Hello Moritz, Great announcement! Best of luck on your tour I'm looking forward to the posts!

In January I've finally made it to Japan, it is amazing here. Unfortunately there is just one true hackerspace in Japan, which is great but I toured it already :-))

Have a great trip and I'm wishing you safe journey. I've contacts on hackers in Ireland, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic and Germany so I'll let them know (and you) when I see that you are ready to move to the region.

tl;dr: I will tour Europe with video/audio equipment and want to meet all sorts of P2P activists. Tour starts in one week. I hope to get your help to locate interesting people, places and events.

Long version, today's announcement:

I am excited to finally announce the beginning of my tour! As a reminder, the Hackerbus serves as a “framework” for documenting modern forms of living and working: It carries professional equipment for high quality movie making, taking pictures, recording interviews – whatever you and me make out of it! There is no way for me to do this alone, and it is unlikely to find someone to tour with me the whole year. While I do have some ideas about what to visit, I don’t want to constrain this tour too much, to be open for all kinds of suggestions and detours. I hope you understand that for this reason I can only give you a very rough schedule. Please contact me if you know people and places I should come visit!

* from March 18th, 2012: Switzerland * April 2012: Southern France, Spain * May 2012: Portugal, Northern France

Some of the equipment:

* Panasonic Lumix GH2 with 14-42mm and 20mm lenses * Rode NTG-2 shotgun microphone * Zoom H4N audio recorder * >10 TB storage * last not least: a van with several spare seats and a bed etc.

What do you get from inviting me? Many of you know me as the founder of Torservers.net. Apart from the obvious offer to get your message out on video, I am very interested to talk about communication security (proper use of PGP, Tor etc), apocalyptical thinking as philosophical discipline, and community building.

In preparation I was not as organized as I could have been, but hey – we’re all in it for the fun! ;-) Please don’t be mad at me if you have already contacted me and never heard back. Ping me again!

Stay tuned for more updates soon. Now is a good time to add the RSS feed to your reader and follow me on Twitter.
