science space Event:
Chaos Communication Camp 2011 Abstract: Our mission is to provide financial and organizational support to open communities in shared physical spaces who use innovative methods and technology in hands-on education. We'll speak to the global community about the progress in America. Hacker and maker spaces are where people go to teach and learn their passions. Even as each space typically shares a common set of values – transparency, hands-on, collaboration – they are all tremendously different in terms of structure, funding sources, and sustainability. While a huge movement to create new hacker and maker spaces has been catalyzed in the United States, in part because of the Hackerspace Design Patterns release from the 2007 CCCamp, the sustainability of these spaces and the movement they represent is far from certain. The School Factory, a non-profit organization that formed an early American hackerspace/makerspace called Bucketworks in 2002, has been extrapolating the models and values of these spaces into programming that helps communities understand and take advantage of potential in the maker and hacker movements. Banding together, four established spaces have launched the Space Federation, which provides a sharing of best practices and fiscal infrastructure amongst each other and to interested communities. By linking our resources we are able to help other facilitators launch and sustain their own spaces. Resources take the form of fiscal sponsorship, a governance and taxation support model for donations that gives these spaces non-profit status without the overhead and delays of supporting their own legal status. Guidelines and programming that help spaces build healthy community by connecting their members on a personal level are also a focus. This is not a franchising of spaces but a celebration of individuation while ensuring the administrivia which often kills spaces is taken care of efficiently and effectively. We are a segue from the current culture into a new world of self-empowerment, involved communities, and free sharing of knowledge. But these ideals must exist in the current paradigm until they become the norm. In short, we still have to figure out how to pay rent. In the meantime, American schools and libraries are failing. Conservative government officials are eliminating teachers and setting standards which the current educational system cannot meet. Schools are decreasingly preparing students for work within a global economy, and struggle to stay apace with the technological and social advances brought about by the dedicated volunteer work of the open source community. Similarly, public libraries in America struggle to retain relevance when books are available online, and rules require silence. The community-building purpose of a library, and the free access to knowledge it represents, is an idea at risk in a modern political culture of conservatism. Low income and smaller communities will pay the price of lost innovation and learning for their citizens. Globally, countries wildly differ in terms of their legal structures and cultural support for hackerspaces and makerspaces. Education systems are equally variable, in some nations still biased towards certain genders, age groups, and skill domains. We believe that hackerspaces and their relatives are primordial seeds in a new system of global learning and education that spans generations, interests, and political fashions. These communities represent a low-cost, highly effective alternative to overly burdensome systems of public learning and the public distribution of knowledge and potential. It may take many generations for these environments to have a lasting impact on civilization. If we start good conversations with governments, communities, and businesses today - along with amongst ourselves - we can ensure that every possible value these spaces can contribute to global society is developed for the longer term. Challenges Faced by the Hackerspace and Makerspace Movement Clique-ish social communities Financial challenges Difficult to insure Unsympathetic landlords Challenging infrastructure requirements Not well understood by general public Dis-integrative structures Zoning and classification “but they’ll see the big board” - the perceived threat of transparency Inconsistent cultural norms Informal environments create barriers to entry Questions we would like to discuss with the CCC community: How does the hackerspace/makerspace movement look globally? In America? What has changed since 2007? Since 2002? What spaces are in the Space Federation? What are their experiences? What is the Space Federation? What is the School Factory? What is the Space Kit? How is it related to the Hackerspace Design Patterns presentation? What do we have in the Space Kit so far? - we have the steps but need a way to take people through it. It includes more of things like how to assess a neighborhood and local government, less of what tools you should have. What does it still need? Why is this important? (not just in USA but globally) What does having global concept of spaces like these mean for future humanity? What has been working? What hasn’t been working? What do we need help with? Conclusion: We would like to engage the CCC community in an open discussion on these questions, and facilitate a separate co-working session to further develop tools and models that will extend the potential of the hackerspace and makerspace movement across the globe. There will be LEGOs.

[Charlie] from Null Space Labs in Los Angeles, California sent in this fun little video as an introduction to their hackerspace. Going a bit askew from the traditional “walk through” method of a tour, they decide to first attempt semi-successfully to fly a quadcopter, film some police commotion, then show off some projects in progress.

This is space invaders on the large-scale. To give you an idea of just how big this is, that’s a street lamp to the left. It’s being played on the side of a building, but it’s not really done the easy way. We’ve seen gaming on the sides of buildings by using projectors, but this [...]

The Swiss plan to clean up the near-space environment. They just announced a debris removal device which they plan to launch in three to five years. The first goal of the program is to scoop up two satellites. Both of them are Swiss owned, but there’s something very James Bond like that pops into our heads [...]

Last semester, [Peter], [Jared], and [Jeremy] took a course on embedded systems. They managed to turn out a very accurate copy of the classic Space Invaders in their class. Not wanting good code to go to waste, they decided to develop two player Space Invaders, and we wouldn’t mind testing it out. The guys built [...]

What happens when an unemployed sailor has a ton of time on his hands? Well, evidently they become an extremely skilled prop builder. Then again our only reference point is [Throssoli]‘s excellent Dead Space suit build. [Throssoli] started this ambitious project by setting a months deadline for the helmet. Although he did not meet the [...]

Launching high-altitude balloons to take pictures of the Earth from space is great fun. Heck, even credit card commercials are now suggesting you cash in your rewards points to organize a space balloon adventure for you and your friends. Capturing snapshots of the Earth from space is such a good time that Workshop 88, a [...]

[Igor] helped his friend’s family out by retrofitting an old Philco television with a newer flat panel (translated). The original conked out over thirty years ago, but the look of it still held quite a bit of nostalgia for his girlfriend’s Grandmother. She showed it to him on a recent visit and asked if it could [...]

We recently had the pleasure of visiting the LVL1 hackerspace in Louisville, Kentucky. Any hackers in the Louisville area who haven’t visited yet are doing themselves a big disservice. The space recently had its one year anniversary in July, but it’s hard to tell. The space features many of the things you’d only expect in older spaces [...]

Space Invaders came out in 1978, six years after Pong. That means this Space Invaders clock uses newer technology, right? Nope, it’s the same hardware as the Adafruit Pong Clock with some updated firmware. Still, as you can see after the break, the effect is pretty nice. Pong was cool, but having a clock that [...]

Reader [Jacob] tipped us off about a project the aims to make the final frontier open source. The mission of the Copenhagen Suborbitals is to launch a man into space. What they’re not interested in is turning a profit, carrying hazmat or weapons, or keeping what they learn to themselves.
Surprisingly enough, isn’t this the next [...]

Chaos Communication Congress 26th (26C3) 2009 Abstract: I'm going to talk about the benefits of applying critical thinking stories that we hear in the popular media, and the example I'll be focusing on is the story of the Lost Cosmonauts: Soviet Cosmonauts supposed to have died in space, but who were erased from history. We have audio recordings, allegedly from these dying Cosmonauts, and we'll apply critical thinking to learn what the real source was. An introductory talk describing phenomena and presenting of understanding of why they are fallacious and why it's so important that they be debunked. The speaker thinks he can bring some better color to the conference – and some fun – focusing on applied critical thinking. This is a popular talk that the speaker has given at the Center for Inquiry and at the Amazing Meeting in Las Vegas.

network IP hijacking Event:
Chaos Communication Congress 26th (26C3) 2009 Abstract: In times of the omnipresent scare of IPv4 address shortage and price tags on Internet resources that are raised on a yearly basis some people look for creative means of securing themselves parts of "pre-owned" IP space. This space comes from the various early birds on the net. From major corporations to the US Military: Nobody is safe of getting his unused IP assets nicked. This talk will explain the ways IP assignments are made and how clever and not so clever, greedy and not so greedy IP thieves can get into the possession of valuable IP assets.
