Last weekend I attended The Next Hope (Hackers on Planet Earth) conference, held at the Hotel Pennsylvania in NYC. It is held every 2 years and this is the 4th time I attended since 1998.
This is the badge-
this is the schematic for the badge designed by Travis Goodspeed-
“These badges are active RFID tags which beacon the position of each attendee a few times a second, so that the god damned devil army of lies–by which I mean the Next HOPE badge committee–can track each attendee around the Hotel Pennsylvania.”
There were alot of other cool things to check out such as this USB Typewriter setup and a working EASY button
Here are some topics to some of the talks I attended-
A keynote was scheduled to be given by Julian Assange of Wikileaks , he did not show for obvious reasons, but his partner Jacob Appelbaum and developer of TOR gave a great talk,cover past, present and future developments of the project and showed the much talked about a videotape showing a U.S. Army Apache helicopter attack in Baghdad that killed a dozen people, including two Reuters news staff. for more information check out CollateralMurder.com
I got to ride a Segway (video on that later) and got put on to Etherape!-is a packet sniffer/network traffic monitoring tool, developed for Unix (thank you AngelXIII!)
I met threat analyst and journalist, known as a former grey hat hacker, Adrian Lamo (we now follow each other on foursquare)
He also informed the authorities of the identity of a US Army Intelligence Specialist who is alleged to be the source of the July 12, 2007 Baghdad airstrike video leak to Wikileaks.
Which shows guts and balls and I am in his corner no matter what his reputation may now be in the hacker community.
I also enjoyed 2 greats talk and got a pic with Johannes Grenzfurthner
(No-I do not work for @cafebustelo)
He is the founder of monochrom, an internationally acting art and theory group.
I shot an interview with a teacher from The Hacktory, a Philidelphia-based group that promotes the use of technolog in the arts.
(look for that video to be posted soon)
Overall, it was a good time of learning and unlearning.

On Saturday I attended Creators Project at MILK Studios in NYC, it’s is a joint venture between Vice and Intel.

The purpose is to launch a new network dedicated to the celebration of creativity and culture across media all around the world.
xx: A Sculpture of the Album -a unique audio-visual collaboration with video director Saam Farahmand, creates “a 3D physical interpretation” of the band’s debut album, xx,
The sculpture utilises film, light and sound via three specially created audio-visual units (each unit representing one member of the band with a mix of exclusively filmed footage and mixed sound), and every visitor enjoys a totally unique experience of xx.

Last week I stopped by the Comixology HQ and met creators Steve Ellis and David Gallaher, Jake and Taylor from comiXology’s to celebrate the release of the Red 5 Comics’ graphic novel!
Refreshments were served, including Dan Holiday’s favorite drink!
(Vodka, Cran and Ginger Ale)
Overall a pretty good time, I even met comic book legend Jim Lee!
I downloaded the digital version of the comic on my Iphone and enjoyed the story and artwork-it is loosely based on 1947 radio show of the same name.
