Call for Angels

Dear living entities, we’re almost there: divoc 2022 will be opening it’s doors in a few days. So we’ll be needing the help of additional angels: heralds, signal angels, translation angels, welcome angels, but also stream watchers and chatroom observers. Please give us a short note under divoc@neanderfunk.de so that we know who’ll be coming to help us.

Thank you.

Let’s build bridges between our accustomed bubbles, places to exchange ideas, to meet new creatures or just to see old acquaintances again.

There’s more than enough space, and we hope that this divoc’s world will be as colourful as last year’s (at least!).

To bring some amount of cohesion to this chaos, we’ve decided to publish a styleguide on bb3-style.betalars.de

There’s also a Logo-generator on bb3.tils.pw

If you want to dock your map to our lobby, please send an email with the name of your assembly and a publicly-reachable link to a git-repository of …

We’re 36C3’s Resilience and Sustainability content team and want to show you just our bit of work that helped making this year’s Fahrplan as amazing as it has turned out.

Our team consists of hackers and scientists, tinkerers and PhDs and was formed for 34C3 when we felt that the conference was developing a blind spot between complete destruction of all the IT things and the fascinations for the resulting apocalypse. We wanted to give a stage to new and shiny useful technology for a better and more resilient world – with actual prototypes!

This year’s motto “resource exhaustion” added a …
