September 19th, 2006 SkyHorse Banksy is to Art as Hackers are to I.T.Is Banksy a Hacker? Absolutely.
His own words resume his style:
The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over.
Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous.
Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something.
You don’t go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a shit.

August 14th, 2006 SkyHorse Not a new concept, but the relationship between traditional mysticism (eastern and western) and computer hacking is more compelling than it may look like at first glance.
Mke Murray’s “Hacking the Mind” talk at HOPE this year just proves my point.
As they put it:
 The similarities between the methods used to exploit a computer network and the language patterns involved in hypnosis and neuro linguistic programming (NLP) are striking. In this talk, nCircle’s director of vulnerability research Mike Murray (who is also a Master NLP practitioner and certified clinical hypnotherapist) will demonstrate the use of hypnotic language patterns, metaphors, and other patterns of influence, as well as showing how a good hypnotist structures inductions in a similar way to the methods of a skilled computer hacker. Hypnotic analogues to buffer overflows, shellcode, and other types of computer attacks will be demonstrated, leaving the audience with a deeper appreciation for language patterns and their effect on the human mind.
