I want to Volunteer at 29c3
I am an electronic engineer and happy to help volunteer with any
Audio Visual, Tech Support, Networking, Hacking, Troubleshooting and
Emergency Soldering etc
Can you help me get to 29c3?
- I am looking for some floorspace to crash on during the conference
- Car share (like http://www.mitfahrgelegenheit.de/) going with a hacker from the London/UK or something) to come to the conference / Hamburg.
- I would love to meet over 9000 local hackerspace guys, geeks,
CCC guys not only during the conference but also before and after the
conference.
- Hang with some cool guys for Xmas, I can provide thermodynamic advise/consultancy with the Xmas meal preparation.
- Essentially I want to join the Hamburg tech community and learn
some German before and after the event and meet lots of awesome people
and friendly hackers and contribute lots of hard work and enthusiasm in
setting up and packing away 29C3 in order to attend the conference at
reduced cost.
Movements
I have been very active in the following movements: hurricanehackers,
occupy, cryptoparty, hackerspace/maker, hacker, and some other
'operations'. It has been a great fucking year man!
Cryptoparty
I am one of the organizers of CryptopartyLondon (I am looking forward
to hacking the conference getting lots of little stammtischs running). I
am also looking forward to collaborating with the guys (

User:K3t,

User:Rysiek,
User:TheAlex, and
User:Zombb)
I have been working with Asher Wolf to grow and evolve the movement
(particularly in Europe) over the past couple of months. I met some
great guys from Hackeriet and the Brussels hackerspace this year.
Occupy
I was at Occupy for 9 months and I founded the tech team there to
help empower the people of the movement with technology. At Occupy I
learnt to try and live more sustainably and I have been living with less
and less money in order to increase my freedom and maximize the time I
can give to movements and spend at the hackspace.
Hurricane Hackers
I joined this collective to help with the recovery operation in #NYC after hurricane Sandy.
Software
Sukey
I am the co-founder and inventor of
Sukey an app designed to keep demonstrators safe, mobile and informed.
About Me
- So now I am, essentially a poor/starving/nomadic hacker coming
from London Hackspace where I have been a member for like 2 years.
