Schedule FSCONS X

In cryptographic spaces, we are abstracts - a secret bitstring which creates digital signatures which transfer value or create secret channels over which private communication may occur. Knowing secrets, and penetrating other's secrets, are absolute entitlements to property and power.

In virtual realities, the semantics of the body are nonlinear and arbitrary: some systems give you only mock hands, others only a disembodied gaze and a button. But as the technology progresses, the question of body, mind and embodiment will become increasingly clear to our virtual experience.

So we must ask a question: "what does your computer think you are?" How are you experienced by your technology? How does it touch you, and what parts of your totality can it understand, express and respond to?
