It looks like it’s time to update our event list. Here are some hacking related events happening through the rest of the year.
- ToorCon September 26-28 San Diego, CA – In its tenth year, ToorCon has always been one of our favorites. The conference is fairly small, but features great content like last year’s fuzzing talk.
- Arse Elektronika (NSFW) September 25-28 San Francisco, CA – Happening the same time as ToorCon, this conference covers the sexual side of human and machine interaction. The device list has gems like The Seismic Dildo, which only turns on if there is seismic activity in the world.
- Maker Faire October 18-19 Austin, TX – It’s Maker Faire! In Texas!
- Roboexotica December 4-7 Vienna, Austria – The premier festival for cocktail robotics is also back for the tenth time. They’re always looking for more exhibitors. Check out our Hackit for ideas.
- 25C3 December 27-30 Berlin, Germany I think we pretty much covered all the bases on this incredible conference yesterday.
Did we miss anything?
It might not be as big as the other cons, but Phreaknic 12 is scheduled to take place October 24-25 in Nashville, TN.
