The 24th Chaos Communication Congress, "the annual four-day conference organized by the Chaos Computer Club is taking place in Berlin right now. The Congress offers lectures and workshops on a multitude of topics and attracts a diverse audience of thousands of hackers, scientists, artists, and utopians from all around the world." Lectures are also being streamed live (Check the CCC Tube)
Among other topics: Open Source, a capitalist movement. Free Software, Free Drugs and an ethics of death; Cyborg Feminism, The Arctic Cold War; Absurd Mathematics; Linguistic Hacking, How to know what a text in an unknown language is about? Quantum Cryptography and Possible Attacks; Freifunkerei, And a Do-It-Yourself society against the state; All Tomorrow's Condensation, A steampunk puppet extravaganza by monochrom and friends.
At 00:30 CET today you should be able to watch "I can count every star in the heavens above but I have no heart I can't fall in love…". The image of computers in popular music, presented by the Vienna art collective monochrom (linked above).
Recordings will also be made available to download in a few days time; here are last years 23c3 lectures.

Looks like I've got at least one friend speaking there. Every con has its own flavor, I've always found CCC's emphasis on political & social activism intriguing.
