Christian Heilmann gave a talk on hacking and innovation at a university hack challenge. He defines hacking as altering systems to do what you want using available resources, and sees it as a way to have fun and drive unrestrained innovation. He encourages attendees to find something annoying with current systems and build workarounds. To hack effectively, one needs access to data sources, the data itself, and ways to reach users. He provides examples of his own hacks that make systems more accessible or filter data for specific uses. The talk aims to show attendees their potential and get feedback on explanations of development resources.
