Paulaner Paula Pongratz (Postapokalyptischer Schmuck)
Workshop/Ausstellung/Exhibition
Beim Postapokalyptischen Schmuck-Workshop können Teilnehmende der OpenTechSummit aus Fundstücken vom Veranstaltungsgelände, aus Resten anderer dort stattfindender Workshops oder aus einem bereitgestellten Fundus Schmuck herstellen und sich ganz persönliche Unikate mit nach Hause nehmen. Passend zum Thema Makerbewegung werden hier u.a. 3D-Druck-Reste und -Fehldrucke, Lasercutter-Abschnitte sowie Elektroschrott zur Schmuckproduktion zur Verfügung stehen. Es sollen Ästhetikbewusstsein und bewussterer Umgang mit Ressourcen vermittelt werden, wobei gleichzeitig die Abfallmenge der Veranstaltung geringfügig dezimiert wird. We make jewellery from found objects from the Open Tech Summit or from leftovers of other workshops. Feel free to bring own material or choose from provided stuff, there will be lots of 3d-printer-deposit, electronic scrap, lasercutter-leavings!
About Paulaner Paula Pongratz:
Paula Pongratz vereine "wichtige Eigenschaften der Zukunft: Sie ist eigensinnig, kreativ und asozial." Schrieb so (mehr oder weniger) eine Münchner Tageszeitung. Die studierte Grafikerin macht zur Zeit lieber Schmuck und Videokunst. Dabei lässt sie stark ihre Umgebung in ihre Arbeiten einfließen. So entstanden zB die Schmuckserien 'Postapokalyptischer Schmuck', in der sie 'Fundstücke der menschlichen Zivilisation' zu Schmuck verarbeitete oder 'Schmuck aus Straßenkehrmaschinenborsten', welche sie bei ihren Streifzügen durch die Stadt findet. Als VJ versucht sie, aktuelles Weltgeschehen zu thematisieren – nicht selten kritisch humorvoll kommentierend. Auch mit ihren Videoinstallationen geht sie direkt auf den Raum ein, illustrierend, beschreibend. Seit 2011 gibt sie Workshops, bei denen Teilnehmende aus selbstgefundenem oderzur Verfügung gestelltem Material Schmuck herstellen können. Paula Pongratz lebt in München und versucht, weniger zu arbeiten.

TinyBoy Project is an education project started at 2011. The talk is about the follow up of the project, what we did and the progress. To show the new version of the TinyBoy, TinyBoy2. And to discuss about how to integrate into STEAM.
About Alvin Lui:
TinyBoy is an open design 3D printer. It fits well on a regular computer desk. TinyBoy is designed as an entry-level machine for students and newbies to learn 3D modelling technology and, ultimately, to encourage creative thinking. Tinyboy 3D printer is ultra-portable by being small. A one-to-one student to printer ratio can be achieved in computer classrooms to maximize the exposure of student to 3D printing technology. Students can also carry the printer around beyond classrooms to engage in their learning activities. On the other hand, it is very usable for education purpose for printing figures, toys and other creations that students like. Tinyboy is easy to build. Any student can assemble the TinyBoy by just a screw driver. We wish students can make their own machine and become pioneers to help other people. So that the use of 3D printer can be spread to their families and communities. The process of making can transform education by inviting students to go beyond being consumers of education. They can be a maker of anything, moving from being directed to self-directed through the process.

Hardware Hacks
Hey, aus einem alten Bahndisplay baute ich eine Tweet-Anzeige. Dazu reverse-engineerte ich die LED-Matrix in der Display-Einheit, um es mit einem eigenem WLAN Modul (WeMos) anzusteuern. Tweets mit einem festlegbaren Hashtag werden automatisch auf dem Display angezeigt. Neben der Twitter-Funktionalität arbeite ich gerade daran, Tetris und Snake zu implementieren, die man vom Handy aus über WLAN steuern kann. Gerne würde ich das Projekt bei Euch zeigen und ggf. bei einem Lightning Talk vorstellen. Es wäre nett, in der Nähe von "loklak" platziert zu werden, weil ich für den Zugriff auf Tweets, die API von loklak verwende.
About Fabian Lüpke:

In the recent years, brain-computer interfaces are becoming increasingly popular for the use at home. However, current consumer devices are still subject to quality issues, and while most of the time the software is hackable, the hardware is only in a very few cases. In this talk, a brief introduction into brain-computer interfaces is given, as well as a presentation of a novel neuroheadset, that is low-cost, provides high quality and is completely open-source.

Nora Al-Badri (Nefertiti Hack), Jan Nikolai Nelles (Nefertiti Hack)
Workshop und Infotisch / Showcase Table
“The Other Nefertiti” is an artistic intervention by Jan Nikolai Nelles and Nora Al- Badri which went viral. “With the data leak as a part of this counter narrative within our investigative practice we want to activate the artefact, to inspire a critical re-assessment of today’s conditions and to overcome the colonial notion of possession in Germany's museums”. With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .
About Nora Al-Badri:
Nora Al-Badri is a multi-disciplinary artist with a German-Iraqi background working in different mediums such as sculpture and installation, photography and film. Her pieces deal with issues arising through hegemonic and neocolonial power structures and representations between the so called global South and North as well as with the various faces of war. Al-Badri lives and works in Berlin. She studied political sciences at Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt/Main and visual communications at Offenbach University of Art and Design. Her works got granted by several institutions like Goethe-Institut, Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen (IfA), German Federal Foreign Office and European Cultural Foundation (ECF). Since 2009 she also collaborates with Jan Nikolai Nelles as a collective.
About Jan Nikolai Nelles:

Paper Prototyping is an easy-to-use method for creating, developing and testing concepts for applications and websites. Everybody can work together – no programming skills are needed. If we want to try something new, we don't need to delete code or discuss if the library supports it: just draw and cut out the new feature! As well we can easily do a usability test with our prototypes to get further input and check if the idea is going into the right direction.

Jos Poortvliet (ownCloud)
Workshop, 2h
Keeping your data to yourself has become harder and harder. Luckily, there is a solution: ownCloud. At the workshops we will learn how to put your data on a server of your choosing while making it available to your devices wherever you are. File sync and share with others, music, picture and video galleries, mail, calendar and contacts apps and lots of more functionality in a modular, open source and easy to use PHP server app. ownCloud offers a web interface to all its functionality as well as access through webdav, CALDAV and CARDDAV, Ampache and through the mobile and desktop clients available for Win/Mac/Linux, Android/iOS/Blackberry and more platforms. You want it? You can have it. If you don't have a server yet, consider bringing a Raspberry Pi 2, a Banana Pi or a cubietruck with the needed tools (SD card/power/etc). Or bring a laptop, old desktop or your SSH credentials to your VPS or home server and come set up your ownCloud at the OpenTechSummit! In this workshop you'll be walked through the process and get hands-on help in installing and getting ownCloud up and running on your system. A quick overview of how it will (most likely) work: First a quick 'what is ownCloud' introduction. Then everybody (probably in pairs) gets a USB stick, SD card, development board and two network cables. The USB stick has a image to be put on the SD card. Then the Pi can be booted from it, connected to the network. I monitor the network and based on the MAC of the Pi I tell you your IP. From the laptop, you SSH into the Pi and install a web server and ownCloud. From your browser you then go and configure ownCloud.

Germany has been experiencing a huge wave of civic engagement for refugees and newcomers during the last year. This is great and that is why some people at the refugee hackathon in Berlin wanted to provide an overview of these projects as complete as possible by creating metacollect. metacollect is an open data service that collects and provides current information on civil society projects and initiatives. Our long-term goal is to strengthen all players through the creation of a single interface. In the talk, we will give you a short overview about how to map the landscape of projects that aim to support refugees and newcomers and what pitfalls we encountered. Also, we would like to share some of our learnings on how to set up an open data project from scratch.

Applications, algorithms and devices have an intended use – which often is ignored: People use Excel as a database, images to send text, Dropbox to share code… Why don't they use the »right« tools? Instead of pointing out that the users are wrong we want to show why these »misuses« of systems make sense from the users perspective and why the people who use workarounds instead of the »right« tools are hackers – without knowing it.

Nora Al-Badri (Nefertiti Hack), Jan Nikolai Nelles (Nefertiti Hack)
Lightning Talk
“The Other Nefertiti” is an artistic intervention by Jan Nikolai Nelles and Nora Al- Badri which went viral. “With the data leak as a part of this counter narrative within our investigative practice we want to activate the artefact, to inspire a critical re-assessment of today’s conditions and to overcome the colonial notion of possession in Germany's museums”. With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .
About Nora Al-Badri:
Nora Al-Badri is a multi-disciplinary artist with a German-Iraqi background working in different mediums such as sculpture and installation, photography and film. Her pieces deal with issues arising through hegemonic and neocolonial power structures and representations between the so called global South and North as well as with the various faces of war. Al-Badri lives and works in Berlin. She studied political sciences at Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt/Main and visual communications at Offenbach University of Art and Design. Her works got granted by several institutions like Goethe-Institut, Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen (IfA), German Federal Foreign Office and European Cultural Foundation (ECF). Since 2009 she also collaborates with Jan Nikolai Nelles as a collective.
About Jan Nikolai Nelles:

Rufus Pollock (Founder Open Knowledge)
Vortrag/Talk
If you have ever been online, watched a movie or taken a medicine you have been a user of information. Today information in the form of software, databases and innovations is becoming more important than ever before. Information is becoming main thing we make, trade and use. This is a new world being built on "bits". Its virtual nature makes it different from the physical world of bread and land and cars which can only have one user at a time. By contrast, information can be used by many at the same time. The implications of this are huge. It makes a world of open information both possible and desirable -- that is a world in which all public information can be openly and freely used, shared and built on. This is a world where no-one is denied access to life-saving medicines because of cost, where everyone has access to our cultural heritage, where artists, innovators and creators are paid more and more fairly. But getting there will not be easy. Dystopia is the default: if we do nothing we will get a world of exclusion and control where information is made to play by the same rules as our old physical one using "intellectual property" monopoly rights like copyright and patents. In this talk we will explore the road ahead and explain why we can and must create an open future. The talk is for anyone interested in the coming information age and its implications for the politics, law and economics of this next century.
About Rufus Pollock:
Leading academic of the European open data movement. Rufus Pollock (born 1980) is an economist and founder of Open Knowledge. He is a Shuttleworth Foundation alumnus, an Associate of the Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Law at the University of Cambridge and President of Open Knowledge which he co-founded (as the Open Knowledge Foundation) in 2004 and served as a board director until 2013. On 24 May 2004 Pollock founded in Cambridge, UK the Open Knowledge Foundation as a global non-profit network that promotes and shares information at no charge, including both content and data. In 2007 and 2009 Pollock published two controversial papers regarding the optimal copyright term, where he proposed based on an economical model with empirically-estimable parameters an optimal duration of only 15 years, significantly shorter than any currently existing copyright term. He has held the Mead Research Fellowship in economics at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. In 2009, he was credited by web inventor Tim Berners-Lee for starting the Raw Data Now meme. In 2010 he was appointed as one of the four founding members of the UK Government's Public Sector Transparency Board.

Number theory provides us many tools to create sometimes really surprising technologies for social communication. We have learned that math might be our last defence line against a real existing all-encompassing surveillance. One central challenge in this conflict is to combine authentication and anonymity. Since a lot of these technologies have not been brought to the implemented world yet, we want to present a proposal to integrate blind signature schemes over elliptic curves into Open PGP.

Einige Missverständnisse zu Freier Software halten sich schon seit Jahren. Zum Beispiel: 1) Freie Software ist kostenlos. 2) Mit Freier Software kann man kein Geld verdienen. 3) Wer Freie Software ändert, muss die Änderungen wieder allen verfügbar machen. 4) Freie Software ist (un)sicherer als proprietäre Software. 5) Freie Software ist das überlegene Entwicklungsmodell. 6) Freie Software bringt mir nichts, wenn ich nicht programmieren kann, … Diese Missverständnisse sind leider nach wie vor weit verbreitet und erschweren es, möglichst schnell das Potential Freier Software zu nutzen. Der Vortrag ist richtig für Dich, wenn Du Dich wunderst warum eine der Aussagen falsch sein soll oder Du Anregungen suchst, wie und was Du auf solche oder ähnliche Aussagen in Zukunft in unter zwei Minuten erwidern kannst.
About Matthias Kirschner:
Matthias Kirschner ist Präsident der FSFE. 1999 begann er GNU/Linux zu nutzen und realisierte, dass Software tief in allen Bereichen unseres Lebens verwurzelt ist. Er ist davon überzeugt, dass diese Technik unsere Gesellschaft nicht einschränken, sondern sie befähigen muss. Seit 2004, während seines Studiums der Politik- und Verwaltungswissenschaft, engagiert er sich bei der FSFE. Er unterstützt Organisationen, Unternehmen und die Öffentliche Verwaltung dabei, von Freier Software zu profitieren und er erklärt, wie die grundlegenden Rechte von Freier Software -- das Recht sie zu verwenden, zu verstehen, zu verbreiten und zu verbessern -- die Meinungsfreiheit, Pressefreiheit oder Privatsphäre fördern. Matthias Kirschner is President of FSFE. In 1999 he started using GNU/Linux and realised that software is deeply involved in all aspects of our lives. Matthias is convinced that this technology has to empower society not restrict it. While studying Political and Administrative Science he joined FSFE in 2004. He helps other organisations, companies and governments to understand how they can benefit from Free Software -- which gives everybody the rights to use, understand, adapt and share software -- and how those rights help to support freedom of speech, freedom of press or privacy.

Vortrag/Talk
DevOps ist in den letzten Jahren sehr erfolgreich geworden. Häufig wurden in Unternehmen jedoch nur einige neue Werkzeuge eingeführt. Die ursprüngliche Idee war jedoch, dass sich Arbeitskultur,-prozesse und -werkzeuge der Software-Entwicklung umfassend ändern sollten. Wir werden eine vollständige Toolchain für den gesamten Lebenszyklus von Software betrachten, vom agilen Software-Prozess über Continuous Integration bis hin zu Continuous Deployment. Darüberhinaus wird erst die Bereitstellung der gesamten Infrastruktur eine grundlegende Veränderung der Arbeitskultur und -prozesse bewirken können: Die Software-Entwickler sollten auf dieselbe Infrastruktur zum Entwickeln und Testen zurückgreifen können, die auch in der Produktion verwendet wird; umgekehrt werden sie nicht mehr nur während der Entwicklungsphase auf »ihre« Software verantwortlich sein sondern über den gesamten Lebenszyklus hinweg. Nur durch diese Veränderungen werden die Gräben zwischen Development und Operations tatsächlich überwunden werden können.

Rüdiger Trojok (Bioflux)
Vortrag/Talk
Bioflux democratises Life Science with the automated Personal Laboratory. Making research collaborative, open and affordable for everyone. The Personal Lab shrinks a biology lab into a portable, affordable and automated device for point of care diagnostics and personalised drug production. High labor costs restrict rapid prototyping in life sciences inhibiting development of point-of-care diagnostics and personalized drugs for plants, animals and humans. Existing automation robots used in the pharmaceutical industry are costly and only economic for high revenue drug production controlled by monopolistic multinationals. This leaves many urgent, but scientifically solvable, environmental and health problems untouched. We are developing the Personal Lab as a new platform for scientific literate citizens to read and write biological code. The Personal Lab is a portable and affordable device enabling automated and programmable execution of biological protocols, increasing efficiency up to 100000X. This will allow a community of users to collaboratively program and test new protocols and create bioapplications to e.g. solve the antibiotic crisis. We have established a network of hardware and software engineers and biologists that developed a prototype of a Personal Lab and are embedded in the global DIYbio scene and thereby quickly spead our technology . We will provide you with Biochips containing all needed reagents and a software that offers unlimited options to code your own bioapplications and share them with the community. Join us in this open source hardware project and start coding biology!
About Rüdiger Trojok:

Vortrag/Talk
GLAMorous Importer wanted: More and more art & culture heritage keeping institutions as galleries, libraries archives or museums, aka GLAM, make large quantities of their collections accessible to further reuse. Often enough the content would be easier to reuse for apps and augmented reality if transferred to Wikimedia Commons. The talk intends to spur initiatives to transfer open data of the GLAMorous kind to Wikimedia Commons. It shows the opportunities, the hurdles and provides hints where to start. It is not a technical instruction how to do it, but a call for action to start to do it.
About Barbara Fischer:
The art manager Barbara Fischer is operating as curator for cultural partnerships at Wikimedia Deutschland. Her job is to enhance GLAM institutions to join the Open Culture movement as in Wikimedia projects.

Frederik Kramer (initOS GmbH / Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg)
Vortrag/Talk
Die Erfindung und Verbreitung des Internet hat die Welt enger zusammenrücken lassen. Längst ist aus einem einst lokalen, regionalen oder bestenfalls nationalen Wettbewerb ein globaler Wettbewerb geworden. Stetig fallende Kosten der Informationsverarbeitung durch intensive Vernetzung und Erweiterung der Übertragungsbandbreiten sorgt dafür, dass die gespeicherte Informationsmenge rasant wächst. Sie wächst dabei erheblich schneller als die Weltbevölkerung bzw. die Anzahl verfügbarer Fachkräfte, die sich mit den technischen Lösungen der Informationsverarbeitung befassen. Die Informationstechnologiebranche ist diejenige Branche, die sich stellvertretend für alle anderen Branchen mit den technologischen Anforderungen der Informations- und Wissensverarbeitung auseinandersetzt. Daneben erzeugt und verarbeitet sie selbst im Rahmen ihrer Leistungserbringung große Mengen komplexen Wissens. Im Maschinenraum der Informationstechnologiebranche planen, entwickeln, betreiben und warten Softwareentwickler, Tester, Administratoren und Projektmanager, Software, deren Erstellung auf Grund fachlicher Anforderungen bzw. eines entsprechenden Marktpotentials notwendig oder sinnvoll erscheint. Was inbesondere in den 1990er Jahren noch als verrückt galt, nämlich Wissen in Form von Quellcode uns selbst ganze, komplexe Anwendungssysteme zu explizieren und für jedermann zugänglich und nutzbar zu teilen (Open Source bzw. Free Software), hat zusammen mit dem Erfolg prominenter Projekte (z.B. Linux, LibreOffice, Firefox) und dem Ausbau weltweiter Kommunikationsnetze eine globale Erfolgsgeschichte geschrieben. Bis vor wenigen Jahren hielten die meisten Fachleute es für undenkbar, dass auch grundlegenste betriebliche Anwendungen, sogenannte Enterprise Resource Planning Systeme in diesem Modus entwickelt und betrieben werden können. U.a. das Open Source ERP-System Odoo tritt seit geraumer Zeit den Gegenbeweis an. Um den belgischen Hersteller haben sich in den vergangenen Jahren mehrere hundert Integrationspartner weltweit und eine Gruppe von über 2 Mio. aktive Nutzer in einer Community formiert. Der Vortrag fast die seit 2008 andauernde Entwicklung von Odoo (zuvor als OpenERP bekannt) aus Sicht eines Integrationspartners zusammen und stellt dabei die Rolle des Wissensaustausches, ökonomischer Interessen des Herstellers und der Integrationspartner sowie Erfolgs- und Risikofaktoren eines weltweit erfolgreichen Open Source Projektes am Beispiel dar. Insbesondere wird dabei auch auf den erkennbaren Trend der Professionalisierung erfolgreicher Open Source Projekte und Dual Licensing eingegangen.
About Frederik Kramer:
Frederik Kramer studierte Wirtschaftsinformatik am Institut für Technische und Betriebliche Informationssysteme der Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg. Aktuell arbeitet er als assoziierter Wissenschaftler am Magdeburg Research and Competence Cluster (MRCC) an seiner Promotion zur strategischen Gestaltung von Systemlandschaften in KMU. Sein Forschungsinteresse liegt dabei insbesondere bei der strategischen Nutzung von Open Source Software zur Gewinnung nachhaltiger Wettbewerbsvorteile. Als Gründer und Geschäftsführer der initOS GmbH beschäftigt er sich zusammen mit seinen Kollegen seit vielen Jahren mit der strategischen Planung, Einführung, Wartung und Nutzung auf Open Source Software basierender komplexer betrieblicher Anwendungssysteme.

Alvin Lui (Makeomnia Ltd / HKCOTA)
Vortrag/Talk
TinyBoy Project is an education project started at 2011. The talk is about the follow up of the project, what we did and the progress. To show the new version of the TinyBoy, TinyBoy2. And to discuss about how to integrate into STEAM.
About Alvin Lui:
TinyBoy is an open design 3D printer. It fits well on a regular computer desk. TinyBoy is designed as an entry-level machine for students and newbies to learn 3D modelling technology and, ultimately, to encourage creative thinking. Tinyboy 3D printer is ultra-portable by being small. A one-to-one student to printer ratio can be achieved in computer classrooms to maximize the exposure of student to 3D printing technology. Students can also carry the printer around beyond classrooms to engage in their learning activities. On the other hand, it is very usable for education purpose for printing figures, toys and other creations that students like. Tinyboy is easy to build. Any student can assemble the TinyBoy by just a screw driver. We wish students can make their own machine and become pioneers to help other people. So that the use of 3D printer can be spread to their families and communities. The process of making can transform education by inviting students to go beyond being consumers of education. They can be a maker of anything, moving from being directed to self-directed through the process.

Vortrag/Talk
Open Source Circular Design is so ugly! Is it? Or is it just a new paradigm for design we are going to explore? Funnier, sexier, more elegant ... that was yesterday (or is today). But in the future maybe it will be modular, hackable, reusable and open ... This talk will be a reading of a letter exchange that happened between a guy that is a critic of open design and loves shiny apple stuff and a guy that tries to explore open source circular design. The letter exchanges brings up the key arguments of both sides. | It mentions and works in the context of the Open Source Circular Economy Days

Felicitas Blanck (Community Managerin)
Vortrag/Talk
Sind die Kommentare noch zu retten? Wie lässt man Nutzer im Internet am besten zu Wort kommen? Und wie kommen wir dabei zu einer sachlicheren Debatte? Nutzerkommentare sind sprichwörtliches Reservoir für Hass und Beleidigungen. Ist das Schliessen von Kommentarbereichen wirklich der Weisheit letzter Schluss? Daneben gibt es viele Versuche, durch die Anpassung der Nutzeroberfläche zu einer sachlicheren Debatte zu kommen. Was gibt es für Ansätze? Sind sie erfolgreich? Und was macht das ideale Kommentarsystem aus?
About Felicitas Blanck:

We spend countless hours creating technically amazing projects built upon awesome, cutting edge code. We then promote our project through newsletters, events and social media and await certain success. But nothing happens. Why? Whoops, we forgot to tell anyone how to effectively use our project, all that time waisted. In this presentation I want to draw upon my experience in writing tutorials and technical documentation to help you write clear, concise and usable documentation for your own projects. We will cover topics such as: - Why write documentation? - Creating context and meaning - Writing clear copy - Creating meaningful examples and tutorials - Markdown, Restructured Text, Pandoc, LaTeX - Making documentation part of build processes - Testing Docs - Versioning of Docs and maintaining consistency

Vortrag/Talk
It does not make sense to mourn about clouds just being other peoples computers. With Kubernetes (k8s) and Docker you can easily create your own public cloud running on your cloud providers computers, or with a little more effort, your own *private* cloud running on or your *own* hardware. There has been evolved an entire ecosystem for software deployed in containers and for software components securing privacy in the k8s cloud. With CoreOS as an immutable operating system running immutable containers you could get a higher integrity level build in your application by design.

Jérémy Bonvoisin (Technische Universität Berlin)
Vortrag/Talk
Based on the analysis of more than 70 significant open source product development projects, this contribution intends to give an overview of the current state of this emerging practice. The following questions will be particularly addressed: - How projects use the public space offered by the internet and the existing sharing online platforms in order to stimulate attention and contributions from online communities? - What are the gaps between actual practices and best practices formulated by the open source hardware association? - What do these gaps reveal about the intention of open source product development projects? - What different types of open source product development projects can be characterized? This research is lead in the context of the French-German project "OPEN!-Methods and tools for community-based product development" involving among others the Technische Universität Berlin and the University of Grenoble. This project is aimed at understanding and formalizing the emerging practice of community-based product development and at developing methodological and IT tools in order to support these practices.
About Jérémy Bonvoisin:
Jérémy Bonvoisin performs research in sustainable product development at the department of Industrial Information Technology of the Technische Universität Berlin. He leads the French-German research project "OPEN!-Methods and tools for community-based product development" that is dedicated to open source hardware and started in March 2016 for a duration of three years. Along the precedent years of research, he covered research topics such as: remanufacturing, energy efficiency of electric and electronic products, environmental assessment of ICT-based services, energy efficiency of production systems and product modularization.

Der Vortrag beleuchtet die Modellierung rechtlicher Prozesse, die dabei stehenden ethischen und juristischen Anforderungen und vergleicht letztlich bekannte Lösungsansätze. Gestreift werden Fragen wie: Was sind Verträge - Texte oder Prozesse? Verträge übertragen Rechte. Alle Rechte, oder sind manche Rechte unveräußerlich? (Menschenrechte irgendwo?!) Entscheiden mit "smart contracts" Maschinen was Recht ist? Smart contracts in der Blockchain? Was wird aus Privatsphäre, ~autonomie, Bankgeheimnis etc.? Was ist Askemos? Das Konzept ist 350 Jahre alt und entstammt der Aufklärung. Keine Authorität "des Vertrauens" sage uns was Recht ist! Ein "modifiziertes git"; privat, ohne schneller, skalierbar, privat und Ressourcen schonend.

Maximilian Richt (Open Knowledge Foundation Deutschland)
Vortrag/Talk
Am Anfang stand eine Gerichtsentscheidung: Letzten Herbst entschied das Bundesverwaltungsgericht, dass der Bundestag ein Gutachten seines wissenschaftlichen Dienstes herausgeben muss, wenn eine IFG-Anfrage dazu gestellt wird. Aber anstatt von selbst sämtliche bisherigen Gutachten zu veröffentlichen, entschied sich der Bundestag, so wenig wie möglich herauszugeben - bis wir die Kampagne "FragDenBundestag" starteten. Mit der Hilfe von tausenden Usern wurden mehr als 2.000 IFG-Anfragen gestellt, um Gutachten des Wissenschaftlichen Dienstes öffentlich zu machen. Dies bewegte letztendlich den Bundestag dazu, Stück für Stück von selbst zu veröffentlichen. In diesem Talk stelle ich die Plattformen sehrgutachten.de und kleineAnfragen.de vor, die einen einfacheren Zugang zu staatlichen Dokumenten ermöglichen und gehe auf die Schwierigkeiten ein, die entstehen, wenn man versucht, die eigene Regierung etwas transparenter zu machen.

Ebene 2, Loft / Floor 2
carlo von lynX (youbroketheinternet.org)
Vortrag/Talk
It is time to write a new Constitution for the EU. We need a participation platform to do this. There are two kinds of participatory e-democracy. The one that an authority has set-up where you trust them that justice, fairness and democratic correctness will be provided, demagogy and inflammatory behavior be dealt with by trustworthy admins you never heard or saw. And the other one where the participants themselves are empowered to do this. Which approach do you find more appropriate for the task? Has this been done before? What went wrong in past attempts?
About carlo von lynX:
Recently Yanis Varoufakis joined the Icelandic Pirate Party's choir, asking for a new Constitution for the European Union. It is quite obvious, that such a document must be developed in a participatory utilizing the Internet. Yet, the Internet bears many threats and e-democracy platforms are prone to many fallacies. carlo von lynX has been publicly discussing potentials and risks after participating in the debut installation of Liquid Feedback which led to 2011's electoral success of the Berlin Piratenpartei. Later he joined the Italian Pirate Party in the endeavor of designing a leaderless political party, continuously governed by a permanent electronic assembly – where decisions are taken together. At first it didn't work, but after several years of design re-iterations it now seems like the design is functional. A large-scale digital assembly or parliament is not only possible, it can also be self-governed.

André Rebentisch (OTS)
Talk of 25 minutes
From its start in 2004 Mr. Rebentisch closely followed the European Interoperability Framework (EIF) dossier. The document sparked a fruitful controversy about the promotion and use of open standards in the European public sector. External interference, trade sensitivities and a weak stance towards competition lead to a broader EIFv2 - which is right now under yet another review by the European Commission. The talk will focus on the EIF potentials for open technologies and also briefly touch upon the ongoing trade negotiations and TTIP disclosures.

About Nicco Kunzmann:
OTS was born in April of 2012 in Berlin. The first local RailsGirls event — a free tech workshop with freshly created learning material dedicated to an audience of women of all ages and backgrounds during a both thrilling and cosy weekend — had just taken place, and had created much admiration and enthusiasm in its wake. Why not expand the concept to all tech topics people might possibly want to learn and open the events to an audience of all genders and experience levels? The challenge couldn’t be greater. Since then, hundreds of people have joined OTS as coaches, learners, organizers, and sponsors, in Berlin, Stockholm, and soon: even in more new cities (yours!). OpenTechSchool is a movement aiming to offer free tech education. Our events are open to technology enthusiasts of all genders, backgrounds, and experience levels, willing to coach or learn in a friendly environment. Our learning material is shared and collectively improved by the online community and anyone is welcome to use it to organize new OTS chapters anywhere in the world.

„Hallo Welt. Wir machen uns die Welt, wie sie uns gefällt“ – unter diesem Motto laden wir Euch anlässlich des Open Tech Summits dazu ein, mit uns gemeinsam zu tüfteln und zu coden. Dabei sind eurer Kreativität keine Grenzen gesetzt sind: ob es darum geht, Stoffgestalten Klänge zu entlocken, Papierkreaturen bei Dunklheit zum Leuchten zu bringen oder Schrottroboter zu bewegen. Alles ist möglich und wir sind schon ganz gespannt darauf mit Euch gemeinsam unbekannte neue Welten und Geschöpfe zu erschaffen und kennenzulernen. An verschiedenen Stationen könnt ihr Wesen, Kreaturen und Welten aus Pappe, Holz und Fundresten erschaffen und diese dann mittels Sensorik und Programmierung zum Leben erwecken. Besondere Vorkenntnisse werden nicht benötigt: dafür aber jede Menge Neugier am Entdecken, Ausprobieren und Selber machen. Dabei lernt ihr spielerisch die Grundlagen der Elektronik und Programmierung kennen. Je nach Lust und Laune könnt ihr Euch in einer Station vertiefen oder auch das Angebot an den verschiedenen Stationen miteinander kombinieren. Für Kinder im Alter von 6 – 12 Jahren. // How can fabrics conduct electricity and is it possible to build electric circuits out of paper? In our 3 hour workshop children aged 6 and older will have the possibility to tinker and explore the impact of electricity in a playful way. They can craft figures made out of paper or felt and enrich them with electric functions. With our workshop we wanna share the fascination of technology with kids and want to encourage them to hack and tinker around with everyday objects.
