Let's Hack
Down and Dirty Problem Solving
Proposal, Updated December 18, 2012Publicly, "Hacking" stereotypically represents an evil deed committed by young "script kiddies" trying to harm other people's computers, fraudulently seeking passwords in order to steal money. While these weak descriptions are continually perpetuated, this course will teach the art of hacking: down and dirty problem solving by providing a general historical overview of hacking and its intersection with art. It more importantly will focus on how to use hacking in one's own art practice to quickly solve problems; the ethical and conceptual issues surrounding related topics will also be explored. Please Note: this course will not only present software-based hacking but other forms such as social and hardware hacking. Related projects by Critical Art Ensemble, Bureau of Inverse Technology and Electronic Civil Disobediance will be presented and built upon.
Solo Show
First Major Solo Show
Proposal, Updated December 18, 2012Possibly the hardest challenge for me is to create a solo show featuring works where the overall production is signed by myself, and majorly produced by myself.
- World Wide Web Workshop
Proposal, Updated December 18, 2012This workshop's primary goal is to empower each participant to construct basic standards compliant web-based media directed towards predefined goals. The course starts at the very beginning with the most fundamental concepts of the World Wide Web which are built upon throughout the workshop. These concepts are explored through direct hands-on construction of simple web pages with HTML markup for content and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for visual style, both written in a standard text editor. Next, participants learn how to wield Javascript, a lightweight public standard scripting language, to activate web content, check forms, and build basic on-line applications. Finally, simple database concepts and implementations are explored as a means to store, retrieve, and edit large quantities of data using the PHP programming language, file-based databases, and MySQL binary databases.

Qi Hardware Releases Free Wireless Hardware
From the Fabricatorz announcement:
Today we’re proud to say that we have really big news coming out today from our Qi Hardware project! Two completely patent-free, copyleft hardware wireless devices have been made and are available for sale now!
Please meet the Ben WPAN. Its offspring are the ATBEN, a wireless device that fits into the Ben Nanonote’s microSD slot, and the ATUSB, an implementation that fits in a standard computer’s USB slot. These devices can now all communicate wirelessly now!
From the Ben WPAN page:
Ben WPAN is a project to create an innovative patent-free wireless personal area network (WPAN) that is copyleft hardware. The primary protocol is 6LoWPAN, pronounced “SLoWPAN”. The project lead is Werner Almesberger and it involves using the UBB, new testing software, and the Ben Nanonote to produce a next generation wireless personal area network.
Expect great things! Qi Hardware !
