Team Members

Vacancies

Team:Content is in need of reviewers to get a good idea of what people would want to see at WHY2025. You will be blind reviewing submissions in the CFP in your interest/skill range, rating the content and giving your opinion on the match with WHY2025. This will need to be done in May and June.

Contact content@why2025.org to get involved!

Provisional Team Members

It would be good to know which team you are interested in being involved with. The separation between Content/Reviewers/Speaker Desk was brought up in the lessons learned from last year and is something we will discuss in the kickoff.

Team structure

Team Content includes multiple subteams. These are their responsibilities:

  • Reviewers - rating the submissions received via CFP.
  • Speaker Desk - processing speaker requests shortly before the event, supporting speakers on site, and finalizing expense paperwork after the event.
  • Heralds - Annoucing the speakers on stage, keeping the audience entertained during breaks, providing useful info, controlling the crowd.
  • Content - planning, coordinating intra- and inter-team and doing any and all administrative stuff, organizing the CFP, etc. And everything else not covered above.

Commmunication

Very important! Please add yourself to the mailing list here so you get information and invites to meetings etc.

If you want to share something with Team:Content, ideas for art, artists, speakers to invite or whatever: please SEND AN E-MAIL so we don't forget stuff. E-mail will ensure that we won't forget your awesome idea.

Meetings and minutes

Meetings are every two weeks on Wednesday at 19:00 (Amsterdam time) at https://meet.why2025.org/teamcontent


Meeting minutes will be uploaded after the meeting. The pad used for the specific meeting will be linked in the minutes before the meeting, the one that has "<- current" in front of it.

CFP version 1.2 (11-04-2025)

The CFP is live under version 1.1 and can be found at cfp.why2025.org. More in depth blogs about the philosophies behind the content We Highly Yearn for are in the works. If you have any questions about the CFP, need some help with a submission, or are wondering if your idea fits WHY2025, please reach out to team content via e-mail.

Talk Streams WHY 2025

We highly yearn to have the following content streams at WHY2025:

Note: Keep in mind that these streams are outlines. Your talk doesn’t need to fall neatly into exactly one category. It may overlap, it may go out of bounds. The WHY program is not a memorysafe system: so overflow that stack any way you want.

Wonderful creations: Have you created something cool? This is WHY’s show-and-tell. It can be about something you’ve built. A framework you’ve created. An in depth analysis of an interesting subject. The most fabulous explanation of difficult and misunderstood things. Or the art that you made.

Hacking: Did you break something? Did you fix it? Or did you fix it by breaking it, or was it the other way around? Hacking involves using something in a way it was not intended. This can include software, hardware, and humanware all the same

Yearn for a better future: Do you want to improve our society, yourself or influence others to self-improvement? In the Yearning stream we will have talks on ethics, privacy, politics, mental health, society and economics. Improve oneself or help uplift others.

The square hole: If your idea doesn’t fit in any of the categories above, but you think it will be cool to share at WHY, then remember that every shape fits into the square hole.

WHY2025 will also have two talk streams that overlap with some of the thematic streams, you can submit your proposal purely for these streams or you can double and present your talk twice, once in the regular streams or as a foundational or kids level:

Foundation: We want to grow the hacking community and welcome new people who might just be making their first steps into the scene, or are side stepping into new areas that they want to explore. Foundation is the place where we welcome and teach people with little prior knowledge but a lot of motivation.

Kids: Explain It Like I’m Five, but for real. Challenge yourself and present your talk to our youngest hackers in the family village. In a format, time domain and level that is appropriate for primary school children.

And we will also have a very special format for the very seasoned speakers:

Cyber Circus: Due to a change of plans we are not planning on organizing an in-the-round setup anymore.
