//// For the English description please scroll down///

Decemberben kezdetét vette a Show & Tell című havonta megrendezésre kerülő programsorozat.

A Show & Tell egy olyan forma, mely lehetőséget teremt alkotóknak arra, hogy egy-egy készülő vagy friss munkájukat bemutassák és közösen megvitassák. Minden alkalommal három művész egy-egy munkája szerepel. A munka prezentációját beszélgetés követi, ahol közösen megvitatjuk a műveket.

Az április 14-én megrendezendő Show & Tell fókusza a “DIY: do it yourself! a művészetben” vagyis az intézményes kereten kívüli tanulás és öntanítás az alkotói munka során.

Az eseményen bemutatkozik:
-Mirna Antevasin (különleges vendég Hollandiából) “DIY workshop: Skill Sharing and anti-capitalism”
-Still Untitled Project
-Varga Dániel és Kovács Máté: Koncentrikus Körök
-Magyari Lilla : 10 perc (interaktív tánc impró)

A bemutatkozások és beszélgetések némelyike angolul lesz, némelyike magyarul. Minden esetben fogunk fordítani.

Célunk egy olyan platfrom létrehozása, ahol különböző területekről érkező alkotók megismerhetik egymás munkáit és munkamódszereit egy kötetlenül beszélgetésen keresztül. Az Aurórában megvalósuló program ötletét az amszterdami Gerrit Rietveld Academy Audiovizuális szakán megismert eseménysorozat adta, amely ezt a formát használja és értelmezi újra.

A lehetőség mindenki számára nyitott. Ha szeretnétek részt venni a következő események valamelyikén, jelezzétek kommentben, vagy levélben (lillamagyari@gmail.com, szeleczkirozi@gmail.com, juli.gottfried@gmail.com, showandtell@auroraonline.hu)

Ez az esemény egyben alkalom arra is, hogy az Auróra újonnan alakuló kortárs művészeti műhelye bemutatkozzon, és az érdeklődők együtt alakíthassák a műhely koncepcióját.

///////////////////

In December, a monthly organized event, so called Show& Tell series was launched in Aurora.
The Show& Tell is a format, which offers an opportunity for artists to present and discuss collectively one of their projects recently completed or in the process of making. At each occassion the project of altogether three artists is introduced, followed by a critical debate and discussion about the works.

On the 14th of April “DIY: do it yourself! in the arts” will be the focus of the Show&Tell.

Artists and projects:
-Mirna Antevasin (special guest from the Netherlands) “DIY workshop: Skill Sharing and anti-capitalism”
-Still Untitled Project
-Dániel Varga and Máté Kovács: Concentric Circles
-Lilla Magyari : 10 minutes (interactive dance impro)

Some of the talks will be held in Hungarian, some of the talks will be in English. We will translate in both cases.

The aim of the series is to create a platform, where authors of various fields can exchange thoughts about their works and methods, while learning skills to presentations and critical thinking. We hope to establish a workshop where an unrestricted and relaxed communication could take place. The idea of launching Show& Tell in the Aurora came from the Audiovisual Dpt. of Gerrit Rietveld Academy from Amsterdam, where they also use this format while reinterpreting it.

Everyone is welcome to join, and in case you are interested please comment below the post, or send us an email to szeleczkirozi@gmail.com, juli.gottfried@gmail.com
The program serves also as a framework for introducing Aurora’s newly forming art workshop which is going to be further shaped by the participants of the workshop.

Apr. 10: Internet Privacy

April 1st, 2015 by nós

Digital Privacy workshop in joe’s garage (amsterdam)

Friday April 10th 2015, 7:30pm. Internet privacy/security workshop for everybody (so you don’t have to be a computergeek), learn about things like oa useful browser plugins, PGP/GPG (email encryption), OTR (chat encryption), Tor etc etc. Bring your computer or/and usb flashdrive!!

Camera surveillance, Big Data, dragnet surveillance. Our privacy is increasingly under threat, both online and offline. Companies and government agencies make it their job to know as much about you as possible, with or without your consent. There are however plenty of ways to regain control over who does or does not get to see your information, and strong cryptography has become easy to use.

In this workshop we will explain how to reclaim your privacy in a few easy steps, what privacy-respecting alternatives are available for services of Google, and how to communicate securely using the internet or your smartphone.

After our presentation we will help you set up encrypted email, chat software and any other tools that were covered, so be sure to bring your laptop and a USB flashdrive!!

The workshop can cover the following subjects:

– Big Data and online tracking
– Useful browser plugins
– PGP/GPG (email encryption)
– OTR (chat encryption)
– Tor (online anonymity)
– TAILS (easy-to-use secure operating system)

Organized by Pinknoise, an independent and self-organized media collective. https://pinknoise.puscii.nl/

Slides + notes (in the works): http://pad.techinc.nl/p/pnprivacyworkshop

Below you will find links that explain in more detail how to install and use the tools that have been adressed during the workshop, as well as some suggested further reading.

Tutorials
EFF Surveillance Self Defensehttps://ssd.eff.org
Comprehensive list of tutorials in english on a.o. installing and using privacy tools (including PGP, OTR etc.), an introduction to threat moddeling and tips on how to keep your data and computer safe.

Security in a boxhttps://securityinabox.org
Guides in a lot of languages for using privacy tools

PGP
Explanation in dutch on the basics of GnuPG:
http://www.mdcc.cx/gnupg/gpg_5_min.html

Introduction to public key cryptography and PGP:
https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/introduction-public-key-cryptography-and-pgp

Learn how to use PGP signatures to verify documents. Most free software developers sign their installation packages so you can verify that the software has not been tampered with. The nice people of TAILS created an easy explaination on how to do this:

OTR
If you have a Riseup account and want to use OTR over their XMPP chat, then have a look at how to set that up:
https://help.riseup.net/en/chat

If you do not have a Riseup or Puscii account but still want to use OTR encrypted XMPP chats: Systemli offers free xmpp accounts and does not log content or metadata
https://www.systemli.org/en/service/xmpp.html

Tails
Tails is a live operating system, that you can start on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card. It aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity. It is an easy way to stay secure and uses all the privacy tools that have been mentioned in the workshop.
