Persist, resist, stitch
Philo
39th Chaos Communication Congress (39C3): Power Cycles · Day 2 · Saal Ground
Philo's compelling talk, "Persist, resist, stitch," delves into the often-overlooked history and profound significance of textile crafts as tools for **steganography**, **resistance**, and **personal well-being**. Challenging the patriarchal tendency to dismiss these activities as mere "feminine hobbies," Philo meticulously illustrates how knitting, sewing, and other crafts have served as ingenious covers for espionage, vehicles for coded communication, and powerful mediums for social and political protest across centuries.
