This Christmas saw the return of the Chaos Communications Congress, 37C3. The event returned to Hamburg for the first time back since the pandemic.
A key aspect of the event is Assemblies. Self-organized sessions/areas where hackers come together with a common interest or project. The Irish Embassy is a loose collective of people with some connection to / interest in Ireland, who travel to hacker/maker events and pool resources to create shared spaces while there.
This year’s group was from all over the island with plenty of people from Tog too. They chatted and entrained people who dropped by the assembly and even put on a workshop in the hardware hacking area. You can check out more photos from the event in our gallery.
EMFcamp in June will be the next outing of the Irish Embassy. You can follow their activities on their Mastodon account. https://chaos.social/@irishembassy
