Narwhal is a gathering point for two separate (though closely related) ideas in security:

* There needs to be a space in security for people who don’t do red team work—policy, compliance, and academia are critical parts of security.
* Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a space for people who didn’t hate on education, diverse backgrounds, and/or anything that reminded them there was more than one way to do and/or be security?

The upshot is that we're a friendly, deeply-intersectional group of nerds. Narwhal spins out working groups for new work all the time, and we'll bring the ones that wish to come with us to camp!

Joining us for the first time in 2024 is the Narwhal Amateur Radio Society (https://nars.narwhal.be), our ham radio club, who will be demonstrating ham radio hijinks for the masses.

[[File:SpitzerStock.jpeg|400px|The spitzerStock]]

Born in a somewhat-fictitious East German country in the middle of what would come to be known as the "Zwischenfall mit Bierkäsesuppe," the young Mycobia knew at once she wanted to specialize in the art of baking. "To be a baker is the highest purpose to which anyone can devote themselves," she once said; "balancing butter, flour, and sugar to create confectionary is humanity's greatest achievement."

She was six when she said that, however, so once she found sex, drugs, alcohol, rock music, and something she describes only as "the spitzerStock," she decided that angry muscle relaxing was more her thing. Join Madame Tubercula for a remedy for a pulled muscle, an arthritic knee, or "It's not what it looks like, I swear I did this soldering." While Madame Tubercula is not (for legal reasons, moral reasons, and in one unimportant country, warrant reasons) a "medical doctor," she is board-certified [1] and wears a white coat [2], so we trust her. She's armed with an array of muscle relaxants from the foam roller and lacrosse ball to the aforementioned spitzerStock, so you'll figure out what works for your pain needs and maybe learn a thing or two.

Available during advertised hours only, but accepts bribes to advertise additional hours.

[1]: In this case the certification was that she was holding a board and had a mean look in her eye.

[2]: As far as we can tell, it was stolen from an Elvis impersonator.

Cancelled due to fire restrictions at Doe Bay. Sorry!

Everyone's familiar with the S'more: a congealed mass of burned carnauba wax mixed with sugar, a deeply crap Hershey's chocolate slab, and whatever graham crackers one could find at the gas station. This is good, just, and right. But couldn't there be more?

For the first time, Narwhal Village hosts what we intend to be a recurring tradition: the S'More Invitational. Come, make a s'more, and show us what a *good* s'more looks like.

= Nurse Log =

== Invitation ==

Come decorate pill bottles. Specifically, write the name of a medication (legal or illegal, no judgment) that has helped you on a bottle, and decorate the bottle however you’d like; we have metallic and black Sharpies, puff paints, and googly eyes. When you’ve finished:

# Take a lid, put it on a spot on either log where you’d like to put your bottle, top down. The pins should go through the hole in the lid.
# Take an LED, put it into the pins. The silver pin socket is where the long leg goes.
# Add your bottle to the top.
# Feel free to add more than one bottle. Don’t worry about duplicated medications with other people.

== Artist’s Statement ==

'''What got you here today? What’s helping you get to the next place?'''

Medications don’t really “fix you” or “put you back to normal.” They help change you in a positive direction, because life only moves forward. So antidepressants don’t put you back to before your brain crashed, they help you live with your brain now. Hormones (as I understand them; YMMV) don’t undo the old experience of gender, but help you forge ahead. Etc. A log in the forest continues to grow after the tree falls, but that growth isn’t “putting it back to normal.” It’s helping to create a new path forward.

This project is a meditation (or maybe a metaphor, or perhaps a cardioid?) on all of that. It’s participatory, because while I have some experience from my medications, I think other people should get to include theirs as well—a nurse log carries forward a whole forest, not just one small tree. It’s also designed to embolden people to say “yes, I take these things to make my life better,” whether they’re hormones or antidepressants or stimulants or horse dewormers. People are invited to write drug names on bottles, decorate them with the markers, googly eyes, and puff paint, and then install an LED and place them in the logs.

The log is alive in many ways, still; it has blue oyster mushrooms growing in it (hopefully fruiting during ToorCamp!), the moss is alive, and more will come as it breaks down. After ToorCamp, I’ll remove all the plastic bits, partially bury the log, and let the piece become part of our native plant gardens. May our experiences nourish us all.

== Artist’s Pretentious Statement (next page) ==

Artist’s Pretentious Statement
A meditation on death, rebirth, growth, and change. These two logs came from damaged trees (one black locust, on a playfield in the New Holly neighborhood of Seattle, and one maple, at a private home in the Othello neighborhood of Seattle), and I have initiated the process of decomposition by adding blue oyster mushroom spawn and substrate to the interior of the log. In addition, I have added (and invite others to add) pill bottles decorated with the name of a drug you take, along with any other things (paints, eyes, markers) you think embody the spirit of the drug. Thus the log both embodies “nursing” in the sense of a nurse log in the forest, and in the sense of prescribing medication to help someone forge ahead.

Something, something, Bauhaus. Something, something, revenge.

== Media ==

Black locust log (large) and maple log (small), blue oyster mushrooms + growing medium, RasPiZeroW + LED controller + LEDs + wires, pill bottles, some hot glue (a lot of hot glue)

"To be a baker is the highest purpose to which anyone can devote themselves," she once said; "balancing butter, flour, and sugar to create confectionary is humanity's greatest achievement."

She was six when she said that, however, so once she found sex, drugs, alcohol, rock music, and something she describes only as "the spitzerStock," she decided that angry muscle relaxing was more her thing.

"To be a baker is the highest purpose to which anyone can devote themselves," she once said; "balancing butter, flour, and sugar to create confectionary is humanity's greatest achievement."

She was six when she said that, however, so once she found sex, drugs, alcohol, rock music, and something she describes only as "the spitzerStock," she decided that angry muscle relaxing was more her thing. Join Madame Tubercula for a remedy for a pulled muscle, an arthritic knee, or "It's not what it looks like, I swear I did this soldering." While Madame Tubercula is not (for legal reasons, moral reasons, and in one unimportant country, warrant reasons) a "medical doctor," she is board-certified [1] and wears a white coat [2], so we trust her. She's armed with an array of muscle relaxants from the foam roller and lacrosse ball to the aforementioned spitzerStock, so you'll figure out what works for your pain needs and maybe learn a thing or two.

Available during advertised hours only, but accepts bribes to advertise additional hours.

[1]: In this case the certification was that she was holding a board and had a mean look in her eye.

[2]: As far as we can tell, it was stolen from an Elvis impersonator.

Narwhal is a gathering point for two separate (though closely related) ideas in security:

* There needs to be a space in security for people who don’t do red team work—policy, compliance, and academia are critical parts of security.
* Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a space for people who didn’t hate on education, diverse backgrounds, and/or anything that reminded them there was more than one way to do and/or be security?

Joining us for the first time in 2024 is the Narwhal Amateur Radio Society, our ham radio club, who will be demonstrating ham radio hijinks for the masses.

Everyone's familiar with the S'more: a congealed mass of burned carnauba wax mixed with sugar, a deeply crap Hershey's chocolate slab, and whatever graham crackers one could find at the gas station. This is good, just, and right. But couldn't there be more?

For the first time, Narwhal Village hosts what we intend to be a recurring tradition: the S'More Invitational. Come, make a s'more, and show us what a *good* s'more looks like.
