The characters inhabiting the world of the 'Hackertales', the latest book by Denis Moschitto and Evrim Sen (authors of Hackerland), are all heroes or anti-heroes from the founding times of digital lifestyle. Their obsessions and
sacrifices find their literary expression in these 'Hackertales', whose theme centres around the fever of the electronic world.The authors' guest is John Draper alias 'Cap'n Crunch', one of the first 'Hackers' to make free
phone calls in a rather unusual way. One day, he had a little whistle in a cereal box of the 'Cap'n Crunch Co.' and he soon found out that, with this whistle, he could produce sounds affecting the American 'Ma Bell' phone company. By
trial and error he discovered the specific frequencies needed to interrupt the charge-units of analogous call-computers. As a consequence, he was able to make phone calls without being charged. An ordinary gimmick from a cereal box
allowed him to deceive one of the biggest call-computers. This did not only make him find his alias, 'Cap'n Crunch', but also brought 'Blue Boxing' (BB) into being and, a little later, custody in its trail. Since then, the story of
'Cap'n Crunch' has been passed on from 'phreaker' to 'phreaker' (from: phone freak) like a legend. The whole event will be transmitted live on the internet from popkomm.de/pop&poets. In the hall there will be internet terminals ready for surf. |
