[A curtain-raiser: Film and soon videogame are next-generation, structural, motion-based languages that may, if only rudimentarily at this stage, access the human brain unlike any spoken or written alphabetical-text-language (consider the amount of tears shed collectively in the dark for Gone With The Wind, as an emotional experience it compresses days of reading into a few hours). Storytelling primarily through images not words. Obviously using eyes and ears differently than reading or hearing text, film forces the brain to develop alternate memory structures since its data is received in flowing, ideally uninterrupted motion. Film also has an advantage in how it is shared collectively: the medium entrances audiences to remain rapt as it directly employs, accesses and mutates visual forms guided by voice and gesture, augmented by music. Archetypes, symbols, metaphors, all in their expressively visual forms, advancing inter-culturally through a manner purely oral or textual media (encrypted onto pages or into voice by alphabets) cannot. Film's advantages over oral-performance and written, text-based storytelling are perhaps elemental, affecting memories no alphabetical encryption can achieve; we may soon discover corollaries with brain structures, and/or biogenetic structural guidance inherently coded to archetypes and their relations in symbols and visual metaphors (some pretty basic examples: lightning to neuron firing, the glint of gold referring to the abstract concept of knowledge). Your brain on movies. Few directors are conscious of the vast potential, yet the film-narrative as an art form unmistakably, knowingly employs these metaphors and symbols and then arrays them somewhat unconsciously, somewhat collectively, sometimes hierarchically. The 20th century's convergence of the hero's shared epic-narrative from printed/oral-text to motion-visual is a revolution only a century old and is the beginning of a global narrative language structure that has only begun to take effect.' - summarized from the introduction]

With support from the global parkour community - thank you to everyone who supported our Kickstarter and made this project happen.
Help this film transform the way people see our sport by leaving a comment and sharing it with your friends, families, and communities. Let's keep moving the needle forward with the stories we tell in parkour.
From Renae and Lisa:
This film isn’t about gender inequalities or the sexualization of women in Parkour or the experience of being a woman in male-dominated sports. This film is all about highlighting high-class Parkour athletes pushing their boundaries and the boundaries of the sport. Gatecrasher follows 8 female Parkour athletes as they travel through three European cities over the course of three weeks, training, exploring and having a great time.
This film is for the girl in Parkour class looking for role models who send hard. It’s for the athletes needing motivation to explore their city. It’s for the practitioner looking for new ways to move, and for everyone who played with the idea of giving Parkour a try and hasn’t found the courage to do it yet. If you like to move, this film is for you.

Hacking Millions of Modems (and Investigating Who Hacked My Modem)
Two years ago, something very strange happened to me while working from my home network. I was exploiting a blind XXE vulnerability that required an external HTTP server to smuggle out files, so I spun up an AWS box and ran a simple Python webserver to receive the traffic from the vulnerable server.

'Absolute miracle' breakthrough provides recipe for zero-carbon cement
Concrete and steel production are major sources of CO2 emissions, but a new solution from Cambridge could recycle both at the same time. Throwing old concrete into steel-processing furnaces not only purifies iron but produces “reactivated cement” as a byproduct. If done using renewable energy, the…
