Episode 17 sees the Bucket List Gamers look at Matthew Smith's surreal ZX Spectrum Miner saga, with 1983's Manic Miner (30) and the 1984 follow-up Jet Set Willy (55).Hints of Monty Python cross with imagery that wouldn't be out of place on an LSD trip, as Willy the Miner makes his way through a plethora of bizarre locations including The Nightmare Room, The Cuckoo's Nest, The Entrance to Hades, The Endorian Forest and Eugene's Lair.You're going to need to perform a Quirkafleeg to get through this one!We also discuss some games that SHOULD have been on the list that aren't, namely Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon, and the mysterious ways in which Retro Gamer's list was put together.Enjoy!

My guest today is Tony Coles, a freelance videogame writer and former videogame PR. The length of the episode gives you some idea of how passionate and excited Tony is by videogames. This episode runs on the rocket fuel of enthusiasm and nostalgia. We talk about Tony's first experience of Space Invaders on a German Military Base and how that continued to be the defining game of his youth, early video game hacks involving shoot em up simulators and Maria Whittaker, some horror stories of play testing, why video game PR was not for him, and how he was the first writer to ever get a named credit in Edge. We also chat about the wonders of the SID chip, how Jet Set Willy instilled a love of exploration, how much we miss the Aki wrestling games, why Ikaruga is the most powerful example of games as art and why more games should have a shout button.

Chris's love of videogames is peppered through many of his books, but most distinctly in his recent novel Bedlam which has subsequently become it's own videogame. We talk Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy, videogames as fuel for imagination, trolling Dreamcast players, and the parallels between the Quake scene of the 90s and the Punk scene of the 70s. All fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Panel - Diversity in Information Security Jennifer Imhoff-Dousharm Informatics student, co-organizer of theSummit, NCWIT affiliate member Sandy “Mouse” Clark Security Researcher and part-time Phd. candidate Kristin Paget Jolly Full time hacker Vyrus Independent Security Consultant Scott Martin CIO Spikes Security Discussion from the point of view of a diverse panel of leading representatives currently in or thinking of becoming part of the Information Security industry. This panel will give you insight to the evolutionary landscape of diversity in the hacking community. We will present statistical evidence showing the lack of sub-culture representation in the hacking community and while these numbers have been decreasing we can still work to encourage cultural variance. By analyzing how diversity is critical to improving the information security industry we will explore positive approaches to encourage recruiting and retention of deficient subcultures, removing of unconscious bias’ and discouraging inclusiveness, and introduce the audience to a wide variety of existing support structures. There will be no witch hunt here, there will be no judgement, only information. All of this and more will be answered with open and honest dialogue into one of the most controversial issues currently within our community. Jennifer Imhoff-Dousharm - Lil Jinni is currently a student of informatics and network security. She is a primary coordinator for Vegas 2.0 and co-founder/principal of the Cuckoo's Nest hacker space. She is an affiliate member of NCWIT and avid participant in many local women in tech groups. When not studying, planning theSummit fundraiser, or herding hackers, she spends her free cycles as a Curiosity Hacked guild leader and Kitchen OverLord contributor. Twitter: @lil_jinni Sandy Clark (Mouse) is a security researcher and part-time Phd. candidate in the Distributed Systems Lab at the University of Pennsylvania and is advised by Matt Blaze and co-advised by Jonathan Smith. Her research focuses on understanding the mechanisms involved in the computer security Arms Race, and in modeling the cyber-security eco-system. Early in her career, she wrote the back-up flight control computer for the US Air Force F-16 aircraft, and a gate-level software simulator for NASA), after several years as a sys-admin for Princeton University, she ended up in the hacker community. It was at a hackercon that someone introduced her to Matt Blaze and he invited her to come hang around his lab at Penn. Her first project was breaking wiretap systems and with its success and after much encouragement and mentoring, she got the courage to enroll as a student. It is taking much longer for her to get her degree than she thought (going back to school is hard as a grownup), but definitely worth it! Her broad experience, excessive curiosity and ability to make connections from many different areas is leading to some interesting new ways to think about systems security. She's still an active member of the hacker community and considers it one of her missions in life to bridge the gap between hackers and academia. Sandy can be reached at clarks@cis.upenn.edu or saender@cis.upenn.edu Kristin Paget - Princess Kristin hacks hardware, software, networks, radios, people, the law, herself, and society - and she’s still getting warmed up. She’s been hacking things ever since she heard that POKE 35136,0 gave her infinite lives in Manic Miner, and she's truly thrilled to be returning to Def Con after taking a couple of years off the speaking circuit to de-anonymize her brain. Twitter: @KristinPaget Jolly - Hacker, Photographer and conference addict. Jolly has previously been a back to back winner of Hacker Fortress. In the past 2 years he has not stayed in any one place more than 11 days. His team, Jolly and Friends, has won Capture the Flag. Avid health nut. Loves taking advantage of vendors easy contests to win prizes at conferences. Twitter: @Jolly Carl "Vyrus" Vincent is a self-proclaimed nerd who learned to build radios from his grandfather, a fellow nerd who worked in the aerospace industry. Carl first attended Def Con as a teenager and earned money doing small IT projects while still in high school. Today he his an independent security consultant. Twitter: @vyrus001 Scott Martin is currently CIO of Spikes Security and formerly the Director of Firewall Operations for Symantec Corporation.

Retro Entre Amigos – Segunda temporada – Programa 01 Volvemos con un nuevo episodio de RetroEntreAmigos. Un programa con una duración mayor de lo habitual y en el que, entre otras cosas, repasaremos lo que ha sido RetroMálaga 2013. Como novedad de esta nueva temporada, tenemos la sección “Os traigo un juego” en la que haremos un repaso al juego “Alter Ego” publicado por Activision en el año 1986. No faltará a la cita, nuestro amigo “McLeod_Ideafix” con su rebautizada sección “Misterios de 4 Bits y menos” XD en la que tendrá un mano a mano con nuestro invitado “Radastan” para hablar de QLs, Sam Coupes y diversos retro proyectos. El tema de portada en esta ocasión, será el de “Palabras para la venta”. En esta parte, trataremos aquellos slogans, frases o simple propaganda con que nos han asaltado los fabricantes desde el principio de los tiempos. Frases como “La máquina alucinante”, o el cacareado “Blast Processing” serán diseccionadas por los contertulios sin piedad pero con el adecuado punto de vista que nos da la nostalgia. Todo esto y mucho menos, lo divino, lo humano y lo anticuado en dos horas y media de amistad, charla y viejunez diversa. Espero que lo disfrutéis tanto como lo hemos hecho nosotros grabándolo. Pedimos disculpas por adelantado por algunas interferencias en el audio producto de un móvil que se coló en la reunión sin ser invitado. El dueño será adecuadamente condenado a jugar al Manic Miner hasta el fin de los tiempos. Saludos Josua Ckultur
