Radical/Networks

Program of events is now available and ticket sales have been opened!

We are pleased to announce the speakers we will have participating at Radical Networks next month! Full program and schedule forthcoming.

We have extended the deadline for proposals for talks, panels, demos or workshops to Saturday 8/15. Go here for instructions on how to submit!

Join us for two days of speakers, panels and workshops designed to introduce the community to DIY networking. Learn how to create your own offline networks, portable web servers, mesh networks or internet gateways in hands on workshops. Attend panels where you can discuss your visions for how a localized network could support your school, your community, or your cause. Listen to speakers talk about the future of computer networks and why it’s important to understand how networks work in this age of hyper-connectivity.

The conference will be organized around the following questions and themes:
