-Call for Papers
----------------
-
-There will be regular talk sessions this year and we are calling for
-optional talk proposals of around 30-60 minutes covering either
-technological or philosophical topics (rants are welcome as well). Each
-proposal should contain
-
-* the name of the author
-* an abstract written in English
-* presumably reference links to related ideas or topics
-
-and be sent to [admins@suckless.org](mailto:admins@suckless.org)
-_until 2019-06-30_. We don't expect a paper or slide set prior to the
-conference! If you can not attend on a certain day, please add a note
-about it so we can fine-tune the schedule accordingly.
-
-Conference Registration
------------------------
-
-The accommodation fee will be between 95-150€ and includes everything.
-It will be due upon reservation confirmation.
-Please contact us if and why you want to request sponsorship for the
-accomodation; nobody should be left out for financial reasons.
-
-In order to be able to arrange the conference properly, we also kindly
-ask all of you who want to attend the event to _register until
-2019-09-01_ by sending a mail to
-[admins@suckless.org](mailto:admins@suckless.org)
-with your name and clear message that you will definitely attend.
-Places are limited (!) and secured on a first mail basis. We will inform
-all successful registrants within 2 weeks after receiving their

+### Machine Translation, Manu Raster
+
+The topic I would like to present is "Machine Translation" and it is in
+the spirit of Douglas Hofstadters destructive critique¹ and my own
+critique of Franz-Josef Ochs² concepts of translation from a history of
+science point of view. In comparison to the early beginnings (Bar-Hillel
+1960 "The Present Status of Automatic Translation of Languages") little
+progress has been made. In particular I will explain
+
+- why engineers use intermediate languages (IL) and why they suck
+ - analogies between code generation and literature translation
+ - keywords: philologists and barbarians, the babelfish-device, binary-size sanity
+- how translation fails on IL-level and surface level (destination language)
+- what a good computer assisted translation tool for advanced users can
+ achieve such as an Acme-based tool³
+
+and present reproducable examples where Google Translate™ and its
+epigones fail systematically.

+
+### Sierpinski on Flector, Gergely Bencsik, Tı́mea Fekete
+
+168 hours long noise from sierpinski triangles
+
+The topic of generative and low-complexity art is not new. Jürgen Schmidhuber identified low-complexity art as the
+computer age verson of minimalism[1] in 1997, and drew up basic goals and rules about this genre in visual art. The
+ideology of low-complexity art also usable in musical methodology with relevant rules and goals.
+
+In this work we will describe a structural noise-music genre album and the low-complexity background of it. This
+project is about a small C language stack that generates a 168 hours long music album into a large data blob that can be
+separated to smaller chunks. The album, Sierpinski on Flector also uses a generation method[2] that is been presented by
+Ville-Matias Heikkilä, known as byte-beat.
