What is TuskCon?
Is a two day hacker camp with an emphasis on hands on learning and activities, not death by powerpoint. Now running for its third year, TuskCon will showcase the beautiful sunshine coast region, with activities utilizing the surrounding environment. We encourage participation from all, especially new and novel activities that wouldn't fit into a conventional con's agenda.
Overseeing the camp is well known infosec pinniped Lord Tuskington. The official con beer is Tusker, and anyone who'd like to assist with the logistics of somehow getting a pallette of the stuff shipped from Vanuatu and not seized by customs should get in touch.
Location & date
The con will be held at Cotton Tree Caravan Park, Maroochydore on the 14th and 15th of October 2023. The venue is a 1.5 hour drive from Brisbane, with public transport from both Brisbane and Sunshine Coast airports. It is also accessible by jet ski.
Tickets
TuskCon is limited to 50 tickets, which are SOLD OUT. If you would still like to attend, note that speakers all receive a complimentary ticket. The call for papers is open below for submissions.
Program
TuskCon is based around workshops and activities, rather than an emphasis on presentations.
