HackThePromise 2025 explores hacking as a socio-technical practice and a method of resistance, imagination, and transformation. It’s about breaking open systems, challenging power, and rehearsing new futures. From creative interventions to grassroots infrastructures, the festival invites playful, political, and artistic hacks that rethink how we live, learn, organize—and dream of what comes next.

Today, after almost 11 years, I deleted my #bitwigstudio #configuration from both my workstation #pc and my #laptop, which I had maintained from version to version for all these years, just to start from scratch. 🤓
I went through settings, mappings, templates, presets, collections etc. and configured everything as if I was doing it for the first time. Almost like tearing down and #rebuilding, #rewiring the #studio. ☺️

"They spent far less time playing with, talking to, touching, or even making eye contact with their friends and families, thereby reducing their participation in social behaviour that is essential for successful human #development.

"The members of gen Z are, therefore, the test subjects for a radical new way of growing up, far from the real‐world interactions of small communities in which humans evolved. Call it the Great #Rewiring of Childhood. It’s as if they became the first generation to grow up on Mars. And it has turned them into the #Anxious #Generation.

"There was little sign of an impending mental illness crisis among adolescents in the 2000s. Then, quite suddenly, in the early 2010s, things changed. In just five years between 2010 and 2015, across the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and beyond, the number of young people with anxiety, #depression and even suicidal tendencies started to rise sharply... The increases were similar for both sexes and happened across all races and social classes. And among a variety of mental health diagnoses, #anxiety rates rose diagnoses, anxiety rates rose the most."

Generation Anxiety: smartphones have created a gen Z mental health crisis – but there are ways to fix it

Those born after 1995 were the first people in history to go through puberty with a portal to an alternative universe in their pockets – and the toll this has taken on their wellbeing has been devastating
