|
||||
This is HackerPublicRadio, today your hosts are DOSMAN and Shane and we're going to talk
|
||||
a little bit about what happened at Nauticon this year, what we did for the event and some
|
||||
other stuff, lockpicking, other stuff that we did also.
|
||||
Some real famous artwork that totally didn't get voted up, but it should have been.
|
||||
Yes, George had some tremendous artwork, gosh, I don't even think I could describe it.
|
||||
I won't even try, maybe we can post it in the show, no, there we go, that would be perfect.
|
||||
Yeah, so I guess Nauticon happened the first week in April this year.
|
||||
We will Shane did a bunch of work leading up for the froggy and tiger, asked us if we
|
||||
were going to be doing the lockpicking pogo to this year and we kind of got together and
|
||||
said, yeah, okay, and what all did you do for the pogo to this year?
|
||||
Well, the design idea started last year, actually, while I was at DevCon's lockpicking
|
||||
village, and I thought, wow, this is going to be a royal pain if somebody comes along
|
||||
like what happened at Nauticon this year and comes along and just attacks a lock with
|
||||
such fury that they break it immediately.
|
||||
And you know, how are they going to really change that out?
|
||||
So when I ended up moving out here and started actually being a part of a group and all,
|
||||
I looked at designing something that would be modular, that would vaguely travel well
|
||||
and that could have stuff easily changed out on it.
|
||||
So being that I spent a lot of time in Japan, I started out by making some Tori gates,
|
||||
which are the gates that you see in front of most temples.
|
||||
And I took those, I made, I made wall pieces that go in the centerpiece, there's two slats
|
||||
per gate, and those are held in with, with eye bolts, and you just yank the eye bolts
|
||||
out and you can swap those planks out pretty much however you want to do that.
|
||||
And on the eye bolts, we had padlocks and then the walls themselves, there were three
|
||||
locks each.
|
||||
And the wall is kind of progressed from really easy to sort of easy to nobody opened any
|
||||
lock on this wall.
|
||||
And you know, we were cool, we managed to open up one of the locks on the wall, but not
|
||||
while I was actually in the wall.
|
||||
And then there was another lock that everybody was convinced was broken, but I opened it,
|
||||
so it's not broken.
|
||||
It's still there, too.
|
||||
Boom, it's open.
|
||||
Yeah, the thing you've been working on for the last two hours, sorry about you.
|
||||
It works.
|
||||
Yeah, we're really sorry if you're listening, but that was funny.
|
||||
I did manage to pull out about four tons of dust that came off of all the pins, so they
|
||||
probably don't really look like pins inside of there anymore, was everybody attacking
|
||||
them.
|
||||
Yes, yes.
|
||||
A lot of good damage on the locks.
|
||||
Gosh, they've got pictures up.
|
||||
Yes, yes, on the Bloomington Fools website, we of course are a locks board group, this
|
||||
fraternal order of locks board.
|
||||
And of course, based out of the city of Bloomington, Indiana, we have BloomingtonFools.org and
|
||||
we've got a couple photos up there.
|
||||
You can also just go to Flickr and look up for a Nodicon 5 2008 photos.
|
||||
Make sure you skip that one guy that took a bunch of scenery pictures and tagged it with
|
||||
Nodicon.
|
||||
Yeah.
|
||||
Thank you.
|
||||
Thanks.
|
||||
Dush.
|
||||
So yeah, yeah, so you spent a lot of time on this leading up to Nodicon.
|
||||
I spent a lot of time on it on my weekends and everything.
|
||||
It's stained and it's rubbed with Dutch oil and I made some shingles and stuff like that.
|
||||
But I don't know, it was a fun project for me.
|
||||
It was much more fun than standing down on my kitchen cabinets and restaining those.
|
||||
But the part that really we were showing out for is because Dotsman gave a great and
|
||||
well-received talk.
|
||||
Thank you.
|
||||
Thank you.
|
||||
Yeah.
|
||||
I actually gave a talk.
|
||||
This was my first con that I've actually given a talk at and I talked about.
|
||||
My talk was entitled something like mechanic or lockpicking into the new frontier for
|
||||
mechanical to electronic locks or something.
|
||||
I don't know.
|
||||
Yeah.
|
||||
Something like that.
|
||||
And I talked basically a basic primer on lockpicking and then went into some high security
|
||||
locks and then talked about some electronic lock systems that I've built devices for that
|
||||
unlock them and talked about some things I'd like to get my hands on like cyber lock.
|
||||
If anyone has a cyber lock, I'd love to get ahold of any Dotsman at packets nippers.org
|
||||
and I'll reimburse you handsomely or at least in some form or fashion.
|
||||
So anyway, that seemed to be well-received and that was really fun getting to do that
|
||||
and get to talk to some of the people that I first saw a presentation on lockpicking
|
||||
from that came up and you know gave me a congrats on all that like Jimmy Chan and Colonel
|
||||
Panic and Idal, other folks.
|
||||
So some of the other stuff leading up to NaughtyCon, George and Zach put in a lot of time working
|
||||
on some music for the block party.
|
||||
We made that reference about George's artworks, stunning the audience.
|
||||
He's had a wow photos submission and that was a very the the tamest picture of his and it really did
|
||||
stun everybody.
|
||||
I don't think that I mean everybody had a wisecrack for everything else but this because
|
||||
really nothing really top the wisecrack that was the artwork in the first place.
|
||||
Yes, yes and for those I guess I should back up a little bit.
|
||||
For those that might not be aware, for the last two years now Jason Scott and Radman
|
||||
have been hosting something called Block Party at NaughtyCon.
|
||||
It's a part of the same event and it's basically a hair sort of an homage to the old demo
|
||||
scene and they have all kinds of entries you could do write a program that does visual
|
||||
and audio stuff on your Commodore or on something using the latest you know programming
|
||||
framework for X86 architecture or whatever you want to program for and then there's also
|
||||
there were like photography, compos, music, different types of music, eight-bit, streaming
|
||||
music, modern, electronic but the programming was the big deal with that.
|
||||
There was really some awesome stuff out there I was really good to see a lot of people
|
||||
turn out and a lot of people just throw their stuff out there you know whether or not it
|
||||
was a centaur with a goatee face or if it was somebody's great picture that they had
|
||||
taken or if it was just some crazy music that was developed it's that type of thing is
|
||||
just way beyond me you know I can stick to something that's about it.
|
||||
And there were some great people from that scene there.
|
||||
Some of the people I never heard of but a couple of them I was familiar with like a
|
||||
trickster who did the full motion video on an XT thing that makes makes slash odd or some
|
||||
side every every couple of months.
|
||||
He had another entry this year there was Jerry Ellsworth who I think is really cool that
|
||||
it was fairly well known in the Commodore scene for well designing her own Commodore board
|
||||
using FPGA's and other equipment just doing lots of cool stuff with Commodore she designed
|
||||
the D TV Commodore game joystick for home shopping network which was basically a Commodore
|
||||
inside a joystick one of those type of game systems and oh yeah if you open it up there's
|
||||
like you know a place where you can solder and keyboard jack and all that kind of stuff
|
||||
on there so it's sort of like a sort of hiding and sneaking and modern Commodore out to
|
||||
the masses and for the tinkers that want to mess with them.
|
||||
So anyway lots of cool people lots of good things out there going on.
|
||||
So I guess to go back into the lock picking aspect deviant olem of tool was there also
|
||||
in the lock picking pagoda and was just doing a kickass job with the Gringo Warrior and Gringo
|
||||
were I don't you want to talk about that a little bit? I can. Gringo Warrior is essentially
|
||||
a scenario challenge that finds you getting down to Tijuana with fine Dan Kaminsky and waking
|
||||
up being harassed by people that may or may not be law enforcement but your handcuffed
|
||||
in a room and they want your money and they're going to give you a little while to think
|
||||
about it. So in the process they neglected to take your lock picks away from you. So the
|
||||
scenario starts out with you and handcuffs and there are see there's four other positions
|
||||
that you have to go through that we don't necessarily have to go through them all but you've
|
||||
got a door lock you need to pick then there is a cabinet lock and then a dead bolt and
|
||||
after that you have to go through a car lock and the cabinet and the car lock are optional
|
||||
as far as how far you get away but this is all scored on cool points and originality
|
||||
and difficulty as there's three sets of locks that you can choose from at each station.
|
||||
It's a very strong scoring system for various levels depending on how you start out with
|
||||
the handcuffs there's three or four different positions you can start out with and the more
|
||||
difficult position you start out and get you more points and it's also a five minute you have
|
||||
five minutes to do this entire course so time is also a factor as well as creativity and you know
|
||||
how difficult of each lock that you pick. Neither of us won. We tried but there was a guy
|
||||
he was a cool guy that was hanging out at the lock picking pagoda last year not a con 2007
|
||||
Dave Klingman and he flew through the course in like a minute and a half or a minute. He went
|
||||
through he had his handcuffs I think he had him behind his back do you do double lock behind
|
||||
his back or just behind his back. I don't know it was at least behind his back it was behind his
|
||||
back I can't remember if they were double locked or not but he got out of that and went through all
|
||||
the more difficult locks nobody actually went through the most difficult door lock or through
|
||||
the most difficult padlock because it was a new lock that isn't quite the same but I'm not going
|
||||
to talk about that one too much. Yeah yeah I don't know when I did it let's see my first run I made
|
||||
it in three minutes and one second I believe and I just did the medium locks all the way across
|
||||
I may have done one hard lock maybe the cabinet lock yeah you would be pretty good and I for early
|
||||
on I was doing pretty good I think I had 404 points 404 yeah you but obviously since I was giving
|
||||
a talk on lock picking it was definitely necessary to disqualify me from the prize which I think
|
||||
quite reasonable I was just happy that since I was giving a talk on picking I I didn't suck it
|
||||
up on the corners oh what were the prizes that Deviant had oh man I cannot remember the artist name
|
||||
but he had two really cool prints from a British artist I want to say if I'm wrong on any of this
|
||||
don't blame me but there were some really cool shots from a graffiti artist that that he just
|
||||
kind of transposed into other situations one of them was a one of the billions of cameras that's
|
||||
around London it was pointed at a wall and he had spray painted what are you looking at on the wall
|
||||
that was pretty good having been through he threw a couple of times and seen myself way too often
|
||||
um yeah it's just it's just creepy I'm only about through Glasgow it's the other
|
||||
airport I think I went through the other one and I was rushed all the way through so I didn't
|
||||
get chance to check out the security cameras or do anything that are you're not missing anything
|
||||
it's all on tape somewhere if you want to see it again I'm sure sure I'm sure I'll be
|
||||
imprisoned at some point for something and I'll get to see all this that is not a good admission
|
||||
of any kind of guilt or whatsoever so yeah so gosh not a con was a blast um Shane was a lock
|
||||
picking pagoda room pretty much the entire weekend yeah I have no idea actually what happened
|
||||
not a con aside from what three of them I did go see the block party judging but that's because
|
||||
it was at three in the morning and everybody else wanted to as well the first night we went back
|
||||
to go make sure that nobody thought that it would be funny to pick the lock to the pagoda room and
|
||||
steal all of our stuff and yeah we had the room open for about five minutes and then the room was
|
||||
full again so we we stayed there for another three or four hours yeah yeah miss some cool people in
|
||||
that time that was uh definitely as kind of nice and relaxed there but uh finally around two
|
||||
thirty or three we had just had to shut it down we it was it was a quite a long Friday uh but it
|
||||
was definitely cool um and oh yeah um speaking of the three a.m. demo awards Jason Scott if you're
|
||||
listening I'd really like to see the demos because I think I was way too intoxicated at that point
|
||||
I just cannot remember any of the demos I saw some photos that seemed to possibly jog some
|
||||
memories for me on flicker but no video of that so yeah I don't remember any of the demos that I
|
||||
saw I just remember um when the people won and thinking hmm I think I saw that but yeah after
|
||||
afterwards we had conversations about that and um none of us seemed to be able to remember
|
||||
what exactly happened yeah yeah so so demo scene dot us is the block party site so at some point
|
||||
they're they're supposed to be posting the uh uh all the demos all the entries for all the
|
||||
compos on there so hopefully soon it's not like Jason Scott's not busy or anything making
|
||||
two or documentary's and running block party and whatever else he does so what like we like we
|
||||
all are busy or something get on it so gosh let's see we saw the award ceremony Sunday uh
|
||||
saw heck I don't know will happen wow I don't uh some some guy ran into my car oh yeah that was
|
||||
nice that was great um it's not not very hacker-esque but I will tell you that some people are
|
||||
still dumb enough to put their socials on their on their driver's license so guy in the big white
|
||||
Lincoln don't know what to tell you yeah oh man oh yeah well I didn't have to drive this year
|
||||
I suppose but anyway I'll go in that um yeah so Zach and George did a we see for the the packet
|
||||
team packet sniffers entry uh the the song that Zach and George made and I had a small contribution
|
||||
towards um with a little voiceover that I did came in second place for the the music entry
|
||||
and uh so that was really fun and a lot very cool and who won first place on that I have no idea
|
||||
was that one that uh fat man wonder was that a different one probably fat man and Jerry
|
||||
yeah I know uh there was one that the fat man did win and well you know some people do have a certain
|
||||
amount of experience over others and considering he was showing off all the professional stuff he
|
||||
does for like big budget movies are relatively big budget movies that's movies with a budget
|
||||
movies with a budget absolutely that's not too unexpected but
|
||||
oh all right so I guess uh I don't know there's not a whole lot more I guess I have that we have
|
||||
to talk about it not a con there are lots of things that went on oh yeah
|
||||
anyone if you if you went to not a con and you saw the person dancing around
|
||||
um and the clean suit um I'll drop some docs on Zach that that was Zach by the way
|
||||
if you didn't know that I all the photos I saw of that they said huh some guy in a clean suit we
|
||||
have no idea who it was that yeah he needs credit for that I've never seen somebody bring so many
|
||||
costumes to one event before that was quite intrigued go figure no comment I'm sorry Zach
|
||||
you'll be able to defend yourself in another episode of hacker public radio here um I'm sure
|
||||
so future stuff uh next year's not a con I don't know what'll happen but we might have bigger
|
||||
and even better things going on we are we uh started working on our plans for our next
|
||||
device that we're gonna unveil more than likely a not a con next year uh for a mixed media
|
||||
challenge uh we're also thinking to have some speed picking competitions and a few other things
|
||||
added to the pickup because it was just overwhelming how many people showed up in the first place
|
||||
so uh please come back again yes we won't sell out of everything this time I think I think uh
|
||||
the future is very very promising for lock picking and not a con so um I don't know if there's
|
||||
anything else you can think of I think we go ahead and start wrapping up this episode yeah I
|
||||
know that we're gonna uh work on filming the uh yes the re-installation of the Ocho
|
||||
into my house so yes we have a new victim who's willing to uh put up the uh the Ocho at his place
|
||||
since we had to take it down for since Zach moved away um which uh one of the if you're not
|
||||
familiar with that one of the earlier episodes of hacker public radio we we discussed the Ocho
|
||||
in part 15 a.m. broadcasting um I you should just probably you could search for part 15 that'll
|
||||
find it um that's what I did you know so that's about it eventually there's gonna be another
|
||||
package in every episode whether does man likes it or not yeah yeah uh we'll we'll I don't know
|
||||
we've been saying it for years but I think it might become a reality this time we've got some
|
||||
some enthusiasm again to I get some stuff going and uh we're gonna what we'll have in episode six
|
||||
sometime in the relatively near future that means in the next year yeah um all right well I
|
||||
guess uh I've been Dawesman I'm Shane and uh this is a hacker public radio and always remember if
|
||||
you want to host an episode uh just go to the hacker public radio dot org site and you can get a
|
||||
hold of uh enigma or someone there that you so you can go ahead and you know record an episode get
|
||||
it submitted uh we'll get you hooked up um anyone can contribute content it's a fun way to build your
|
||||
your personal speaking skills and other just talking about cool stuff that other technologists
|
||||
and hackers might like so I so I guess that's it and I'm sorry that's about it
|
||||
and we'll talk to you next time thank you for listening to hacker public radio
