  hardhack at sigint2010 in cologne

  Uncategorized No Comments

  

  big news this year, hardhack will move from berlin to cologne and become a subconference of the ccc’s SIGINT 2010. this weekend i will release the hardhack call for workshops, and in the meantime if you want to participate in SIGINT with a talk instead of a hands-on hardware workshop, please see SIGINT’s Call For Papers.

  hardhack will have an entire floor at SIGINT, what is traditionally a hackcenter at a CCC conference, and this year will be reserved just for hardhack’s hands-on workshops. sign ups will be a bit different this year, and i will release more information this week about how this will work. in the meantime, ladies and gentlemen, fire up your soldering irons! hardhack 2010 will be May 22, 23, and 24, 2010 at Komed Im Mediapark, Im Mediapark 7, 50670 Cologne, Germany.

  into hardware

  Uncategorized No Comments

  

  i am so happy that all of you are as into hardware as i am! just a quick note to say i will start putting the workshops into a sort of a schedule later today. there are some workshops that can only be on friday and some that are over two days, so those can’t change days. i will slot the times loosely, but be sure to drop me a note after i post the schedule if there is a conflict for what you wanted to hack on.

  for those of you who have the following, i highly recommend you bring them with you:
  - a soldering iron
  - wire strippers
  - helping hands or circuit chip holder
  - solder
  - small screwdrivers
  - other info that is in the individual workshop list for what you might need

  there will be wifi (wlan) on site, courtesy of the c-base.

  also, i’m looking for a couple of volunteers to help document the workshops with photos and notes and put them up in the hardhack blog. contact me if you want to help out with documentation: fbz att hardhack dott org

  call for workshops and demos

  Uncategorized No Comments

  

  hardhack will be all hands-on workshops and/or demos. the due date for workshop/demo submissions is March 31st. submit your workshop/demo to mail att hardhack dott org with the following info:

  • workshop/demo title
  • workshop/demo description
  • workshop/demo time requirement (please estimate as well as you can)
  • your contact info: email, website, cellphone number
  • approximate parts cost for participants
  • required and suggested materials for participants to bring (examples: laptop, usb/serial adaptor, hackable stuff)
  • any questions you may have

  this year once workshops are accepted, there will be a sign up list for each workshop to determine which ones make the cut. this should reduce the empty / too-full workshop syndrome and allow for a maximum of hardware hacking!
