(NoiseBridge, San Francisco)

Thursday January 7, 2010.
14.30-16.00, Helsingforsgade 14, Dep. Information and Media Studies, 
Aarhus University.

Jacob Appelbaum lives in San Francisco and is an independent computer 
security hacker currently employed by the Tor Project.. He is the 
executive director and a founder of the hackerspace Noisebridge in San 
Francisco (www.noisebridge.net).

NoiseBridge is a space for sharing, creation, collaboration, research, 
development, mentoring, and learning. Noisebridge is also more than a 
physical space, it’s a community with roots extending around the world. 
The hackerspace provides infrastructure and collaboration opportunities 
for people interested in programming, hardware hacking, physics, 
chemistry, mathematics, photography, security, robotics, all kinds of 
art, and, of course, technology. Through talks, workshops, and projects, 
it encourages knowledge exchange, learning, and mentoring. As a space 
for artistic collaboration and experimentation, is open to all types of 
art – with a special emphasis on the crossover of art and technology. 
 From hardware labs to electronics, cooking, photography, and sound 
labs, anything that’s creative is welcome.

The tor project is free software and an open network that helps you 
defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal 
freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, 
and state security known as traffic analysis.

The meeting with Jacob Appelbaum is organized by the Digital Aesthetics 
Research Centre. Presented by Tatiana Bazzichelli.

Thursday January 7, 2010.
