Lectures, music, art, punk: Join us at the 39th Chaos Communication Congress!

Sun, 28 Sep 2025 16:00:00 +0200

We invite you to enrich our programme with your lectures and the 39C3 with music, art, and punk. The call for participation in four fields is now online.

The Chaos Computer Club (CCC) is inviting to the 39th Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg at the end of December and is now asking for your ideas for lectures. You can also support the best hacker party of the year with your music and art performances and with punk.

Please read our Call for Participation carefully, before submitting ideas. It includes practical tips and guidance on how to best present your submission and how to avoid common mistakes.

We are planning presentations on four stages. We will therefore select around 130 presentations from your submissions, in the following tracks:

Art & Beauty
Chaos Community Creations
Hardware & Making
Ethics, Society & Politics
Science
Security & Hacking

Please note: We are publishing four different calls for participation today. If you submit proposals for stage presentations, music performances, art installations, or punk at our Späti, please do so via the respective calls.

The deadline for all submissions for the stages is October 24, 2025, at 23:59 UTC. We plan to notify accepted speakers by early November. 39C3 will take place from December 27 to 30.

38C3 Chaos Computer Music Club

Mon, 18 Nov 2024 06:00:00 +0000

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.

We are also calling for workshops and talks! If you have an interest in something between music and hacking, and maybe you’ve always wanted to talk about it, we will be happy to hear from you.

To submit your proposals for DJ sets, concerts, talks or workshops, please head over to the Call for Music. If you already submitted to the Call for Art you do not need to submit again. We’ll forward your submission internally. The deadline is 30 November, 23:59 UTC+1.

If you have questions, feel free to reach out to the booking team at 38c3-booking@cccv.de

Let’s recreate minds and bodies and still keep enjoying.

Enjoy and Celebrate Creativity and Curiosity!

We have 2 main music spaces for you at this years camp: Rockmore Booth, and Kemistry Lounge. “Rockmore Booth” will be playing from 2pm to 8pm daily (except on Day 1 starting at 5pm). The “Kemistry Lounge” will be playing from 8pm-5am daily.

With the majority of artists coming from the midst of our community and family we present you an on many levels diverse line-up of various artists. Please check all the dirty details here in our Abfahrplan, you’ll also find further links for most sets. We just updated from 303 to 606, there might be another version 707, 808 or even 909 in the next days. There’ll be a few live-acts, and even some Latin dancing lessons on Friday 8pm.

Analogous to the naming scene of the four big tents (named after four female scientists: Lise Meitner & Marie Curie, Katherine Johnson & Adele Goldberg), we’ve chosen two female pioneers of electronic music as names for the Dj-desks:

Kemistry Lounge (8pm-5am)

Located in a building on the west, alongside Coconut Mall & Royal Raceway, Kemistry Lounge is also near the main bar and the food stalls.
Kemistry is the stage name of Valerie Olukemi A ‘Kemi’ Olusanya, a “leading English drum and bass DJ of the early 1990s, half of duo Kemistry & Storm, and co-founder of the Metalheadz record label. (wikipedia)
Storm (Jayne Conneely) says: “Kemi had always tried to find something where she could be who she was, and look like she was, and achieve something […] She always said, ‘I just want to make a difference.’ […] And she did.” (dazeddigital)

Rockmore Booth (Day 1: 5-8pm, Day 2-5: 5-8pm)

Is next to the main bar, facing south, with a direct view of the fairy dust.
Clara Reisenberg Rockmore was a classical violin prodigy and a virtuoso performer of the theremin: an electronic musical instrument controlled without physical contact; one of the first electronic instrument; originally (also) known as the ætherphone/etherphone.
As she described it herself in an interview: “You must not only hit a note, but you must hit the center of it. You cannot register any of your internal emotion at all. You cannot shake your head, for instance, or sway back and forth on your feet. That would change your tone.” (wikipedia)

Besides our two music spaces, there’ll be a stage in the Family Village with two bands performing for children on Saturday at 2pm and 4pm; as well as all the lovely usual suspects all over: various stages at various villages and clusters present creativity for your curiosity with programs in music, art, culture, and beauty all over camp.

Stand up and celebrate creativity and curiosity with everyone out here!
