werden. Damit sind Congress-Teilnehmer in der Lage, für die Zeit der Veranstaltung Bildungsurlaub zu beantragen, und müssen nicht ihren normalen Erholungsurlaub dafür verwenden.
