Hacking
Hack
Originally:„A quick job that produces what is needed, but not well.“
1950s: Amateur radio enthusiasts defined the term hacking as creatively tinkering
to improve performance.
Hacker's jargon:"A clever solution to a problem."
„An appropriate application of ingenuity.“
HackerSoftware
● Passwords, programming, networks, information, security
Hardware● DIY, radio, satellites, 3Dprinters, open
Manufacturing
Wetware● DNA sequencing and modifikation, synthetic
life forms, genetic code/data, security
Social Engineering● Context displacement, political activism,
media art, public oppinion making
Hacker
"Hacker ist jemand, der versucht, einen Weg zu finden, wie man mit einer Kaffeemaschine Toast zubereiten kann"
„A hacker is someone who tries to find a way to use a coffeemachine to make toast“
Wau Holland, ccc
„A hacker is someone, who has joy in the circumvention of limitations..“ Robert Bickford

Jugaad
Hack vs. Jugaad
"Jugaad is a survival tactic, whereas a hack is an intellectual art form; i.e. Jugaad is the wile of the poor, and hack the pastime of the affluent
cerebral. Jugaad is a hack to get around or deal with a lack of or limited resources, and has a class component to it jugaad are things
poor but clever people do to make the most of the resources they have. They do what they need to do, without regard to what is
supposed to be possible."

POTATO STARCH MEDIUM: Slice potatoes and boil them in 1 L of water for 1 h; drain the liquid through a sieve and gauze to get rid of the potatoes; add 10g of sugar and 13g of agar; stir; pour liquid in glass container, add enough water to the pressure cooker to cover the bottom (0,5 cm); heat under pressure for 20 min; let steam out; pour medium into plates (0,25 cm); let set for at least 4 hours.
MAKING THE JEWELRY: For the living bacterial jewelry press a finger gently onto the plate, seal Petri dish with hotglue gun and add string, a ring or a broche needle. Colonies will appear in a day or two, at first bacterial cultures, as the culture ages filamentous fungi will overgrow.
