Spring is in the air, and with that DC612 Projects is right around the corner.

Before we launch into the DC612 Projects debut in June with Recon month, Josh More will be brining you a Presentation on Presentations

or better said “How to Suck Less at Presenting”.

We will discover how not use bullet points when there are so many appealing varieties and much much more.

No doubt there will also be War Drive planning by @tactifail and the continued search for a sticker tsar/czar or maybe a Ctzicker Ctzar.

This Thursday, April 13th, come out to play with your local DC group!

Everyone’s favorite,  SlideDeck Roulette will be the nights entertainment.

Think you want to get good at presenting a topic?  Ever wonder how those improve comedy performers do it?  Taking the best of both worlds, we now give you SlideDeck Roulette.  Here’s how it works – when your turn is up, we shuffle the deck and present you 5 ‘never seen by you’ slides. You have 3-5 minutes to present on whatever you think the topic might be?  Get creative.  Sure, you don’t know the topic – But your audience is just as clueless as you.

*Rules governing SlideDeck roulette will be fast and loose.

**Bring your laptop to throw your own SlideDeck in the mix.

Bonus March Meetup!

Hey everyone!

If you are free on March 27th at 6PM, we will be hosting a second meetup at the Wilde Roast!

Josh More (frequent speaker on topics ranging from infrared photography, to evading digital surveillance, to infosec industry trends) has taken several interns under his wing and wants to show them what the hacking community is all about.  All of us attend DC612 for different reasons – many are here to learn, some are here to teach, others just want to meet with like-minded individuals to socialize.  Maybe it’s all three.  Whatever the reasons, we have all grown professionally as a result no matter how far along we are in our careers.  The hacking community is built upon sharing information freely, and we owe it to ourselves and each other to not only share that information within our group, but to invite others in and expand so they can add to the collective whole.  Like the Borg, but less implant-y.

In the spirit of teaching, learning, and growing as a community, Josh is inviting his interns to join us for an evening of short talks from whoever has something to share.  You don’t need a Power Point presentation, or to dress up, or even to stand up.  Talk about something for which you have a passion, or a project you are working on, or some cool new technological concept you recently learned.  5 minutes, 2 minutes, 60 seconds, however much time you need to get a group of interns excited!

Josh will also be so kind as to provide appetizers for the group, in case you needed any more reason to join us  🙂

Hope to see you all then!

DC612 – Thursday March 9th, 6PM @ Wilde Roast

Hello again!

On this month’s agenda we have a first-time speaker and relative newcomer to the DC612 scene: Taya Ellingworth.

She will be taking us back more than a hundred years, into the dimly-lit parlors of the Victorian-age seers, mediums, psychics, and clairvoyants.  Possibly considered early hackers, they employed an arsenal of clever tricks – some simple and others fairly complex – to part their marks from their money, and convince the masses that they could commune with the dead, read minds, and more.  Taya will provide a history of some of the more well-known mystics, and their routines, at the risk of angering their spirits.

As always, food and drink orders starting at 6 with the presentation beginning around 7 or when enough people have shown up.

See you then!
