Hax
Hackerspace Weekend Festival

What follows is the call for presentations for the Hax 6.0 festival on May 3, 2025. As of 2025-03-25 we now have enough talks, but may be able to squeeze something in. Reach out to discuss.

We're still looking for chill activities for the back of our space:


Calling everyone out there that likes to hack, make, build, create, compose, disassemble, remix and re-assemble. Skullspace is a hackerspace in downtown Winnipeg. On Saturday May 3, 2025 our 6th annual festival Hax will feature talks of interest to a broad hackerspace community in the daytime in our newly upgraded classroom.

Tell us about your hacks!

Remote, pre-recorded, and anonymous talks can be accommodated.

Honouria are on offer to encourage new voices and new ideas. You can see a list of prior topics, but please feel free to think outside the box.

If you don't have a presentation in mind, help refer us to someone new. If you can, prioritize referrals to people underrepresented in hackerspaces. Take that as guidance and not an imperative, everyone is welcome. Our event stage is not competitive or prestigious.

Contact the organizing chair Mark Jenkins mark@parit.ca or other organizing channels and persons.

There's no deadline, we will be filling the schedule and accepting further talk ideas as they come in the weeks ahead, so reach out ASAP.

Is standing in front of a classroom crowd intimidating? We also need small hands-on workshops and exhibits to fill time and space in our chill workshop and lounge areas for both Saturday May 3rd and Sunday May 4th. Honouria may also be available for this. Reach out!
