A exploration into current techniques malicious hackers use to evade anti-virus systems, presented in a way that less technical attendees can still enjoy whilst containing enough detail to keep more experienced viewers interested. about this event: https://c3voc.de

Inclusive and collaborative space projects for the techy, creative and curious and where to get started. about this event: https://c3voc.de

This summer I went on holiday on a container ship, so this talk will be a slideshow of my holiday photos. I'll also go on tangents about supply chains, Shenzhen, shipping containers, rare earth metal mines, GPS, and that kind of thing. about this event: https://c3voc.de

This presentation will discuss the extreme vulnerability that most people have to being stalked online and then focusing on a few examples of research going on in universities on network inference. The purpose of this talk is to shed light on the topic of social network inference and show yet another application of machine learning. about this event: https://c3voc.de

We have written USBProxy, an open source software tool targeted at cheap hardware, such as the BeagleBone Black, which allows us to build, explore and break USB devices with simple software. I will show how we can use USBProxy to monitor and debug USB connections and how we can build a USB device in software using £35 of hardware. about this event: https://c3voc.de

I'll be talking about the "Our Data, Ourselves" project at King's College London, which been done in conjunction with some teenage coders via Young Rewired State. They are already contributing to the app, and have started to examine the data they have generated. We will report on their attitudes to privacy, how the app works, and some preliminary results. about this event: https://c3voc.de

In this talk I will discuss how to dramatically improve the speed and quality of your robotics and computer vision projects using MATLAB and Simulink to program your Arduino, Raspberry Pi and LEGO Mindstorms. Firstly, I will introduce MATLAB and Simulink, the industry standard tools used by engineers worldwide to program everything from cars engines to smartphone cameras to spacecraft navigation s...

A followup talk to one given at OHM in 2013 about how to run your own infrastructure rather than relying on Google or other large companies. about this event: https://c3voc.de

I'll provide a short update on progress made in the campaign to make NHS IT less bad. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A deep dive into cgroups, unshare and other technologies in the Linux kernel used to create isolated containers (as used by Docker/lxc). about this event: https://c3voc.de

A talk about dog behaviour and communication. This is especially targeted at anyone afraid of dogs but is relevant to anyone looking to understand the basics of canine communication and how it affects their interactions with humans and other creatures. about this event: https://c3voc.de

In this talk I will present a few quick tips on making your web applications more resistant to common attack vectors, without putting a lot of effort in. In some cases, simply adding a line to a configuration file can completely prevent entire classes of attack from being viable. We'll take a look at hardening against XSS, SQL injection, clickjacking, password cracking, and a few other bits if the...

The Hexayurt Project is an open source housing project with > 1000 units deployed each year. However, there's more to the story - a transformation vision about how engineering "outside of the market" can change the world in ways that markets cannot manage. Over three billion people live substantially outside of the market: where could they go with with this technology? about this event: https://c3...

Computers have become ubiquitous and essential, but they remain massively error-prone and insecure - as if we were back in the early days of the industrial revolution, with steam engines exploding left, right, and centre. Why is this, and can we do better? about this event: https://c3voc.de

I'm new to the Raspberry Pi. This is the story of how I embarked on a project to catch fly tippers on our local farms, but got distracted trying to frighten kids at Halloween, and discovered I'm feeding the local feline population. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A performance and talk about the chiptune music I create on my Game Boy, along with specially written visuals to go along with the set. about this event: https://c3voc.de

I write electronic music & build controllers with a nautical theme! Between playing tracks I'll answer questions about how our kit is set up and how it works. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A series of short, funny, geeky talks by people who know their stuff, hosted by Steve Cross. This show will not be suitable for children! about this event: https://c3voc.de

Over the past 5 years since the final year of my undergraduate degree in 2009 I have been building a split-flap display (departure board) like you'd have seen at train stations and airports several years ago. This talk is about how I learnt almost everything I know through curiosity, trying, and making and iterating. about this event: https://c3voc.de

Why would anybody feel the need to create a webservice for writing graffiti on a Github commit history graph, when there are real problems that need solving? Come and find out in this talk, which also features the Sinclair Spectrum font and a brief exploration of the Github API. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A talk covering the basics of health, what you should be doing, and monitoring yourself at home. about this event: https://c3voc.de

The world's first computer, Colossus, was commissioned in 1943 just a few minutes away from the EMF camp. It gave Bletchley Park unprecedented access to the Hitler's most private communications. How did it work? Why was it built? Who designed it? All this and several shameless plugs for The National Museum of Computing. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A gently performative, slightly poetic talk on the ways games break; in personal and political, difficult and perfect ways. about this event: https://c3voc.de

A year ago we bought an old caravan and converted it into a 3 player starship disaster simulator called the "LHS Bikeshed". This is the story of how we've done it and not torn out all of our hair in the process. about this event: https://c3voc.de
